Let's say, hypothetically, that the problem of the millionaire ingrates declining to stand and/or honor our Flag/Country/ and Veterans was miraculously solved.
The game viewership numbers would not jump back to where it was.
That is because those of us who were captives to our recliners during NFL games are finding a world of interesting and productive things to do with our time, and we (at least in my case, I) find that I'm not missing a thing, and I'm gaining useful free time.
And, it's lot like all would be forgiven. The NFL chooses to ignore us, and they cannot "unring" that bell. We American patriots seem to have astonishingly long memories.

Yes, it’s a “stop loss” situation right now. CBS executives and board members have a fiduciary duty to their stock holders. They should demand that the NFL fix this toot sweet.
I was in a parking lot in Jacksonville a few miles from the stadium when a plane with this message flew over. When I duckduckgo searched (screw GOOGLE), I see there were several stories about the plane.
I have a sister/brother in law who have had season tickets to JAGS since they started in the 90's. Even they called the JAGS office and told them that they were dropping their tickets next season. I won't go to an NFL game even when I am offered free tickets. The drunks and the NFL take a knee traitors all get on my nerves......
