A 6-12% decline YoY, compounded, is a slow bleed at best.
It looks like the NFL has 10 years left, at least. And that’s too long.
You’re assuming that this trend will continue. I’m not so sure. It might settle down to this new normal and they’ll be happy to live with that.
I can even see some addicts that have temporarily given up the opiate regressing and sneaking back, unless the players and the league keep being stupid.
