Not for long.
Definitely for long. The fact of the matter is EVERYBODY is suffering from ratings problems and even with the drop the NFL’s are still higher than anybody else’s. What’s really happened here is that they finally started taking the same hit everybody else was. Everybody else’s drop started about 5 years ago, the NFL has enough momentum they managed to avoid it for the first few years. But the drop looks to have leveled off, and the NFL is still the top of the heap.
