Super Bowl Ratings Slip To 8-Year Low As Eagles Score Historic Win

However, Sunday’s Super Bowl LII also saw a decline of 5% in metered market results from the last time NBC had the big game back on February 1, 2015 when the Patriots faced off against then champs the Seattle Seahawks. Overall, last night’s game peaked in the high stakes fourth quarter with 52.2/74.

All in all, Super Bowl LII is currently the lowest rated since Super Bowl XLIV in 2010 when the New Orleans Saints thrashed the Indianapolis Colts on CBS.

Even before those results were in of last night’s game, another voice was added to the chorus of praise to the finally victorious Eagles. While Donald Trump passed on the traditional Presidential sit down with the Super Bowl broadcasting network on Sunday, the Tom Brady pal did take to social media for a few words after all the hoopla had left the field at Minneapolis’ U.S. Bank Stadium:

Congratulations to the Philadelphia Eagles on a great Super Bowl victory! 7:54 PM - 4 Feb 2018

Actually, I think it would be healthy for the nfl to shut down half its teams and have Sunday be the only game day.

It would also make 'em eat a whole bunch of humble pie, acknowledging they don't know what they are doing right now.

Well, given the dnc slush fund has collapsed, the nfl sjw slush fund will meet the same fate.

when is the super bowl

Good one!

I watched most of it mainly because I figured people would be talking about the commercials today. Most of the commercials weren't worth watching, but it turned out to be a great game, with the outcome uncertain until the final play.

Now no sports to watch on TV until the spring training games on the MLB channel...at any rate, sports I care to watch.

You could watch the ads on YouTube without watching the game.

[RckyRaCoCo]

Watched zero, tuned-out all the hype before/during/after.

I survived. /s

Binge-watched Eric O, Scanner Danner, Ivan, Keith, others...auto diagnostic/repair videos all day...

“Has personality with Mark Woman and does what no other car show does, informs and educates with how-tos.”

Love Mark’s knowledge. Hate his personality. Better now that the daughter is on and they dumped her goofy husband.

Just saw this local CDC commercial.
Pretty lame, but good

One of my sons (20) walked in to find us all playing card games with one of those animal earth documentaries on and asked about the Super Bowl. (He only cares about the halftime show music performances usually)

I summed it up very quickly and matter of fact. “The NFL approves of its players thinking all first responders hate all black people and that is not true. They are ok with the players not standing for our flag, the one our servicemembers put their lives on the line for.” (He has many black friends and two of his best friends are in the military, many people in his sport play for military teams).

We made it through the whole season never watching a single bit of nfl on our TVs.

Thank you!!

It was a great Arena or flag football game. or equal to what the Big 12 plays on Saturdays but not football.

The 1/2time show was the worst one I’ve seen. And I did see his other 1/2time show with the exhibitionist years ago. This one started out raunchy, got stupid, and never improved. A few weeks ago, my 14yo daughter asked me who he was. When she looked on google, she had to spell out his boy band’s name and didn’t get it... Just like her old man, who heard them and their name, lost interest so quick that the name didn’t matter or register until some young smarney GenXer had to tell me how to pronounce it.

[Dixie Yooper]

I did boycott football until I saw how outspoke many of the Eagles players were about their faith

It's like the Pat's got beat by a bunch of Holy Rollers :)

[minnesota_bound]

Historic win?
What makes it historic?

[Truthoverpower]

Did you see that hit in the first half ? Where the receiver was out cold

Classic NFC east defense

That was a game changer

NFC east is 3-1 vs Brady in SB

[cld51860]

Me too.

[dfwgator]

NFC East only division with all four teams with at least a SB Title.

I watch this instead. Shuffle Pass to the ....

I’m sure every Eagle that received $107,000 for the victory will redistribute the bounty with the less fortunate.

I didn’t say it was good because it was high scoring did I?

These two teams were tied statistically as the best two teams in the NFL. It was hard-fought, had few penalties, one punt, and was close the whole game, decided in the last minutes/seconds.

I thoroughly enjoyed it as did many others. Sorry if you didn’t.
