Huge ratings opening game - pally - 09-13-2022
Last season, the Bengals were involved in multiple high rating regular season games. Sunday's game had the highest rated opening weekend game for CBS since 1998. This weekend's game against the Cowboys will be the #1 game on CBS.
Big number for CBS with Bengals-Steelers in national window.

17.4 million viewers is best for network in Week 1 since NFL returned to CBS in 1998.
+21% from week 1 in 2021.
Sunday doubleheader was CBS’ 3rd best for Week 1 since 1998.

Behold the power of Burrow.
And those deplorable Stiller fans.

And of course we get a big audience and lay an egg...

Mayhaps we are starting to get some bandwagon fans.
(I know we've got some converted Browns fans thanks to Deshaun Watson and the Browns' totally ridiculous front office).

You must have missed the last 5/6 games of last season, opie.

Nope. The team owed it to its fans to come out and look good on the home field in the first game after a Super Bowl appearance.

Ah, okay they "owed" it to the fans because they made it to the Super Bowl last season. Makes sense.
Actually no it doesn't.

Way to misread a post. They DO owe it to the fans ESPECIALLY in the home opener to not play like stumblebums and instead to play their best.

Teams don't owe fans anything.
