Total viewership for the game was 8.5 million viewers (TV and Digital), which makes it the most-watched exclusive Thursday Night Football game since Week 3 of the 2018 season when the Browns beat the Jets.

Bengals-Jaguars was television's most-watched telecast of the day.

Burrow vs Lawrence to be more specific.

Facts, willing to bet a bunch of college fans tuned in.

On paper that looked like it would be the least watched in history.

FOX missed an opportunity, but they always do that crap when Bengals play TNF - that would be the only TNF game they refuse to televise.

Burrow vs Lawrence

A continuation of a college rivalry.

Some more than others…

I doubt Jared Goff vs Baker Mayfield would produce the same ratings Burrow vs Lawrence did.

Something tells me this won't be our last primetime game this season....

At least it lived up to the hype (and we won).

not now maybe...  But This was the last 2 1OA going at it. and both still have college fans that might have tuned in etc.

Yes, they are the last two, but they’re also two of the best college QB’s of all time, that also happened to both win championships. I think these two will draw ratings for a long time.

I definitely think this gets us flexed into some Prime Time games, and although I know some are against it, I hope it gets us back on Hard Knocks.

CJ Uzomah would be immensely entertaining on Hard Knocks.

Heck yeah.... and I don't know why so many are opposed to it in prior conversations. We've been on twice and won the Division both times.

Well, I know we'll definitely be playing in primetime on Feb 13, 2022.
