This should dispel the narrative that Bengals are bad for the NFL, along with the Thursday night game that broke records and the playoff games that had super high viewing numbers.

I saw a lot of salty Chiefs and Titans fans calling for this to be the least watched in a long time, so glad to see that’s not the case.

I know they can get an estimate but places here were beyond crazy.

I personally love it because it hopefully means that the NFL will take note and not make our schedule impossible and also give us more primetime games!

How could you call yourself a Bengal fan and not know this???

Ratings are % of tvs on the game, but that does not mean more people watching than now.. That’s like saying Cincy had a higher rating than LA for this super bowl (which they did), but LA still had more people watching in LA because they have substantially more people.
