The reason (most) people aren't coming to PBS is because of the regime in charge.  Since the team had that post-2010 meltdown, attendance has been down.  Five consecutive playoff losses haven't helped.  All of which predates any of the perceived issues with today's NFL.  Talking to coworkers who had endzone seats but gave them up before the 2017 season, their reason for finally throwing in the towel was yet another season of the Mike & Marvin show.  It was just more of the same old same old, and it finally got to be too much for them.  Apparently, some people don't have as high a tolerance level for that as ticket-buying chumps like me.  

I dropped my season tickets in 2008 after having them since 1980, and that's exactly why I did. Not to say I haven't enjoyed a game here and there at PBS since then, but I far more enjoy the games now in front of a big screen, with replay and our game day thread, all in a comfortable environment complete with good food and drinks that don't cost an arm and a leg. Also don't miss the mouthy drunks that seemed to grow in number the last few years I was there.
