This was the lowest rated Super Bowl in a decade. I wonder what the ratings for Saint Louis and kAnsas City were? I'm sure most will say the ratings were low because everyone is tired of seeing the Patriots, but for me, it was due to the way the NFL and "the Anus" treated Saint Louis. (90 percent that and 10 percent due to the kneeling saga). So happy the Rams lost - but really didn't care one way or the other.
"Via Austin Karp of Sports Business Journal, the Super Bowl drew an overnight rating of 44.9/68 share, the lowest-rated Super Bowl since the Pittsburgh Steelers-Arizona Cardinals matchup a decade ago.
That game, won by the Steelers, drew a 42.1.
The 44.9 for SBLIII marks a 5 percent drop in viewership over last year’s Patriots-Philadelphia Eagles game (47.4 rating), and a nearly 10 percent drop over Super Bowl XLIX, when the Patriots beat the Seattle Seahawks in a thriller (49.7 rating)."
