BaumerJet Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Ala USA Today: CBS sets 12-year TV ratings high with broadcast of Jets' win vs. Patriots Another NFL weekend, another TV ratings milestone reached. CBS Sports recorded its best rating in 12 years with its broadcast of the New York Jets' victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday. The 16.7 rating was up 8% from last year's coverage and continues the trend from Week 1, when the NFL had its most-viewed opening weekend since 1987. CBS' 16.7 rating includes companion broadcasts of the Houston-Washington and Jacksonville-San Diego games, but most of the country saw Patriots-Jets during that window. Overall, CBS is drawing a 13.0 ratings for all of its broadcasts through two weeks, which is up 12% from last year. The NFL set a 19-year high in viewership last season with an average of 16.6 million viewers per game and the Saints' win in Super Bowl XLIV was the most-watched TV show of all time. Update, 2:29 p.m. ET: USA TODAY's Michael Hiestand reported that NBC's broadcast of the Giants-Colts Manning Bowl on Sunday was down 8% from the Giants-Cowboys game broadcast in the same window last year. CBS sets 12-year TV ratings high with broadcast of Jets' win vs. Patriots - USA TODAY Gang Green outdoes Big Blue in the national markets - AGAIN! Kinda glad we lost the unseen toss in the commissioner's office! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
