Another metric - No One Watching the Saints (Teams that pulled the most and fewest viewers in 2024)

I think these numbers are getting misinterpreted for a few reasons.
1. These numbers prove why NOLA is such a viable market. Covering multiple states with no pro team until Atlanta.
2. Even with LSU bring their only in state competition, the Saints average is almost double the highest rated LSU game this season. (USC/LSU at 8 million.
3. After the top five, the variance between franchises is only a few million.
4. The only franchises that really should be worried are Tennessee and Jacksonville. The Raiders will survive and become more viable the longer they’re in Vegas. Mainly because the Raiders fanbase is so huge and they’re less than 10 years in Vegas.
Tennessee and Jacksonville are nearing 3 decades in their respective markets and barely average higher than a Thursday Night MAC game.
