The Average NFL Fan Will Watch 23.5 Hours Of Commercials And Only 4.1 Hours Of Game Action.

After a six-year hiatus, Hank Williams Jr. is returning to Monday Night Football this NFL season, again asking America, “Are you ready for some football?”

But basic math shows the country singer should be asking us more about our appetite for some commercials.

The average NFL fan will watch nearly 24 hours of commercials during the 17-week regular season and only 4 hours of actual game action. Those numbers, based on a Streaming Observer analysis, come at a time when NFL ratings are in a significant decline, perhaps largely in part due to the high volume of commercials that provide the league with about $3.1 billion annually.

Anyway, this will probably get moved for a thread about Christian McCaffrey's testicles or something.  But, anyway, this is one of the many reasons why Red Zone is a sound investment on NFL Sundays.

Wow. I can't imagine sitting through commercials like that. I see commercials as merely the perfect time to grab a snack or beverage, or make room for more beverages in the bladder. 

Yeah, that too. I don't drink beer anymore but, when I did, commercials were for peeing, lol.

We get it.

So this beg the question- do you actually watch Panthers games in their entirety?

asking for a friend 

Yes, I watch every Panthers game in their entirety, but during commercials I switch to Red Zone.  Which, coincidentally shows the scores for every other game, and the Panthers game.  You weren't asking for a friend either, don't be an ass.

    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
    • Theilen is about to retire. I dont care about him sticking around. Lets say you did and he retires at the end of the year. Now that connection is gone next year and it's just another excuse for regression that was just held off. 
    • Short term is the key point. Those first two games without him where pretty bad. They still aren't back to where they were offensively but they are getting better. Hopefully Tet continues to improve and Coker eventually returns - and stays healthy.
