Counting the numbers of people who watched after the fact on YouTube is not how TV ratings work, my friend. 

As it happened, live, the numbers are quite different. 

How many people saw JFK assassinated live on TV? A couple hundred thousand. How many people have seen it after the fact? Hundreds of millions.

I'm certain the numbers will be down year-over-year once the TV ratings come out.

I mean honestly even though the superbowl and the halftime sucked as for as the nfl is concerned and all they care about is money makes sense to them.  They have the current nfl fans mostly american non spanish speaking and thats not really gonna change nfl fans are going to watch the superbowl and the nfl it just doesnt change.  What they dont have is the spanish speaking market, they tend to prefer other sports.  However put a huge spanish speaking performer on for the halftime show and the nfl can draw in the spanish fans and just keep making more and more money.  Still doesnt change that it and the superbowl was horrible but I at least understand why the nfl went that route.  I joke about kpop for the next superbowl halftime show but would really increase the asian viewership for the superbowl so I could kinda see it.

The 2025 Super Bowl holds the record for most live viewers at 127.7M (until last night's numbers are posted).

The 1982 Super Bowl holds the highest household TV rating at 49.1.

The NFL has a contract with RocNation (owned and operated by Jay Z) to manage the Super Bowl halftime show since 2019. He selects the performers, assists with the production and handles everything about the show. 

If people have a problem with the halftime show, yelling at the sky (NFL) is not who they need to speak with.

The NFL can change who they employ as their Super Bowl halftime overseers.  It's not like this partnership is set in stone.

I’ve said that something was significantly off when we played New England back in September. I think we just had an ass game. We went toe to toe with the Rams twice and performed about the same level against the Seahawks that the Patriots did. That’s promising going into next year.

So the next time the NFL seeks RFPs, go for it.

Apparently, the NFL has no issues with the partnership, although, it's obvious some fans do.

But, if people are honestly basing their decision whether or not to watch a football game depends on the halftime show, there's not much left to say.

The Pats have a big conundrum with Will Campbell. Unless he was dealing with a seriously limiting injury issue in the playoffs he ain't an NFL LT. The Pats gave up 29 QB pressures in the playoffs, the most ever. Will Campbell gave up 14 pressures last night, the most by any OL in any game this season and the most in a playoff game in nearly a decade. To put that in perspective, Mike Remmers was credited with 7 pressures allowed in SB50.

He might have to kick inside to OG.

Not sure I have ever seen a lineman look so weak as a Campell looked yesterday. Dude got bullrushed and pushed backwards 5+ yards on like half of the pass plays.

Yeah, he got absolutely dog walked last night. Just no other way to frame it.

We all still talk about how awful Remmers was in SB50 and Campbell gave up twice as many pressures last night as Remmers did in that game. Honestly, it's gotta go down as one of the all-time worst individual OL performances in SB history. He was so awful throughout the playoffs that unless there was an injury reason behind it, I don't see how they can continue forward with him at LT.

Not sure I would rely on AI for accurate results...

And I think the only way to have watched the Turning Point one was on Youtube, whereas most people that watched Bad Bunny watched it live on NBC/Peacock.
 

I won't even get into how terrible of a metric views are when I can watch a video for 5 seconds on Youtube and it counts as a view. Plus the many bots people can have to inflate views.

You can’t be serious. They posted it on YouTube after it was performed live on TV. The television ratings should be released soon.

    • Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways. 
    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
