NFL Cools Off But Still Commands Top Slots: The Week in Sports Ratings

Joel Embiid #21 of the Philadelphia 76ers dribbles by Al Horford #42 of the Boston Celtics during the fourth quarter at the Wells Fargo Center on November 15, 2023.

The NFL continued to dominate the sports ratings field last week while NBA games secured the top spots among nonfootball telecasts.

CBS’s November 19 late-afternoon NFL window — mostly featuring the New York Jets-Buffalo Bills game — was the most watched live sports event last week with 20.9 million viewers, according to Nielsen ratings published by SportsMedia Watch. The telecast marked the first time this season that the most-watched NFL game failed to top the 21 million-viewer mark, SportsMedia Watch said.
