Are You Watching Tonight Without Fantasy Football?

Post by Greg Ambrosius » Thu Nov 19, 2015 3:03 pm

Okay, it's a stinker of a matchup on Thursday Night Football tonight: Tennessee at Jacksonville. Even though both teams are still in the hunt for the AFC South Division title, neither is playoff-worthy. In fact, both franchises are rebuilding.

So here's the obvious question: Would you watch this game without fantasy football?

I hope the leagues and networks know that more than half of their audience tonight is fantasy football players who are watching just for the results. I'm not sure the fan bases outweigh the fantasy community on this one.

What do you think: Would you watch this game tonight if you weren't playing fantasy football? Bring the fun chatter back to the boards. Inquiring minds want to know.

The NFL can thank fantasy football for their steadily increasing rating over the last decade. Without fantasy football (and gambling) the NFL would be a much more regionally watched sport.

MJD once called the Jaguars "America's Team"

So clearly, AMERICA will be watching tonight. :D

I for one am intrigued into the debut of David Cobb.

Hoping for some points being scored. Thursdays and Mondays have sucked. Be nice to see some fireworks on offense.
