There are other reasons besides Kaepernick, although he certainly has not helped. One MNF was going up against a Presidential Debate. Other games have not involved evenly matched teams. Finally, the announcing. John Gruden has a lot of knowledge, but that does not translate into announcing skills. When he is openly rooting for one of the teams (for example, in this week's Giants/Vikings game he stated that he hoped the Vikings K would make a FG) it turns off audiences. On a national broadcast, the announcers should not be so overt in rooting for one of the teams. |
