As you might expect, very few things can compete with the NFL when it comes to TV ratings. That was again the case this past Thursday when the Cleveland Browns took on the Pittsburgh Steelers.
CLEVELAND, Ohio –
The game, which the Browns won on their home turf 29-17, drew a 5.4 rating and an average audience of 11.03 million viewers on Amazon Prime. Of those numbers, 1.18 million viewers came from local simulcasts in Cleveland and Pittsburgh , according to Nielsen. It wasn’t enough to match the previous week’s Chargers-Chiefs game, which had a 6.4 rating and averaged 13.03 million viewers for Thursday Night Football’s premiere on Amazon. But the Browns-Steelers matchup decimated everything else on television Thursday. No other program drew more than 5.5 million viewers, including Thursday’s MLB on Fox telecast.
The ratings for the Browns-Steelers were also well ahead of last season’s Week 3 Thursday Night Football game between the Carolina Panthers and Houston Texans, which aired on the NFL Network and averaged just 7.4 million viewers.
