1. Only a sports media nerd with nothing going on in their life would get fixated on what I’m about to point out, but I can’t help myself.

Ratings are in for the two Week 18 Saturday games that aired last weekend on ABC/ESPN.

To no one’s surprise, the numbers were very good. Chiefs-Broncos generated 19.1 million viewers in the 4:30 p.m. window, while 20.3 million people watched Cowboys-Eagles at 8 p.m.

The Cowboys will always draw a big number no matter where and when they play, and the Chiefs nowadays are a draw thanks to their fun offense.
