Led by a battle at the top of the AFC North, last Sunday’s singleheader window on CBS had a solid increase in ratings.
CBS drew a 9.8 final rating for NFL coverage featuring Steelers/Bengals last Sunday, up 13% from an 8.7 for last year’s comparable window on FOX, and the highest rating for the NFL singleheader since Week 6.
Sunday’s telecast marks the second-highest rated singleheader of the season on CBS.
The Steelers/Bengals game, which aired in most of the country, drew a 42.2/72 in Pittsburgh and a 39.9/66 in Cincinnati.
