NFL Network’s second game of the season saw a steep decline in viewership.
Thursday’s Dolphins/Panthers game drew a 1.9/3 U.S. rating and 3 million viewers on NFL Network, down 30% in ratings and 32% in viewership from last year’s comparable Jets/Patriots matchup (2.7, 4.4 mil).
Additionally, the game was off 21% and 23%, respectively, from last week’s Bears/49ers game (2.4, 3.9 mil).
The game outdrew both NBA games on TNT and college football on ESPN Thursday night, but was no match for Project Runway on Lifetime (2.9, 4.3 mil).
