Swift does have a far reaching fan base.

Not buying that the Chiefs are the "new America's Team".  If I recall, most of the country wanted the Eagles to win the SB last season. Lots of people, myself included, just like to see them lose.

I only watched for the really cool commercials

Completely agree. Reading that, I felt that was a crap statement as America's Team generally means they have a large plurality of fans. However, to follow the Cowgirls model, when they were considered America's Team, much of it was because almost no one had a "I don't care" about them attitude, those that weren't Cowgirl fans were mostly Cowgirl haters. From that aspect, I think the Chefs may be getting there.

That's typically what it is for me too, but once it was evident Patty was going to have a no good, very bad day and get smoked in the Super Bowl, I felt compelled to watch.

I bet most of her fans don't know the difference between a football and a baseball.

I watched with the sound off.  I've had enough of Romo. Unfortunately, I'll have to listen to him this week. At the bar in Tampa to watch the Bills side by side with the Bucs vs Pats. 

[Bruffalo]

I don't care about viewership, but I do care about chicken wings eaten per capita of that 31 million folks.

My wife isn't a Swiftie but she reads what the Swifties are saying and they were all crying about the hit Bishop laid on Kelce, which was perfectly legal. They are generally clueless about the rules and the mechanics of football.

Josh Allen is the most exciting player to watch in the NFL today.   He's charismatic, and by all accounts, seems to be a genuinely good person.   I think people hate-watch the Chiefs like they did the Cowboys and then the Patriots with Brady.  I suspect people watch Allen because they like him and its usually a good show. (AFCE and Chiefs fans excepted)

My wife is definitely a Swiftie over 50, and listens to the Kelce Brothers podcast weekly. HOWEVER, when Bishop hit Travis, she yelled "Take that you bum"!

Allen certainly has his share of haters, mainly B-more fans I would say.  Good lord...on X there's a massive contingent of Ravens fans who have 17 living rent free in their heads on a daily basis.  But you're right though. There's lots of people who don't necessarily like the Bills, but enjoy watching Josh Allen.

The old Manning vs. Brady AFC Regular season matchups were also very highly viewed. I think in addition to these being two powerhouse QB's with good teams there's also a familiarity fans have. These teams all but once since 2020 have faced off twice a season in mostly close matchups (2020 AFCCG and 2020 Regular season being the only ones where I can think of that weren't close games) so fans have come to not only be familiar with the rivalry but expect it.

PLEASE CAN THE BILLS WIN THE SB THIS YEAR

 

That's all I have to add

[Gregg]

The Bills vs Chiefs has become a great rivalry. Allen and Mahomes are this generations Brady and Manning.

I work with a huge Ravens fan and he thinks Lamar is a better QB than Josh.  I never challenge him on it, it's a work etiquette thing for me, I try not to make waves.

 

The bottom line is that Lamar chokes when it matters, and Josh plays his best when it matters.  I don't know how many more times we need to see that playout before people finally accept that Lamar simply does not rise to the occasion.   I think Ravens fans know it and subconsciously over compensate with the Allen hate because they know that, unlike their guy, Allen does not wilt under the bright lights.

 

If Allen had been drafted by Baltimore, the Ravens and Allen would have three Super Bowls already.

I am on vacation and could only listen to the radio broadcast of the game. Took me back as a kid listening to Bills’ games in the 60s and 70s, using my Tyco electric football field to keep track of where the line of scrimmage was after each play. Yahoo sports has a good game tracker.

Bills have been in 3 of the 5 most watches CBS regular season Sunday games since 1998.
