“Monday Night Football” put up some huge TV ratings when the 49ers beat the Browns 31-3.

According to TVByTheNumbers, the game was watched by more than 11.125 million people. That’s several hundred thousand more than how many people tuned in for Steelers/Bengals matchup last week.

People love their football, and the evidence is in the numbers. Every single primetime game we’ve had this season as far as I know has put up huge numbers.

Even in a blowout like the one we had Monday night, the numbers are still huge. That’s a good sign for ESPN, the NFL and networks everywhere.

It’s always a good sign for the soul of this country when people are still tuning in for football games. As long as we’re watching the greatest sport ever invented, then we’re going to be okay.

Through the first several weeks of the season, there’s been no issue at all with the numbers. In fact, they’ve been gigantic.
