According to Deadline, the game on Fox between Nick Foles and Tom Brady averaged 10.07 million viewers, which isn’t too bad for a “TNF” game. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Averaging north of 10 million viewers for a “TNF” game is a solid number. Is it incredible? No, but it’s not too bad.

If the league can continue to pump out some solid numbers, then everything will be fine. However, if we get more games that absolutely bomb, then Roger Goodell might want to be nervous.
