What are all thinking about the viewership data from Sunday night for Tom Brady and the Bucs beating the Saints?

I think the numbers speak for themselves. Whenever you’re north of 20 million, you’re doing great. When you start closing in on 30 million, you’re talking about insane viewership.

It was Tom Brady vs. Drew Brees in the playoffs for the first time, and clearly, people around the country were super excited.

Seeing as how it sounds like Brees’ playing days are over, I hope ever enjoyed it because it’s not going to happen again.
