poor matchups? nah. GB has on of the biggest national followings in the league, and they were playing their second most hated rival, who has one of the best players in the nfl and a brand new stadium. and yet the ratings were down 11% from the sunday night game in week 2 last year, which also featured the vikings
No it didn't. The Sunday Night Game in Week 2 last year was Packers/Seahawks, which was billed as a rematch of the NFC Title Game from the previous year. In my opinion, that game had much more national interest than Packers/Vikings.
