The Dallas Cowboys have won three straight games, and their Thanksgiving win against the Kansas City Chiefs was the most-watched NFL regular-season game in league history.
The game was watched by an average of 57.2 million people and peaked with 61.4 million viewers, an increase of almost 50% from last year’s game.
The Cowboys beat the Chiefs 31-28 in overtime at AT&T Stadium.
There's a reason the Dallas Cowboys, who haven't gone all the way since 1996, are in more nat'l games than any other team. Ratings. Some fans love them. Many more despise them.
Fox reported its Thanksgiving game, the Green Bay Packers at the Detroit Lions, was watched by 47.7 million fans.
The numbers should come as no surprise, as the Cowboys have been one of if not the NFL’s most popular team for decades and continue to be a massive draw for NFL fans. The Chiefs, of course, have been the league’s hottest team in recent years with Super Bowl victories in 2019, ‘22 and ‘23.
