11/7 – Ravens-Steelers Earns 14.2 Overnight Rating On “Sunday Night Football”

Sunday Night Football was the No. 1 broadcast on Sunday night and led NBC to another Sunday night win, according to overnight data released today by The Nielsen Company. Last night’s game on NBC, in which the Ravens beat the Steelers 23-20, registered a 14.2 overnight rating and a 23 share, up 15 percent from last year’s Week 9 game (Cowboys- Packers 12.4/19), and is the fourth best overnight rating for Sunday Night Football this season. Last night’s Sunday Night Football broadcast won the night while facing original network programs. NBC led the night among metered markets in primetime (7-11 p.m. ET) with a 10.8/17, topping the 7.9/12 for second-place Fox, which was aided by an NFL overrun of the close games between the Giants and Patriots and Packers and Chargers. NBC also beat CBS (7.3/11) by 48 percent and ABC (5.1/8) by 112 percent.
