The Los Angeles Rams aren’t likely going to enjoy reading the results.Fred Roggin ✔ @FredNBCLALA TV Rankings1. #Raiders-Panthers2. Broncos-Chiefs3. #USC-Notre Dame (Sat)4.#Rams-Saints5.Michigan-Ohio State(Sat)6.#Chargers -Texans7:13 AM - 28 Nov 2016 The Rams not only were beaten out by the Raiders in their own market, they didn’t even beat out a college game between USC and a bad Notre Dame team.The Raiders leading the way in L.A. ratings likely won’t surprise Eric Dickerson, who’s gone on record lambasting the Rams several times in 2016. But for the Raiders, it serves to further solidify the team’s ever-growing popularity.Few teams are as popular in America as the Dallas Cowboys and Oakland Raiders are when they’re good. However, the way this current version of the Raiders is constructed makes them more appealing than previous incantations.Derek Carr has the arm, leadership, late game heroics and personality to captivate any football fan. Meanwhile, Khalil Mack has the warrior spirit that endears him to those who respect the roots of the franchise.Moreover, the team’s coach Jack Del Rio is exactly what a Raiders coach should be. Or, as former Raiders coach and Hall of Famer John Madden so aptly put it, “when he walks into a room, [you know] a man just walked in the room,” per The Mercury News.L.A. is known for having a culture of instant gratification as well as possessing a short attention span. Present the city with a team that’s young, wins and is exciting, and they will embrace it even over a team located in their own zip code.While the Raiders have no reason to be interested in taking over the Cowboys’ moniker — “California’s Team” does have a nice ring to it.Our sincere condolences go out to Rams fans. by moklerman 8 years 7 months ago Total posts: 7680 Joined: Apr 17 2015 Bakersfield, CA Hall of Fame Re: Raiders Dwarf Rams in LA TV Ratings POST #2 TOPIC AUTHOR I wonder how many reasons there actually are to fire Fisher? by Hacksaw 8 years 7 months ago Total posts: 24523 Joined: Apr 15 2015 AT THE BEACH Moderator Raiders Dwarf Rams in LA TV Ratings POST #3 That's a report with SPIN you might expect from a Raiders new wire.

Superstar Raiders Dwarf Rams in LA TV Ratings POST #5 Last edited by TomSlick on Nov 29 2016, edited 1 time in total. I say good for the Raiders. I know LA Raider fans are not well loved, but I've never met a douche Raider fan here in the Bay Area. They've all been good blokes. Much better than Bay Area Niner fans.It wasn't that long ago when the RAMS bombed the Raiders in St. Louis (52-0, I think). The RAMS have gone nowhere since then and the Raiders are THE STORY of the NFL.Makes one kind of envious. Old race cars and the men and women who piloted these beasts are covered in Vintage Motorsport magazine. The eras covered are about 1900 to the year 2010 or so. Great writing and photography. by Hacksaw 8 years 7 months ago Total posts: 24523 Joined: Apr 15 2015 AT THE BEACH Moderator Raiders Dwarf Rams in LA TV Ratings POST #6 moklerman wrote:I agree that the tone of the article is Raiders friendly but the facts of the ratings aren't.

First and foremost unless they provide the actual ratings numbers their claim of "dwarfing" ratings is just a boast that isn't backed up. It's funny to brag about a ratings difference between different times and days. No kidding a 10am game drew less viewers than 1 pm and 5 pm games, truly a shocking revelation. Also it's revolutionary thinking that two teams with losing records yet again will draw less viewers than the AFC number one seed and the defending NFC champ and reigning MVP.

Rams drawing 8.7 compared to other games in the market at 12.9 doesn't sound too good.They are boring, they are losing and they couldn't even carry the "honeymoon" for a single season.

And the ratings in LA might be a smaller share than the numbers in StL but it provided more viewers. Kind of them also not pointing out the 84k people going to the games on Sunday's.
