Record SNF Audience
Twenty-one million viewers tuned in to NBC Sunday night to watch the Buffalo Bills dominate the Green Bay Packers 27-17. Sunday night supplied the most significant Week 8 SNF audience since 2015. Today official data indicates between NBC TV, Peacock, and other NBC sports platforms, 21.0 million fans witnessed the onslaught. The previous Week 8 matchup to top 21.0 million viewers saw Aaron Rodgers’ 6-0 Packers visiting Denver to play Peyton Manning’s 6-0 Broncos.

A portion of that record SNF Audience will tune in Sunday, as the 3-5 Packers will face the 1-6 Lions at 1 pm eastern time on Fox. It’s a must-win game for the Packers, who will then travel home to play the Cowboys and Titans and, on November 27th, travel to Philadephia to face the undefeated Eagles. Check out James Pompey’s analysis here for a detailed preview of the week 9 matchup. The Packers have designated De’Vondre Campbell and Shemar Jean-Charles as inactive. While David Bakhtiari, Elgton Jenkins, Allen Lazard, Preston Smith, and Christian Watson are listed as questionable. Aaron Rodgers does not have an injury designation. Rodgers has been restricted since week 7, due to an injury to his thumb on his throwing hand.
