I watch for the commercials.
If you are on cable (and use a cable box) or will stream it online, let me suggest that you catch the commercials off-line on YouTube.
The "No Fans Left" league needs to be de-funded. The only way to do that is to reduce their ratings so they don't get the advertiser revenue.
I thought everybody watched for the commercials, since there is about 12-13 minutes of actual play in a 3.5 to 4 hour TV event. Before this kneeling crap started, I knew serious fans that stopped watching games in the traditional sense (actually sitting there ass down for 3.5/4 hours in front of the TV); they might watch shows with live highlights (of all games being played simultaneously), but the days of having sh!t (products and ideas) sold to them in over 3 hours of commercials were over.
I have a heater core and automatic transmission cooler lines to replace.
In prior years, I made it a point to NOT watch the commercials as they added nothing at all to the game.

Don't!!! If you care about America Patriotism!!!
Same old, same old. Watching a bunch of idiots glorifying themselves for making a play. Unending and ridiculous penalty calls by refs, the ridiculous review of what is a catch. Philly v. Bellicheat and his team of cheaters, a bunch of ingrates, who’d be collecting bottles if it weren’t for their God given talents, disrespecting our flag and American patriots.Of course you can’t ignore the crap display at halftime. The NFL can go to hell!
I have not watched an NFL game all season and am not going to start now. Let NFL advertising revenues continue to plummet until they either clean house or fold so a new league can rise from the wreckage.
Another one of those Yahoo polls that doesn’t match results. When ratings were down 10% they said 30% of fans were boycotting, now they’re saying 16% are going to boycott the SB. That math just don’t work.
The past few years, the commercials have been awful.
