While some bemoan football on Christmas, the NFL loves it.
The Christmas night game between the San Diego Chargers and the Tennessee Titans pulled in an average of 6.9 million viewers on the NFL Network despite your friends and family being in eggnog comas.
The Dec. 19 Cowboys-Saints match-up was the most-watched game of the season on NFL Network, as 10.5 million viewers watched Dallas give New Orleans its first loss of the season.
The network continues to have carriage issues with Time Warner Cable, but recently signed deals with small cablers Grande Communications, Knology and Massillon. If a deal with Time Warner can be settled, NFL Network could get upward of 10 million more viewers.
