of other factors like teams involved, time slot, location, time of year, etc... Obviously they don't have that with Brady but are betting on him. But I agree it's about much more than in game ratings.  Previous Message I am pretty certain that there’s no data out there which would suggest that this kind of investment is actually worth it from a game ratings standpoint.  Previous Message I don't get it either but they must have the data, right?  Previous Message Maybe there’s a bump in year 1 when people want to hear if he’s any good, but after that, the color commentator is not going to drive ratings at all.
