Local ratings for Monday night’s Green Bay Packers game against the feisty Atlanta Falcons on WISN-TV (Channel 12) were almost twenty points lower than the Green and Gold’s prime time laugher against the Chicago Bears in November.
Last night’s ratings for the game on WISN were 34.4, compared to 54.2 for last month’s prime time Bears game.
However WISN was carrying ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” telecast, which earned a 16.8 rating for the cable channel.
When the two ratings are combined they are only slightly less than the November Bears game, which was carried exclusively by NBC affiliate WTMJ-TV (Channel 4).
A local rating point represents 8,932 television homes, meaning 307,260 households watched the game on WISN, and another 150,057 watched on ESPN.
The local ratings peaked at 9:45 p.m. with a 36.9.
