It looks like Patriots fans were fully invested in Tom Brady's 10th Super Bowl appearance.
According to Sports Business Journal's John Ourand, the Buccaneers' 31-9 win over the Chiefs in Super Bowl LV Sunday night drew a massive 57.6 rating in the Boston market, which actually beat the Tampa market.
That 57.6 rating also beats the Boston rating for all but one of the nine Super Bowls the Patriots went to with Brady. The only one with a higher rating was the Patriots' Super Bowl XLIX win over the Seahawks.
It is worth noting that the numbers this year come with a little bit of a caveat, which is that because of COVID-19, a lot more people watched the Super Bowl by themselves or with a small group at home than at a big Super Bowl party or out at a bar. That could mean multiple TVs tuned into the game where they may have just been one in a normal year.
Brady completed 21 of 29 passes for 201 yards and three touchdowns in the Tampa Bay victory, earning his fifth Super Bowl MVP award in the process.
