Rams' TV rating poor in LA, St. Louis

Double downer.

The Rams were a ratings dud Sunday in their new city as well as their former one.

The team’s first regular-season game in the Los Angeles area since returning after a 21-year stint in St. Louis was much-ballyhooed there, and drew a sellout crowd (announced at 91,046) to the Los Angeles Coliseum.

But the television ratings performance was as lackluster as the game, a field-goal snoozfest won by the Rams 9-3.

The telecast, on the Fox network outlet, was seen in just 12 percent of homes in that market with a TV. That’s according to Nielsen, which measures viewership.
