With Thanksgiving in the rear view mirror, NBC Sports Network easily beat the Golf Channel in primetime this week, and while it trailed Fox Sports 1 in primetime, on a total day basis, NBC Sports Network fared better for the week.
If it seems like these rankers never change from a relative ranking perspective that’s because they usually don’t. NFL Network will fade once it has no more games to air, but that’s still a few weeks into the future.
