I don't think in an NFC Championship game, a lot of teams would have come out and thrown the ball around like they did. Overnight television ratings for the conference championship game dropped from a year ago. The NFC game between the Giants and Vikings, leading off Sunday's doubleheader, drew a 21.6 rating and 44 share on Fox. A year ago, when Fox had the late game between Tampa Bay and St. Louis, the game produced a 27.9 rating and 46 share. Each ratings point represents 1,022,000 households.
Share represents the percentage of television sets in use tuned to the show.
