Taylor Swift, Jerrod Carmichael, Cara Delevingne and a shirtless Jason Kelce were in good company on Sunday.
CBS’ broadcast of the NFL Divisional Playoff game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills averaged 39.3 million total viewers from 7 to 10 pm ET on Sunday evening.
The very close contest, which the Chiefs wound up winning by a score of 27-24, also averaged a 9.9 rating in the coveted 18-49 demographic.
The total Chiefs/Bills audience cited above marks a 14% gain in viewership versus the comparable year-ago match-up between the Cowboys and 49ers (San Francisco bested Dallas 19-12), and a 9% increase in the demo. [Reply]

He probably met Taylor and Jason at one of his Chiefs Kingdom invades a city near you parties. He drank champagne out of Taylor's ass crack and beat Jason in a shirtless dance contest. [Reply]

You could leave out Jason but Taylor is definitely drawing eyes to our team.
Then again...

Per multiple reports, 39 million viewers (on average) watched Kansas City beat Buffalo, 27-24, to advance to the AFC Championship. The last time the same two teams met in the divisional round, in the same time frame and on the same network, the audience averaged 42.7 million. That’s an 8.6-percent drop over the January 2022 game.
It gets a little worse. Last year, the Sunday night Cowboys-49ers game on Fox attracted 45.65 million viewers. Although the Cowboys always do well, the drop from Dallas-San Francisco to Kansas City-Buffalo was 6.65 million. That’s a 14.5-percent drop.
So far this year, the trend had been the NFL’s friend. And while it’s no surprise that the Cowboys pushed the bar higher, it’s a little concerning that Chiefs-Bills ’24 did 3.7 million less than Bills-Chiefs ’22.
The Buccaneers-Lions game earlier on Sunday averaged 40.4 million viewers on NBC and Peacock.

Saw a piece where they said the video of Jason leaping out of the suite was posted on Tic-Toc. Went viral nd within an hour anther 2 million viewers checked the game out. [Reply]
Not sure how exactly this is different than the OP, but...
CBS says that with more than 50 million viewers, the Chiefs-Bills game is the most watched NFL Divisional Round game ever and the most-watched program of any kind since last year's Super Bowl.
