Philip Rivers sells.<\/p>\n
The return of the 44-year-old grandpa to the Colts, nearly five years after he last played for the team, moved the needle in Indianapolis.<\/p>\n
Via Zack Keefer of TheAthletic.com, the Week 15 game between the Colts and the Seahawks was the most-watched Colts game<\/a> on CBS in Indianapolis in five years.<\/p>\n And, of course, five years ago, Rivers was the team\u2019s starting quarterback.<\/p>\n It\u2019s no surprise. Rivers\u2019s return sparked fascination for all NFL fans. For Colts fans, who were able to enjoy a near upset of one of the best teams in the league, there was no reason to stop watching the game until the very end.<\/p>\n This week, the Colts host the 49ers on Monday Night Football. The national broadcast gives all football fans a chance, two nights before an old man in red makes his worldwide rounds, to see if an old man in blue can make a Christmas wish<\/a> come true.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Philip Rivers sells.
