When the Falcons played the Chicago Bears on "Sunday Night Football" on Oct. 18, their first regular-season appearance on national television since 2007, they drew big ratings.
The game against the Bears, televised by NBC, earned a 10.9 final Nielsen rating and was watched by 18.2 million viewers.
The Falcons' next game is Nov. 2 against the Saints on ESPN's "Monday Night Football."
