At least one team executive believes the presidency of Donald Trump will be good for the business of the NFL.

"Under President [Barack] Obama, the country was intellectual and looked at facts," said the executive. "I think that's why our ratings fell. People read a lot about our scandals or CTE and didn't like what they saw. Under Trump, the country will care less about truth or facts. It'll be [more raw] and brutal. Football will be more of an outlet. We'll go back to liking our violent sports."

NFL ratings have only dropped this season with many reasons blamed from the drop in quality of play to the election coverage and the way Roger Goodell has handled disciplinary issues such as Deflategate and domestic violence.
