Whether or not they are in a spiral or not will depend on their new TV deal. An increase and they will be ok but a reduction and they are fudgeed.

Really can't see the TV money going up with the way things are going. Aren't TV viewing numbers tracking downwards? And the rise of streaming services and just the general sharktiness of bundled pay TV packages are killing off revenue for pay TV providers. In this environment I just can't see the deal getting increased. Not to mention the negative publicity the FFA seems intent on generating around the comp - that's unlikely to be encouraging casual viewers to tune in.
