Citing Neilsen, Netflix reports that Christmas was a record-breaking day for Netflix and the NFL, with an unduplicated audience of nearly 65M US viewers.
The Ravens-Texans game averaged 24.3 million viewers, and the early Chiefs-Steelers game averaged 24.1 million. Nielsen reported that the games were the most-streamed games in NFL history.
Not only that, but viewership for the Ravens-Texans peaked at the halftime show, a.k.a. the Beyoncé Bowl.
