If you believe in omens, Netflix appeared to be in for a very long day on Wednesday. As the streaming giant began its NFL pregame show prior to airing the Kansas City Chiefs’ 29-10 blowout over the Pittsburgh Steelers, viewers were welcomed to the broadcast … with immediate audio issues.

The streaming giant is moving deeper into live programming but faces questions about its ability to host real-time events without a hitch.

NFL action continues on Netflix on Christmas Day with the second game featuring the Ravens and Texans and a Beyoncé halftime show.

Netflix was on most sports fans' minds when their glitchy, buffering mess of a stream marred the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson boxing match. It was a bad showing, but making it more ominous was that the streamer was set to air a pair of NFL games 40 days later.

Netflix's rookie start as an NFL media partner didn't draw any flags, with no major reported technical issues for the Christmas Day games.

Netflix will have one of its biggest days since the site launched in 1998 when it carries two NFL games for the first time on Christmas.

Performing cuts from her smash “Cowboy Carter” album, Beyoncé doubled down on her country aesthetic, joined by Post Malone, daughter Blue Ivy and others.

Mariah Carey is practically synonymous with Christmas at this point. So it should be no surprise she'd be a part of the NFL Christmas Gameday special.

Beyoncé provided more excitement than either game during Netflix’s NFL debut on Christmas Day. Riding into her halftime appearance on a white horse, the 32-time Grammy winner rocked her hometown Houston crowd with a nearly 13-minute performance on Wednesday.

After the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Golden State Warriors in a Christmas Day thriller, LeBron James had a message for the NFL.
