NFL drew massive audiences on Netflix Christmas Day

We had that Kansas City Game on where I was Christmas. Apparently it was viewed by massive audience on Netflix. I'm sure this means Here comes Netflix in the sports streaming space. It will be interesting to see if they migrate to college sports. They'll start with Professional ones for sure.

If this might mean that streaming services (Netflix etc) could bury ESPN
13HOKIE • 12/29/24 09:39 AM ET
I thought there was a pro game on. That's why I couldn't find it.

What would Netflix pay for a weekly Saturday NFL game?

Massive audiences.......

I suspect every network loses money on NFL contracts
Vippie1 • 12/28/24 04:10 PM ET
I doubt anybody........

Well, CBS parent Paramount’s revenues are nearly 100 billion

Here is one older article, I’m sure there are more detailed analyses posted

And here is a much better analysis**

What "benefits" do you believe.....
2hhoop3 • 12/28/24 06:03 PM ET
Look I'm done
Vippie1 • 12/28/24 06:44 PM ET
I wholly agree that networks would readily take losses on an NFL deal
lawhokie • 01/01/25 09:54 AM ET
I’m enjoying this discussion, you both could be right. Two ways to make 💵.

In other words, will Amazon buy a major broadcaster?
lawhokie • 01/01/25 10:09 AM ET

I read where they paid $150M to the NFL, but I think
Big12 guy • 12/28/24 02:11 PM ET
Wait a minute; Netflix has the NFL Thursday games now?**
mancunian • 12/28/24 03:02 PM ET
My bad. The $150M for 2 years is correct, but it
Big12 guy • 12/28/24 03:23 PM ET
it's a 3 year deal - $150 million per game - based on ratings
AnotherTechW • 01/02/25 08:20 AM ET
Thanks for the clarification. **
Big12 guy • 01/02/25 09:14 AM ET
The average broadcast NFL game is between 15 to 17 million
HOO86 • 12/28/24 11:59 AM ET
For perspective, they said each game averaged about 24M streamers. Last...
TVLander • 12/28/24 11:56 AM ET
Probably got new subscribers and Ad money for it too. I didn’t watch it,
Stech • 12/28/24 01:58 PM ET
Has the potential for a huge paradigm shift, it’ll be interesting to watch.**
Stech • 12/28/24 11:35 AM ET
They also released the Beyonce half time show as a stand alone special
