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.

It has finally happened: Netflix now has live football. Announced earlier this year, Christmas Day marks the beginning of the NFL's expansion onto the popular streaming service, with two games on tap for this year: the Chiefs and Steelers in the opener at 1 p.m. ET, followed by the Ravens and Texans in the day's second game at 4:30 p.m. ET.

The Steelers host the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas Day at Acrisure Stadium in a game that will help determine the AFC playoff picture. Wednesday's game between the two teams kicks off an early start to the NFL's Week 17 slate and launches Netflix into the national spotlight.
