Talent for the NFL game presentation will be revealed at a later date, and there is no news on a potential halftime performer at the moment.

"NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell recently announced plans for a tripleheader of NFL games this coming Christmas, featuring two games on Netflix and one on Amazon Prime"

"I don’t know that the NFL wants to go down that road of taking the most popular sport in America right now, the one that gets the most eyeballs, and taking it off of over-the-air broadcast"

"We understand people love sports. I love sports too – people love them – we know our audiences love them"

"Our aim is to deliver big, memorable moments to our members."

Outside of Netflix, overall streaming viewership climbed 9 percent in December over November, with streaming securing a record 43.4 percent of total TV watch time.

"...I think they’ll come a time where we’ll do more and more of this, but right now, I think what we’re trying to do is all live events."

The second matchup of the day, featuring the Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans, amassed a global average minute audience of 31.3 million viewers.

"Bringing our members this record-breaking day of two NFL games was the best Christmas gift we could have delivered."

"People are going to do whatever it takes, as we have seen with Amazon and now Netflix, do whatever it takes to find the games."
