The Houston Texans held up their end of the bargain when it comes to ratings for the NFL Christmas game on Netflix.

A record-breaking 65 million viewers tuned into Netflix to watch the first NFL double header on the streaming channel.

The Houston Texans have only played one other time on Christmas Day which came in 2017. They played Pittsburgh and lost big, 34-6. Houston played the Steelers at their home NRG Stadium as their Christmas record fell to 0-1. In 2024, the Texans have a chance to get their first ever win on the holiday with another home game.

Netflix’s NFL debut set a new streaming record for the league, with an average audience of more than 24 million people in the U.S. watching each of the two Christmas Day games, according to preliminary Nielsen data.
