The two fixtures - Kansas City Chiefs v Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens v Houston Texans - will be available to almost all Netflix's more than 280 million international subscribers.

Charlotte Offord, general manager for NFL Australia, expects fans in the growing Down Under market to tune in even though the games start in the early morning on the day after Christmas.
"The Netflix initiative is so great for us," she said.
