Beyoncé’s Half-Time Show: NFL Fans Revisit Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson Fight to Warn Netflix About Glitches
The NFL, in search of new revenue streams, added Netflix to a long list of streaming platforms set to broadcast the games. The streaming giants will cover two Christmas Day games this season- Kansas City at Pittsburgh at 1 p.m. (ET) followed by Baltimore at Houston at 4:30 p.m. (ET).
To make it a special day, 32-time Grammy winner Beyoncé will perform at halftime of the Ravens vs Texans game.
However, this has worried the fans, who are expecting nothing but disappointment again from Netflix. The streaming giants botched the streaming of the much-anticipated fight between Jake Paul and Mike Tyson. The viewers complained that their screens froze as Netflix faced technical difficulties, unable to handle the traffic on its site.
Fans trolled Netflix, pointing out their previous blunder. Many don’t believe that streaming giants will be able to handle the load and their servers will probably crash. Others urged Netflix to fix their servers before then:

The singer will perform in her hometown of Houston and the performance will take place at NRG Stadium at 4:30 PM ET, on Dec. 25.
She will be singing the songs from her recently released country- album, Cowboy Carter. The NFL is getting $75 million per game from Netflix to allow the streaming giant to livestream the two Christmas Day games.
