For the first time, Netflix will broadcast NFL games on Christmas day, and this year’s inaugural slate features a potentially bitter rivalry and marquee quarterback matchup.

For the second consecutive season, Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs will take the field hours after Santa Claus and his reindeer take flight and will be facing a familiar foe.
