  "account": "The recent NFL game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams, streamed on Netflix, drew 21.7 million viewers worldwide, according to Eric Fisher of Front Office Sports. This figure comprised 18.5 million domestic viewers and 3.2 million international viewers. The U.S. audience matched the number from last year's Chiefs-Chargers game in Brazil on YouTube. While this is considered good news for Netflix, as the service charges for its streams while YouTube does not, it falls short of the 23.7 million U.S. viewers from two NFL games on Christmas last year. The game itself was not impressive, with the 49ers dominating the Rams 27-7, especially in the second half. Despite this, the numbers indicate a positive reception for NFL content on Netflix, with four more games scheduled for the season, including two on Christmas.",
  "summary": "With the usual Thursday night opener moving to Wednesday night, the recent Friday night international game moved to Thursday.",
