In a podcast interview Bela Bajara, the chief content officer at Netflix mentioend the company may be interested in streaming NFL games on Sunday afternoon.

Word is Netflix plans to negotiate with The League to take over the Sunday afternoon game schedule from either CBS or Fox. It’s already paid the NFL $150 million to stream the only two Christmas games. Two measly games. Just think, Fredo Spanos, doing nothing, picked up $4.7 million after opening the ties his sons put under the tree.

Netflix has called an audible and now plans to pursue a Sunday NFL package following its successful Christmas Day debut last season. Bela Bajaria, the chief content officer for the streaming giant, confirmed the strategy shift on a recent episode of "The Town" podcast.

Netflix’s chief content officer Bela Bejaria told Puck News the company hopes to build its NFL game schedule by vying for the Sunday afternoon games: “I definitely want the Sunday [afternoon] games,” she said.

Eyebrows were raised throughout the sports world when Netflix chief content officer Bela Bajaria recently acknowledged that the outlet could look to land one of the Sunday afternoon NFL broadcast packages once the league can opt out of existing deals after the 2029 season.

Netflix gave an otherwise slow week of NFL news a kick in the tuchus, thanks to podcast-interview comments from its chief content office Bela Bajaria.
