This Christmas Day, NFL fans can look forward to two exciting matchups, bringing holiday cheer and football action right to their screens. The Kansas City Chiefs will capitalise on their impressive season as they take on the Pittsburgh Steelers, followed by the Baltimore Ravens facing the Houston Texans. Both of these games are set to significantly impact playoff positions and showcase some of the league's best talents.
The first clash of the day will feature the Pittsburgh Steelers, boasting a 10-5 record, hosting the 14-1 Kansas City Chiefs at Acrisure Stadium. Kickoff is slated for 1:00 p.m. ET, and for those looking to watch without cable or Netflix, fuboTV offers options for streaming, which includes their free seven-day trial. The Steelers will need to turn things around following their recent 34-17 loss to the Ravens. Head Coach Mike Tomlin’s squad aims to secure their place in the playoffs against one of the top teams, the Chiefs.
Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson has shown promise, completing 217 yards and throwing two touchdowns last week. The imminent return of wide receiver George Pickens, absent for three games due to injury, could provide the necessary spark for the Steelers. With the home crowd expected to amplify their efforts, all eyes will be on this rematch as the Steelers look to rebound.
Later on Christmas Day, the Baltimore Ravens will square off against the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium at 4:30 p.m. ET. This matchup holds considerable significance for the Ravens (10-5) as they strive to secure their place at the top of the AFC North. The Ravens are coming off a dominating 34-17 victory over the Steelers, showcasing their impressive ground game, led by running back Derrick Henry, who racked up 162 rushing yards.
Quarterback Lamar Jackson has also been on fire, throwing three touchdown passes last week. With the Ravens’ momentum building and their playoff chances thickening, they could pose major threats to the Texans. The Texans (9-6), on the other hand, are seeking to make their own playoff push but face the challenge of outmatching the formidable Ravens.
Streaming options for the Ravens-Texans game will also be available on Netflix and fuboTV, making it accessible to fans eager to witness the holiday action. FuboTV’s promotional trial period is ideally timed for viewers wanting to enjoy both Christmas Day games without prior subscriptions, ensuring no football fan misses out.
