Netflix was on most sports fans' minds when its glitchy, buffering mess of a stream marred the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson boxing match. It was a bad showing. Making it more ominous was that the streamer was set to air a pair of NFL games 40 days later.

One Netflix executive says the live stream issues during the Jake Paul vs. Mike Tyson event served as a learning experience.

After streaming issues during the Jake Paul-Mike Tyson fight last month on Netflix prompted concerns about the company’s ability to handle large events, it has largely avoided problems during the first game of the day between Kansas City and Pittsburgh. The stream did not lag and came through sharp and in high quality.
