Good evening, Chicago.

The Bears' come-from-behind victory over the Packers in Saturday’s wild-card round became the first NFL game to have over 30 million viewers on a streaming service.

The Bears’ 31-27 victory averaged 31.61 million on Amazon’s Prime Video, according to Nielsen, and broke the previous standard by 4 million. That mark was set on Christmas Day, when Minnesota’s win over Detroit averaged 27.52 million on Netflix.

It was the third season the NFL has streamed the Saturday night wild-card game. The AFC wild-card game between the Dolphins and Chiefs during the 2023 season averaged 23 million on Peacock.
