Per NBC, the streaming numbers were particularly big at 2.8 million viewers across Peacock, NBC Sports Digital and NFL Digital platforms, beating three different Super Bowls to become NBC's second-most streamed game ever .
The game itself was likely a boon for the ratings when compared to last year's opener, in which the Bills steamrolled the Rams 31-10.
