There's no real choice there, but MNF has traditionally been a national game. Monday hasn't been a "regular" night of football, other than the silly opening-Monday things they've done the past few years, which I also think are dumb. Plus on Sunday, you don't have a network family competing against itself like now with ABC and ESPN broadcasting the games. I personally hate when my team is on MNF (like they will be next week... right after being on TNF) and now there's 2x the chances of that happening. I imagine most people on the east time zone who work a "9-5" hate their team on MNF.

infrared41 Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Deshaun Watson sucks. I'd never wish an injury on anyone, but I will say that the wrong Brown blew out his knee tonight. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure running games on ABC and ESPN at the same time is just a continuation of the NFL's tendency toward too much of everything, like Sunday quadrupleheaders, 17th games, and Thursday games all year. I don't like it because yeah, I don't need two games to flip between on Monday night. It devalues something the NFL has gotten right, which is Monday Night Football creeping its way back to ABC. That should be a really big deal. Why compete against yourself? 3 1 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A missing digit might remind him next time he tries to touch a massage therapist against their will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only an idiot would think this guy is a major upgrade from Baker Mayfield. Baker is every bit as capable of screwing up a game as Watson is. An added bonus is I wouldn't feel like I need a shower after watching Baker snap defeat from the jaws of victory. $280 million for this guy. off. 2 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cujo Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 I've enjoyed having two MNF games and wouldn't mind seeing become a permanent thing on the NFL schedule. Perhaps a later start time for the second game. But to have two options and 4+ hours of football on Monday evenings is a win for us fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an easy fix - one east coast game and one west coast game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 The week 1 Monday doubleheader was fun because you'd get an obligatory Raiders game and some weird cobbled-together broadcast team for some novel background noise, but those weren't concurrent games. Why not give people an alternative to Sunday nights, too? Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
