Huskyfan82 Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I would say the Raiders. They seem to always be talked about when it comes to the "Monday Night" teams.David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korkie Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 '80s Niners. Jerry Rice holds all kind of MNF recieving records to boot. "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."Dr. Kelso: My son is a big baseball fan. Not so much playing it, but more the designing and sewing of uniforms.Tyler: That's neat.Dr. Kelso: No, it's not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrdevil Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 I'm going to go with the Cleveland Browns. They volunteered to host the first Monday Night Game when no other team wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeytonManningRocks Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I'd say the Jets, they provided us with one of the best comebacks ever in 2000 against the Dolphins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I'm going to go with the Cleveland Browns. They volunteered to host the first Monday Night Game when no other team wanted to. Yeah, it pains me to say it but Art Modell played a BIG role in getting MNF off the ground.Another "team" that was very significant would be this one...Cosell, Meredith, Gifford, Arledge, Forte.

Cujo Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I'd say the Jets, they provided us with one of the best comebacks ever in 2000 against the Dolphins. Without a doubt, that would also have to be my favorite Monday Night moment ... and unlike most Jets fans, I stayed in my seat throughout the entire game.

Braden Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 I would say the Dolphins... and here's why.They were one of the teams playing the night Cosell announced John Lennon's deathThey beat the then-undefeated Chicago Bears in 1985 keeping the legacy of the 1972 Dolphins, in the highest rated MNF game ever.They were victims to the Jets Monday Night MiracleDan Marino has the most passing yards and touchdowns of any QB on Monday NightThey were victims to Earl Campbell's 199 yard, 4 TD gameIt's a shame that a team involved with so many great MNF moments didn't even get to play a night game at all this year.

NoHoJoe Posted December 24, 2005 Author Share Posted December 24, 2005 I'd say the Jets, they provided us with one of the best comebacks ever in 2000 against the Dolphins. Peyton Got it right.
