Why don’t they make the entire schedule out of Monday night doubleheaders?
It usually happens in Week 1, but this year the NFL will feature two Monday Night Football games in Week 2—September 19—as the Tennessee Titans will travel to Buffalo at 7:15 p.m. ET and the Eagles will host to the Vikings at 8:30 p.m. ET.
The MNF doubleheader was a Week 1 fixture since its inception in 2006, but usually it’s one game at 7:15 and the next at 10:15. The MNF doubleheader was eliminated last year in lieu of a doubleheader on the final Saturday of the regular season.
That doubleheader will still be played, and in addition there will be three total MNF doubleheaders each season.
