To make the process a little easier, we put together some of the better options for Monday Night Football and other NFL games. Read on for a schedule of upcoming MNF games, plus ways to watch and stream live and on-demand (with and without cable).
Monday Night Football: Games, Dates & Time
Monday Night Football began on Sept. 9 and will continue into January 2023. ESPN enlisted the help of DJ Marshmello to remix the MNF theme song.
So far, this year’s MNF matchups have featured the Denver Broncos vs. Seattle Seahawks, Tennessee Titans vs. Buffalo Bills, Minnesota Vikings vs. Eagles, Dallas Cowboys vs. NY Giants, Los Angeles Rams vs. San Francisco 49ers, Cincinnati Bengals vs. Cleveland Browns, Baltimore Ravens vs. Saints, Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Indianapolis Colts and more.
The Packers and Rams will play Monday, followed by the Los Angeles Chargers and Indianapolis Colts on Dec. 26. Most of the aforementioned games will broadcast on ESPN, EPSN2 and ESPN Deportes, but a couple of the scheduled games will air on ABC as well. See the full 2022 MNF schedule here.
How to Watch Monday Night Football Without Cable
Gone are the days of simply switching channels to catch all of your favorite NFL games, and it can be hard to keep track of which games are streaming on which platforms. For example, Prime Video is the streaming home for Thursday Night Football, while Sunday Night Football games are available on NBC and Peacock, and some Monday Night Football games will simulcast on ESPN+.
That said, while there are different ways to watch football games from your TV, phone, laptop or computer, the price will vary depending on which platform that you choose.
With ESPN+, you’ll get access to football and more for $9.99 a month (or bundle with Disney+ and Hulu). Watch the NFL, college football, soccer, MLB, NBA, NHL, UFC 279, PGA Tour, Top Rank, PLL Playoffs, Premiere League, La Liga, cricket and other sporting events on ESPN+. You can also binge dozens of sports series and TV shows, and original content such as PPV fights, and the entire 30 for 30 series, which includes The Captain, Tom Brady: Man in the Arena, Al Davis vs. The NFL, Vick, Be Like Water, Breakaway, More Than An Athlete with Michael Strahan, and Our Time Baylor Basketball.
The Rams and 49ers game earlier this year streamed live on ESPN+, but Monday’s game will broadcast on ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes. The game will begin at 8:15 p.m. ET/5:15 p.m. PT. Monday Night Countdown pre-game coverage will begin at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT.
