MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
September 8, 2014  | By David Bianculli

ESPN, 7:00 p.m. ET

 

This week, more NFL evening games will be played in prime time, I believe, than at any time in TV history. There’s already been one game last night on NBC’s Sunday Night Football. And in three days CBS launches the official start of Thursday Night Football. Meanwhile, tonight, ESPN presents the flagship evening NFL game it inherited long ago from ABC, Monday Night Football, with a rare doubleheader event. At 7 p.m. ET, it’s the New York Giants vs. the Detroit Lions. Then, at 10:15 p.m. ET, it’s the San Diego Chargers vs. the Arizona Cardinals. That’s four night games over a five-night stretch, which I suspect is a record.
