As the 2024–25 NFL season gets underway in September, Monday Night Football (MNF) will once again give football fans an extended weekend to tune in to a game each week. The prime time slot on Mondays will feature yet another season's worth of exciting football matchups available for viewers.

Over the years, MNF Tonight has been a popular search for fans across the United States and other parts of the World. And while the NFL makes the entire regular schedule available for all, ESPN is responsible for putting out the complete list of the MNF Schedule of the 18-week regular season.

No doubt this year will again have several key matchups on MNF, but it all starts with the New York Jets visiting the San Francisco 49ers in week 1. This should be a fun watch as the veteran Aaron Rodgers will go up against the third-year starter Brock Purdy. Week 11 features two Texas-based teams as the Houston Texans make the short trip to AT&T Stadium to take on the Dallas Cowboys. Another interesting match will be the week 17 game as the Detroit Lions go up against the 49ers. And of course, the Harbaugh Bowl will be back for the third time as the John Harbaugh-coached Baltimore Ravens play against the Jim Harbaugh-coached Los Angeles Chargers in a Week 12 game.

Monday Night Football TV Channel

The primary Monday Night Football Schedule Channel rights are with ESPN/ABC, which has been broadcasting these games since 2006. Some MNF games are simulcast on ABC even though most of the games remain solely with ESPN.

The MNF commentator team for the 2024 NFL season is once again the former Cowboys legend Troy Aikman, accompanied by Joe Buck. This will be their second season together after being paired for the first time for the 2023 NFL season. Reporting duty on the sidelines will be handled by Lisa Salters.

Monday Night Football Kickoff Time

Typically, the Monday Night Football Kickoff time for most of the games is 8:15 p.m. ET (Eastern Time). There are a few games here and there whose time will be different, but for the most part, 8:15 p.m. ET will be the time to follow.

Fans who want to get even more action can tune in to the pregame show called Monday Night Countdown which begins at 6:00 p.m. ET (Eastern Time)

The MNF pregame crew consists of Adam Schefter, Marcus Spears, Ryan Clark, and Michelle Beisner-Buck. Hosting duties are given to Scott Van Pelt. This year, recently retired former Philadelphia Eagles center, Jason Kelce will be adding to the fun and banter as he is set to join the MNF team for the 2024 season.

Monday Night Football Key Matchup ( Week 3 - Washington Commanders vs Cincinnati Bengals )

We will see the first of two doubleheaders on the Monday Night Football schedule this week when the Jaguars take on the Bills followed by a Commanders-Bengals showdown. Through two weeks of football, the Jaguars have failed to convince anyone of their credentials to contend for a division title. Two losses in two games to the Dolphins and Browns means they find themselves in a shallow hole of their own making. The Bills, meanwhile, have surprised more than most, picking up two wins against the Cardinals and the Dolphins. Buffalo was tagged as a regression candidate owing to their slow offseason but James Cook and Khalil Shakir have stepped up this year. Kickoff for the Jags-Bills game is scheduled for 7:30 pm Eastern from Highmark Stadium. The game will be broadcast live on ESPN.

The Commanders-Bengals showdown gives Washington its first primetime game of the season. It’s been a slow start for the Commanders under Dan Quinn but we’re starting to see what Jayden Daniels is made of. On the Bengals’ side of things, two losses to start the season probably weren’t on their bingo card. The loss to the Chiefs was a close one but it still counts in the L column. The Bengals will hope to have Tee Higgins back sometime soon but even if they don’t, their schedule isn’t the toughest after Week 3. Expect the Bengals to come out fighting after the loss to the Chiefs.
