NFL Games
The National Football League (NFL) regular season begins on Thursday, September 10, 2020 and ends on Sunday, January 3, 2021. So, what games are on next week?
NFC Games
The NFC (National Football Conference) is one of the two conferences of the National Football League (NFL), the highest professional level of American football in the world. The conference is made up of 16 teams, spread across four divisions:
-NFC East: Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, Philadelphia Eagles, Washington Redskins
-NFC North: Chicago Bears, Detroit Lions, Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings
-NFC South: Atlanta Falcons, Carolina Panthers, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
-NFC West: Arizona Cardinals, Los Angeles Rams, San Francisco 49ers, Seattle Seahawks
Each team plays 16 regular season games over 17 weeks. At the end of the regular season, the top team from each division will automatically qualify for the playoffs. The next best six teams regardless of division will also qualify for the playoffs. These teams will be seeded based on their record, with the best team being seeded first and so on. The playoffs are a single elimination tournament that culminates with the NFC Championship game. The winner of that game will advance to the Super Bowl to take on the AFC Champion.

Monday Night Football
Monday Night Football is a live television broadcast of a weekly National Football League game. The game is televised on ESPN in the United States and is simulcast on TSN in Canada. Monday Night Football is also broadcast live on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
The broadcast airs at 8:15 PM Eastern Time (ET) on Monday nights during the NFL’s regular season from September to December. The show is also occasionally aired on other nights, such as during NFL playoff games or when there are doubleheader games scheduled for Mondays.
The Monday Night Football broadcast booth consists of three commentators: a play-by-play announcer and two color commentators. The position of play-by-play announcer has been held by a number of different people throughout the years, including Keith Jackson, Al Michaels, Frank Gifford, and Joe Theismann. The current play-by-play announcer is Steve Levy.
The current color commentators are former NFL players Louis Riddick and Brian Griese. Riddick replaced Jon Gruden as a color commentator in 2021, while Griese was hired to replace Booger McFarland, who was reassigned within ESPN.
