Get ready for another doubleheader on Monday night. For the second week in a row, football fans are being treated to a pair of Monday Night Football games.

The 0-3 Titans and 1-2 Dolphins kick off first in Miami, and 45 minutes later the 3-0 Seahawks and 2-1 Lions kick off in Detroit. Unless you like erratic quarterback play, the second game tonight is probably your best bet. Plus, the staggered start times mean you can switch back and forth between the games and watch both finishes. You can also switch to the Seahawks-Lions game during halftime of the Titans-Dolphins game to avoid the long commercial breaks.

The Titans and Dolphins kick off 7:30 PM ET (4:30 PM PT). ESPN, and the Seahawks and Lions start at 8:15 PM ET (5:15 PM PT) on ABC and ESPN Plus.

If you don’t have a cable or satellite TV subscription, you can watch Monday Night Football via a live TV streaming service. The good news for football fans is that ABC and ESPN are available on all five major streaming services, including DirecTV Stream, with DirecTV and Disney reaching a deal that ends the blackout of ESPN and ABC.
