During Week 6 of the NFL season, we’ve got two Monday Night Football games to choose from; an early game between the inter-conference rivals the Buffalo Bills and the Atlanta Falcons airing on ESPN at 7:15 p.m. ET, or a nationally televised game on ABC featuring the Chicago Bears vs. Washington Commanders. Last season’s game between the Bears and Commanders was seen as the beginning of the end for the Bears, a crash-out that turned into a 10-game losing streak. Now under Ben Johnson’s leadership, the Bears have recalibrated, but will that lead to different results this season? We’ll find out on Monday.
Monday’s Bears vs. Commanders game on ABC will be available on platforms like DirecTV aDirecTV, strFubothe game through NFL+, or you can check it out on the new ESPN unlimited app, which combines all of ESPN’s networks, including ESPN on ABC games in one place. Here’s what you need to know to tune into Monday Night Football during Week 6 of the NFL season.
