Is MNF game between the Giants(1-7) and 49ers(2-7) the worst ever?

It's a total joke that the "marquee" matchup each week is set in stone before the season starts. Throw in the shitty production value and booger riding a crane the whole night, you've got the worst NFL broadcast in football.

No there was a Cowboys Redskins MNF game in 2001?

They were both 0-6 or something

Yeah. I’m not sure why they picked two non playoff teams for MNF.

A lot of people thought the Giants would be better this season and the 49ers with Garoppolo would be much different.

Are they even broadcasting it? May watch to see Odell's weekly drama queen episode on the sideline.

MNF hasn’t been the marquee matchup in 13 years. How do people still not know this?

Yeah, we know this.

But ESPN still gets the third pick each week, after NBC and the national 3.30p CT game on either CBS or FOX.

And they sure as hell don't pick the third-best (or better) game often.

No they don’t get 3rd pick

MNF games are predetermined due to it being a Monday game. The league sets them

Yeah. They have to pick them far in advance, just as NBC does for its SNF games before the flex weeks.

The league doesn't just tell ESPN who will play each MNF.

Yes they do. The conspiracy theory behind all the shitty MNF matchups was the league punishing ESPN for being too critical.

Meanwhile the following week’s MNF could be the best of the year.

Games between bad teams can be entertaining. Lots of blunders and pratfalls.

The best way to commentate on this game might just be in the style of Mystery Science Theater 3000
