2 MNF games Week 1. 6pm and 9pm possibly

[MikeO]

An NFL source said the league and ESPN are giving "serious consideration" to opening the 2006 Monday schedule with two games, one beginning at 3 p.m. and the second at 6 p.m. Pacific time. The league staged a similar doubleheader in Week 2 last fall so the New Orleans Saints, displaced in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, could play their "home" opener at Giants Stadium.

I say the NFl should keeporiginal and have it the usual time

Well the second game would still be at the original time, they just want to add one earlier in the day. It might be a fun idea just to do for one Monday.

I doubt it would go over very well

It could help the ratings alot. Do you all remember the Pats and Jets final MNF game? That is one of the many examples why this will be a good idea.

ESPN might get the second opening night Thursday game instead of 2 on Monday night.

i would not mind two games the first week. As long as they just have the one monday night game the rest of the season.
