Monday Night Football will take place tonight with the Chicago Bears and the New York Jets set to face off at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Both teams come into the game on 1-1, hoping to claim their second wins of the season so far.
The big Monday Night Football game will start at 8.30 p.m. EST and can be watched on the ESPN network. The game will also be available to watch online through live stream – free for subscribers – via the link provided below.
The Bears will be delighted coming into this game, having fought back to claim an amazing victory against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 2. That unlikeliest of comebacks certainly turned many heads in the NFL, and it will have given Chicago fans renewed hope that they can now push on and achieve something this season.
They now travel to New Jersey to take on the Jets, a team much-improved from last season, but a side still with some clear frailties.
Head to head, the Bears lead the all time series against the Jets with a record of 7-3, and especially in the most recent history between the paid, the Bears have won the last three contests between the two.
However, the Bears have always had a bit of a problem when it comes to Monday Night Football. Their all time record on the big Monday Night Football game is just 27-35, and that's even worse when they travel on the road for the game, where they slip to a record of just 12-24.
The Jets have a tough run defense, but offensive lineman Kyle Long knows that the Bears must run. Long said, "We need to run the ball. I know we got the win on the road, and it was big. I'm sure everybody else in our room will echo that. So will Matt. You need to run the ball in the National Football League, and we'll be better at that."
Tonight's Monday Night Football game between the Chicago Bears and the New York Jets will start at 8.30 p.m. EST and will be broadcast on ESPN. The game can also be watched online through live stream by clicking here.
