Week 15 of the NFL season features a Monday Night Football doubleheader for the first time since Week 7.
First, the Vikings host the Bears in an NFC North showdown. Minnesota (11-2) can punch its ticket to the playoffs with a win.
Sam Darnold and company enter the game riding a six-game winning streak. Last week, Darnold threw for 347 yards and five touchdowns — three to Jordan Addison and two to Justin Jefferson.
Chicago (4-9) has lost seven consecutive games after a 4-2 start. Rookie quarterback Caleb Williams did toss a pair of touchdowns in last week’s 25-point loss to the 49ers.
In the second game, the Falcons hope to pick up ground in the NFC South race when they battle the Raiders. Atlanta (6-7) has lost four in a row to fall a game behind the first-place Buccaneers.
Veteran quarterback Kirk Cousins has thrown eight interceptions during the losing skid. Perhaps better days loom against the last-place Raiders (2-11), who have dropped nine straight games.
The Sporting News has everything you need to know to watch this week’s Monday Night Football doubleheader.
