How about another Monday doubleheader?
Due to rescheduling efforts forced by COVID-19, Week 6 will see two games played on Monday. The Chiefs and Bills, originally scheduled for this past Thursday, will take the opening slot. The Cowboys and Cardinals will then play in the traditional 8:15 p.m. ET Monday Night Football slot, giving football fans an unexpected double dose of NFL action.
First up is a mouthwatering matchup between the Chiefs (4-1) and Bills (4-1). Both teams suffered their first losses of the season in Week 5, which should provide even more motivation for each side in this dinnertime matchup (kickoff is scheduled for 5 p.m. ET, stretching the definition of a Monday "night" game a bit).
How will each team react to last week's respective defeats, especially when faced with an opponent in the same situation?
Cowboys host Cardinals in first game since Prescott injury
The Cowboys (2-3) face the visiting Cardinals (3-2) in their first contest since announcing that quarterback Dak Prescott will miss the remainder of the season with an ankle injury, and all eyes will be on backup Andy Dalton.
Dallas has specialized in close games so far this season, with every contest except one decided by seven points or less. With Dalton taking over as the Cowboys starter, the question becomes whether they can continue to remain competitive with a different man at the helm.
Meanwhile, the Cardinals are back in the win column after two straight losses, although their most recent victory came over the beleaguered Jets. While not the most exhilarating of wins considering the opposition, Arizona should still benefit from a confidence boost heading into its trip to AT&T Stadium.
Here's more info about the matchups, plus everything to know about how to watch Monday night's games.
