The Denver Broncos broke the Kansas City Chiefs’ nine‑year hold on the AFC West last season, claiming the division title for the first time in a decade. The two rivals meet in the season‑opening Monday Night Football game, kicking off tonight at 8:15 p.m. ET (5:15 p.m. PT) on ABC and ESPN.
During the broadcast, viewers can switch to ESPN2 for the ManningCast, featuring former NFL quarterbacks Peyton and Eli Manning as they analyze the action and interview guests.
For those looking to stream the game, several live‑TV services carry ESPN and ESPN2, while an over‑the‑air antenna can pick up the ABC feed in areas with good reception.
