Finally, the NFL season will get underway as preseason begins to open around the league. With the draft and free agency behind us, analysts and prognosticators will get to see what they got right and what they got wrong.
At the end of the day, it’s what ultimately transpires on the field. Inevitably, the NFL schedule produces a few surprises. It can also have some real duds pop up, even in their primetime window on ESPN.
Still, the league has a pretty incredible package on deck at the World Wide Leader. Contenders and would-be contenders, as well as a few rematches from the hotly contested 2021 season, will get their shot under the white-hot lights of Monday Night Football.
It’s a new era for ESPN and the NFL with Troy Aikman and Joe Buck
ESPN will also introduce a new broadcast team featuring Troy Aikman and Joe Buck. Aikman spent the last 22 years with FOX as an analyst, while Buck has called NFL games for the last 28 seasons. The 2022 NFL season will be Buck and Aikman’s 21st together.
Aikman and Tony Romo, both former Cowboys quarterbacks, are arguably the most high-profile NFL analysts on the airwaves.
Aikman will also be the first Hall of Fame player to become a member of the Monday Night broadcast team since MNF moved from ABC to ESPN in 2006.
Of note, he will be the first former Cowboys QB in the Monday booth since Don Meredith, who was part of the first-ever MNF team with two stints beginning in to 1970-1973 and 1977-1984.
NFL Spin Zone has selected four prime-time games that will draw a lot of eyes to the 2022 Monday Night Football schedule. Those are absolutely must-see-tv, sure to draw huge viewership numbers and a ton of debate.
