Monday Night Football returns with a huge Week 14 matchup, but this one has a fun twist. Tonight’s game heads to Monstropolis for a special Monsters, Inc. edition of Funday Football featuring Sully, Mike, and family-friendly fun, streaming on Disney+ and ESPN.
Live from SoFi Stadium, Jalen Hurts and the defending-champion Philadelphia Eagles visit Justin Herbert and the Los Angeles Chargers in a showdown between two playoff contenders. Both teams sit at 8-4, and look to stay in contention for the No. 1 seeds as the season winds down.
Tonight’s fully animated alternate version of Monday Night Football is built inside the world of Monsters, Inc. By blending live football with Pixar-style storytelling and humor, fans will enter a new world compared to the traditional telecast. Disney’s unique presentation combines real-time animation technology and player movements into a playful, monster-filled version of the game. Plus, the Week 14 showdown will have custom characters, themed overlays, kid-friendly commentary, and appearances from Mike, Sulley, and other fan favorites.
When the hard-hitting action plays out on the field, cord cutters will have a tough choice between the Monsters, Inc.-themed presentation or the traditional broadcast. Whichever way you decide to tune in, here’s what you need to know about tonight’s game.
