Titans-Dolphins, Seahawks-Lions on Monday Night Football

The NFL will present two Monday Night Football games tonight for the second year in a row.

The Detroit Lions, led by charismatic coach Dan Campbell, host the Seattle Seahawks, who are off to a 3-0 start under first-year coach Mike Macdonald, in a nationally televised game between NFC playoff contenders, that could light up the scoreboard.

The action begins with the Miami Dolphins hosting the Tennessee Titans in a matchup of struggling teams trying to gain a foothold in the AFC.

Enjoy this week if you are a fan of the MNF doubleheaders: you will have to wait until Week 7 and Week 15 for the next Monday night games.

Here's everything you need to know about the two Monday Night Football games in Week 4 and how to watch them:

Tennessee Titans (0-3) vs. Miami Dolphins (1-2)

  • Time: 7:30 p.m. ET
  • How to watch: ESPN/Fubo
  • Betting odds: MIA (-1.5); O/U37

The Dolphins named quarterback Tyler Huntley as the starter for Monday's game, two weeks after joining the team following Tua Tagovailoa's concussion in Week 2.

Miami hopes Huntley, a Pro Bowl replacement in 2023, can help the offense improve from its poor performance last week in Seattle, where the Dolphins were 1-12 on third down and gained just 205 yards.

The Titans rallied with two touchdown drives in the final 2:40 to beat the Dolphins 28-27 on Monday Night Football in Week 14 on December 11th.

It was a Dolphins loss that ruined their playoff position and a Titans win that set the stage for Will Levis' second season as quarterback.

But Levis struggled with five interceptions and two fumbles in Tennessee's 0-3 start under Brian Callahan.

Seattle Seahawks (3-0) at Detroit Lions (2-1)

  • Time: 8:15 p.m
  • How to watch: ABC/Fubo/ESPN+
  • Betting odds: DET (-3.5); O/U 46.5

The Lions bounced back from a disappointing loss to the Buccaneers in Week 2 to beat the Cardinals in Week 3, but this Week 4 matchup won't be easy.

They face a Seahawks team they have lost to in each of the last three years, in games in which both teams combined to score at least 60 points.

Detroit's Jared Goff and Seattle's Geno Smith could join Tom Brady and Ryan Fitzpatrick (2011-12) and Drew Brees and Aaron Rodgers (2011-14).

Seattle won last season under former coach Pete Carroll 51-29 in 2021, 48-45 in 2022 and 37-31 in overtime. New Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald is aiming for a 4-0 start to his career.
