Monday Night Football is often one of the most-anticipated games of the week. The 2014 schedule doesn’t include a few noteworthy games, but does have more than a few intriguing matchups.

The Monday Night Football matchup used to be the most anticipated game of the week. Flex scheduling has led to Sunday Night Football overtaking it as the game of the week in some regards, but the 2014 Monday night schedule will surely garner attention. The defending Super Bowl champions will make only one appearance on Monday Night Football. Seattle will travel to face the Washington Redskins in Week 5. The game of the year on Monday Night Football may come in Week 10 when the Panthers travel to face the Eagles. Carolina and Philadelphia are rising teams in the NFL and watching the Panthers defense take on the Eagles offense should be a treat.
Those hoping to watch Peyton Manning on Monday Night Football will have to wait until the final MNF game of the year when the Broncos travel to Cincinnati in Week 16.
