Monday Night Football will see the San Francisco 49ers take on the New York Jets to begin the 2024 season. There is typically some form of double header on Monday Night Football. Things start out with a big showdown and then a hit-or-miss matchup.

You can probably predict which game the 49ers and Jets are playing this year. The 49ers are favored to win it all, but the Jets are regarded as one of the AFC’s top teams. The 49ers are favored in this specific matchup by a touchdown. The little-known tale of Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ desire to be a 49er but his rejection in the selection will also receive a lot of attention.

Were you aware of that? It’s sort of random trivia that’s not known to many football enthusiasts.

Anyway, the 49ers were the opposite opponent after what one would think would be a more entertaining game in 2015 and 2016. They were the second Monday night game in the opening double header of the MNF Season. Although those two 49ers teams prevailed in their MNF openers, many would rank those two football games as the worst of their respective seasons. If there was any hope from either of those teams, it was quickly dashed by Week 2, and by season’s end, the two 49ers teams’ coaches were sacked. Each is only granted a single coaching year.
