ESPN dropped an ad on Monday for the 2015 Monday Night Football season-opening doubleheader. The 30-second spot above, dubbed “Double the Football,” hypes the two September 14 NFL games on ESPN, the Philadelphia Eagles vs. Atlanta Falcons (6:55 p.m. ET) and Minnesota Vikings vs. San Francisco 49ers (10:15 p.m.). It shows the biggest players in both games and The Falcons Drumline. The “No Other Night is Monday Night” campaign is from ESPN Consumer Marketing and Weiden+Kennedy New York with NFL Films. It will release weekly spots about upcoming MNF games during the season.
