It’s the battle of the birds when the Falcons and Eagles meet Monday night in Philadelphia. The Eagles are coming off an opening week win, with running back Saquon Barkley shining in his Eagles debut. The former Giants back rushed for over 100 yards and scored three touchdowns in the team’s win over the Packers in Brazil. Kirk Cousins, however, had a less-than-stellar debut in Atlanta, leading the offense to just 10 points and throwing two interceptions in a loss to the Steelers.

The Falcons and Eagles kick off in Philadelphia tonight at 8:15 p.m. ET (5:15 p.m. PT) on ESPN. You can turn to ESPN2 during the game to watch the ManningCast with brothers Peyton and Eli, the popular alternative broadcast in which the former NFL greats analyze the game and talk with different guests each week.

If you don’t have a cable or satellite TV subscription, you can still watch Monday Night Football with a live TV streaming service. The good news for football fans is that ESPN and ESPN2 are available on all five major streaming services, including DirecTV Stream, which has a deal with DirecTV and Disney that ends the ESPN and ABC blackout.

What’s the problem with DirecTV and Disney?

DirecTV and Disney have been battling for two weeks over licensing and bundling deals that led to Disney pulling its channels, including ESPN and ESPN2 and ABC, from DirecTV’s satellite and streaming services. Last week’s Jets-49ers game on Monday night, for example, was blocked from DirecTV satellite and DirecTV Stream subscribers.

The two companies reached an agreement last Saturday that will make the Disney channels available again to DirecTV customers so they can watch college football again this weekend and catch tonight’s Monday Night Football game between the Falcons and Eagles on ESPN and the ManningCast on ESPN2.
