Philadelphia, we have your answer. After a wild Monday Night finish in Los Angeles, fans woke up asking one thing. Where can I watch Eagles vs Chargers, and can I catch the Monsters Funday Football version that everyone is talking about? I confirmed details overnight with the league and networks. Here is exactly how to watch the broadcast and the animated altcast, plus what mattered on the field.
How to watch Eagles vs Chargers, right now
The Week 14 Monday Night Football game kicked off at 8:15 p.m. ET on Monday from SoFi Stadium. The main broadcast ran on ESPN and ABC. The NFL and Disney also delivered a full animated alternate broadcast, titled Monsters Funday Football, that mirrored every snap in real time.

Open the ESPN app, go to NFL, then Replays. The Eagles at Chargers tile includes both full and condensed versions once processed.
This was a true two-screen night. Mike Wazowski cheered the Eagles. Sulley backed the Chargers. Roz appeared as a sideline voice. Families flocked to the Monsters world, while diehards stayed with the standard feed for the all-22 angles and protection notes. Both versions are available to stream today, based on your subscriptions.
You will need valid TV provider credentials for ESPN and ABC replays. Disney+ and NFL+ require active subscriptions. Local blackouts do not apply to replays.
Why the animated altcast hit the mark
This was not a gimmick. It was a full broadcast, with down and distance, first down lines, and Next Gen routes, all rendered inside the Monsters, Inc. universe. The crew leaned into teaching moments. Camera cuts slowed down the scrum at the line. Blocking techniques were easier to follow. That matters for young fans and new viewers.
It also changed how families watched. Parents could sit with kids for three hours without losing the rhythm of the game. The action carried the same stakes, just with bright colors and clean graphics. It felt like a window into how live sports can evolve, without losing the sport’s heartbeat.
What happened on the field, and why it decided the game
The Chargers beat the Eagles 22 to 19 in overtime. That score line reflects a trench battle shaped by key absences and smart counters. The Eagles played without right tackle Lane Johnson and interior force Jalen Carter. Protection slid and tightened, but the edges still leaked at times. That showed up on third downs.
Jalen Hurts authored the night’s strangest moment. In the second quarter, he threw a pick, then got the ball back on a fumble, then lost it again. It was a rare two-turnover sequence on one play. It rattled the Eagles rhythm and flipped field position.
Philadelphia struck back with craft. They lined up for a classic tush push. Then they pulled the rug. Saquon Barkley took the snap and burst outside for a 52 yard touchdown. On the animated feed, it played like Mike Wazowski breaking the sound barrier. On the grass, it was perfect timing and angles from the line and tight ends.
The Chargers answered with balance and poise. Their returns mattered. Running help gave them downhill options, and the offensive line held up late. The defense, fresh off key rotations, won the leverage snaps in overtime. A measured drive, one chunk throw against quarters, and the last kick settled it.
The subtle roster shifts you missed
The Eagles activated safety Marcus Epps, and his range showed in red zone fits. But without Carter’s inside push, the rush lost some bite. That helped the Chargers extend plays. Philadelphia’s missing anchor in Johnson tested their protection rules, especially in long yardage.
On the other sideline, the Chargers’ reinforcements helped with pace. They stayed on schedule, mixed personnel, and kept the Eagles from pinning ears back. It was not flashy. It was sound football, and that wins in December.
Where this leaves both teams
For the Chargers, an overtime win at home is a tone setter. They handled pressure, controlled the clock late, and executed on special teams. For the Eagles, the blueprint still works. The run game remains dangerous, the creativity is alive, and the defense, even shorthanded, forced long fields. Cleaning up giveaways and third down protection is the path forward.
