Vikings-Giants: Are you ready for a historically bad MNF matchup? - TwinCities.com

The MNF opponents' combined 1-10 record of futility is about to make history for the venerable prime-time program that debuted on ABC in 1970 before migrating to ESPN in 2006. The networks have televised 684 games but never one between teams with a joint winning percentage as low as .091 this late into an NFL season, the Elias Sports Bureau confirmed to the Pioneer Press.

The matchup at MetLife Stadium features 1-4 Minnesota against 0-6 New York in a Week 7 clunker for the ages. On Dec. 15, 1975, the Jets (3-9) visited the San Diego Chargers (1-11) and had combined .167 winning percentage -- the worst Monday night matchup until now.
