For the first time, two "Monday Night Football" games will kick off simultaneously as the Green Bay Packers face the New York Giants and the Miami Dolphins host the Tennessee Titans.

While the Dolphins will be hosting a Monday night game for the first time since 2017, the Packers and Giants meet on MNF for the first time since 1983.

The Packers will play their third straight nationally televised game after upsetting the defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs last week and defeating the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Day. A three-game winning streak has vaulted the Packers into the NFC playoff picture.

After a brutal stretch during which the Packers lost four consecutive games, first-year starting quarterback Jordan Love has impressed in recent weeks. Starting at quarterback for the Giants is undrafted rookie Tommy DeVito, who has won two of the three games he has started.

USA TODAY Sports’ staff picks for this game: 

• Lorenzo Reyes: Packers 26, Giants 12 — Green Bay has turned its season around and coach Matt LaFleur is 16-0 all-time in December games. And while the Giants have won two in a row, they were against the Commanders and Patriots.
• Tyler Dragon: Packers 27, Giants 16 — Jordan Love has played the best football of his career in the past three games. Green Bay’s three-game winning streak came against the Chargers, Lions and Chiefs. Now the Packers play a struggling Giants squad with Tommy DeVito under center. It’s a safe bet the Packers will win their fourth in a row.
• Safid Deen: Packers 24, Giants 17 — Jordan Love is playing the best football of his young career, and the Packers are turning a corner in their rebuild around him. Green Bay should have enough to beat Tommy DeVito and the Giants.
• Victoria Hernandez: Packers 24, Giants 10 — The Packers made a huge statement by beating the Chiefs last week as Jordan Love seems to be improving in confidence and Jonathan Owens is breaking out as more than Simone Biles' husband. The Giants are putting their trust in rookie Tommy DeVito and just don't have enough tools to overtake Green Bay's momentum.
• Jordan Mendoza: Packers 21, Giants 13 — Things are looking good in Green Bay with three straight wins, and with a favorable schedule it looks like a playoff spot could be in the future. The defense was able to contain Patrick Mahomes last week, which spells trouble for Tommy DeVito as the Giants suffer another primetime loss.

Playoff implications for 'Monday Night Football'

A win by the Dolphins tonight moves them back into first place overall in the AFC, though Week 17's visit to Baltimore could be decisive. Miami will remain the second seed with a loss.

Though a win is obviously preferable, the Packers will remain the NFC's seventh seed regardless of tonight's outcome. However if Green Bay loses, the San Francisco 49ers will become the first team in 2023 to clinch a playoff berth. — Nate Davis
