Week 7 of the 2024 NFL season features a tantalizing Monday Night Football doubleheader.

First, the Buccaneers and Ravens each look to remain atop their respective divisions when they square off in Tampa.

Baltimore has shaken off a slow start, rattling off four consecutive victories thanks to a white-hot offense. Last week, Derrick Henry ran for 132 yards and two touchdowns; the veteran running back leads the NFL with 704 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns.

Baker Mayfield's squad is certainly capable of keeping pace, especially after hanging 51 points on the Saints last Sunday. Mayfield leads the league with 15 passing touchdowns.

A little later Monday night, the Cardinals will host the Chargers.

Jim Harbaugh's team comes off a thorough victory over Denver with a 3-2 record, relying on a strong running game and sturdy defense. 

Another test awaits against Arizona, which will have receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. after the standout rookie departed last week's game early with a concussion.

The Sporting News has you covered with everything that you need to know about the Monday Night Football doubleheader.
