The Colts remained undefeated with a 29-7 thumping of the Jags, and the game led all television networks � broadcast or cable � in prime time delivery of the key male demos (M18-34, M18-49, M25-54), as well as P18-34 and P18-49. MNF has "won the night" in these categories every week this season.

ESPN's eight NFL games account for the first-, third-, fourth-, fifth-, sixth-, seventh-, tenth- and eleventh- most-watched shows on basic cable in 2007 among households.

In addition to leading all networks on Mondays among men, MNF leads all prime-time shows � any network, any night � in time spent viewing among all viewers. The average viewer spends 55.9 minutes watching ESPN's Monday Night Football.
