ABC/ESPN getting back in the Super Bowl mix, as well getting five flex games per season for MNF is a big win for them. There were a fair amount of Monday Night duds they had to stick with.
I know a lot of people like to trumpet the demise of sporting leagues citing waning fan interest but the NFL will be immune as long as they have a steady pipeline of players. Look at the most watched prime time broadcasts of 2020 as it's crazy how the NFL dominates;

If you are a major broadcaster you can't afford not to have a partnership with the NFL. As long as they don't get heavy into politics or get too cute with the rule changes they should be dominant for decades.
