Monday Night Football features the Denver Broncos and the Los Angeles Chargers. So today we tackle Broncos and Chargers Trivia on Wiki-Pete-ia on the Shemon and Sheppard Show .

In case you are not fortunate enough to be lucky caller number nine at 239-337-ESPN, then you are in luck! Play at home and dazzle your family! Stump your co-workers with useless knowledge! Amaze your friends with your newfound intelligence! Below are the actual questions AND ANSWERS heard during Wiki-Pete-ia on our show.

The Broncos and Chargers feature two young head coaches who have struggled. It could be argued that Brandon Staley's coaching decisions last year probably cost his team the final AFC playoff spot. This year he has also made questionable game ending decisions. And Nathaniel Hackett has not figured out how to use new Broncos QB Russell Wilson. Plus, let's not forget the dreadful Broncos' performance the last time they were on national TV, against the Colts on Thursday Night Football one and a half weeks ago.

So let's prepare for Monday Night Football with the Denver Broncos and the Los Angeles Chargers with Trivia on Wiki-Pete-ia. Are you ready for some football?

Good luck to you!
