Thursday Night Football has been horrible for the most part on Prime Video.  However, I am intrigued by this Raiders at Rams matchup.  More on that in a moment.  But today we will do Raiders at Rams  Trivia on Wiki-Pete-ia on the Shemon and Sheppard Show on ESPN Southwest Florida.

And GOOD NEWS!  Our phones are back for the first time since Hurricane Ian!

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.

So why should we be intrigued by two teams with a combined record of 8-16?  Let's start with the Raiders.  They entered the season with high expectations with coach Josh McDaniels.  But their 2-7 start was nothing short of disastrous.   However, they have won their last three games and are back in the playoff hunt.

The Rams are 3-9 despite being the defending Super Bowl Champions.  The wheels have fallen off and they might start Baker Mayfield at QB despite the fact he just joined the team two days ago.  This might be must see TV.  Let's have some fun and play Wiki-Pete-ia!

Good Luck!
