The Chiefs backfield is in shambles right now; Damien Williams did not play last week with a rib injury, Derryl Williams left last week’s game with a hamstring injury, and Andy Reid has shown he doesn’t trust LeSean McCoy enough to feature him throughout the game. Thompson had a lot of buzz around him in training camp, maybe the time is now for him to show what he’s got.

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 Chiefs were good back in the days of the NFL merger and the early days of the Super Bowl. Fast forward to today and we can agree the Chiefs have been elite since the arrival of Patrick Mahomes. At times, he is magical with his no-look passes. But Mahomes and the Chiefs enter 2022 without a key weapon in Tyreke Hill. Nevertheless, there is still reason for plenty of excitement for the upcoming season in KC! Let's play Wiki-Pete-ia! Good luck!
