Brian starts with some leftover thoughts on the Celtics' season-opening loss and why some of their problems aren’t easily fixable (0:45). Then, he chats with Jonathan Peterlin of 92.3 The Fan in Cleveland about the upcoming Browns-Pats game, the Browns’ QB carousel, whether this is a potential trap game for the Pats, some recent LeBron James news, and more (14:35). Brian and Jamie end with the best bets for Week 8 of the NFL season (54:10).
