SEGMENT - Jones and Keefe react to Adam Schefter telling WEEI Afternoons that the Titans may not pass up on a "generational talent" in favor of a QB. What should the Patriots do if Abdul Carter or Travis Hunter are off the board at #4?

Here is how the show looked today

HR1 - Initial reactions to the McDaniels hire

HR2 - Patriots offseason mantra: C's get degrees

HR3 - Celtics with Turp | Patriots need hits, not home runs

HR 4 - Discussing McDaniels past with developing young QBs

During the first hour of Jones and Keefe the guys discuss the hiring of Josh McDaniels and how it can lead to more wins in year two of Drake Maye. Jones does not really like the Josh McDaniels hire. Drake Maye is already the second best QB he has ever had. Keefe goes through each year of McDaniels career, including the Tom Brady years. How can he get the most out of Drake Maye? Callers do not like the hire.

The idea of not overwhelming Drake Maye is appealing. He now has someone he can rely on and be comfortable with. Alex Van Pelt was not really an OC, McDaniels is. We are more optimistic about the offense today than we have been in a while. How much credit does he get for Brady’s best years? Not much, but Keefe says that there is some credit to give.

During the second hour of Jones and Keefe the guys discuss offseason grades for the Patriots. Keefe is generous and gives them a B-, but Jones thinks C is more accurate so far. They have to make some additions in free agency! Then, Billy asks three would you rather questions which begins a discussion about MLB HOF ballots and snow vs rain. Finally, a Ska conversation.

During the third hour of Jones and Keefe the guys discuss the Celtics and their failure to meet expectations with Justin Turpin then back to the McDaniels discussion. Who made the hire? Was Tommy Reiss Vrabel’s number one choice? Where did McCown and Chip Kelly fall on the list? It is a much more appealing job this season. There is something to be said about swinging and missing with Mayo, then hiring Vrabel, a guy who can actually coach at the NFL level. Do the Patriots need to hit some singles before swinging for the fences?

Top ten movies Rich Keefe is most excited to see in 2025!

from new Marvel movies featuring Harrison Ford, to Mickey 17 directed by the same person who did Parasite featuring Robert Pattinson, there is a lot to look forward to in this new year.

During the final hour of Jones and Keefe the guys discuss Josh McDaniels track record with young QBs, break into the day's storylines missed during the Grab Bag, and end with Jones comments on gas pumps.

Bruins minute: who was Brad Marchand barking at this time! He told the team to clean it up! During morning skate. Who will be injury managed for the Celtics tonight? Kevin O’Connell signs extension. Getting to the bottom of the Baseball Hall of Fame ballots. Jones respects the person who did not vote Ichiro in. Trump’s diet coke button. What would your button be?

Celtics insider Justin Turpin joins the show to discuss how the Celtics have gone .500 over their last stretch of games. Who is to blame? Will they be better later on in the season? Will we see Pritchard in the three point competition?

Alternative rock discussion. Keefe only plays ska in his car. It is fast, which he likes, and so do the kids. Ska is also clean. The girls love Lil’ Jon. Jones has to try Ska. Does cussin = cursing?
