Brian opens with a lesson the Red Sox could learn from the teams currently still in the playoffs, then looks at Pats offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt’s unimpressive record after four games (0:30). Then, Brian chats with The Ringer’s John Jastremski about the upcoming Patriots-Dolphins game, the MLB playoffs, Bill Belichick’s future, and more (20:45). Brian and Jamie end with their best bets for Week 5 (44:30).
