KJ Carson fills in for Arcand tonight to get hyped about this Sunday's matchup between the Patriots and Buccaneers specifically for Drake Maye. With the game being nationally televised, what would a win over Baker Mayfield and the Bucs do for how the NFL looks at the Pats' QB?

Then, everyone is excited for success to be back in Foxborough and even with a loss that return won't take a drastic hit.

And, the Celtics looked better in their win last night over the Wizards, but for the lineup change that Joe Mazzulla may make, there will always be a drastic flaw.

The full edition of The Christian Arcand Show with Meghan Ottolini and Jon Lyons filling in on Wednesday, November 5th, 2025.

Meghan Ottolini and Jon Lyons fill in tonight and give their reactions to a subpar trade deadline for the Patriots. For the first time since the offseason, the power structure is in focus between Mike Vrabel and Eliot Wolf.

Then, with a wide open AFC, the chance was there for the Pats and they blew the opportunity which could haunt them by season's end.

And, looming extensions for guys like Christian Gonzalez and Drake Maye could be the cloud surrounding New England that no one is talking about.

Drake Maye has been on an incredible roll which the numbers clearly support, but there's one stat that Mego and Lyons agree is under more of a microscope. Why passer rating should take a back seat to turnovers?

Then, hoop head Mego gets into the Celtics and the roster construction is more at fault for their recent losses instead of Joe Mazzulla's three-point philosophy.

And, some disagreement among radio hosts in this building in regards to Derrick White's sluggish start.

Less than 24 hours from the official start of free agency, Red Sox news trickle in and the feeling about Alex Bregman's return start to get uneasy. How real is the possibility the Sox lose out on bringing Bregman back?

Then, the New England dining scene is starting to be all about how it looks on social media for the New England Nightly News.

And, a reset on the Patriots trade deadline (or lack thereof) and predicting how the locker room will react to no moves being made.

An early preview of the Patriots' toughest test in a few weeks when they go to Tampa. Jon Lyons explains to Mego why he believes the Bucs are overrated and New England can escape with a win.

Then, Arcand Fire gets into Jayden Daniels' tough injury, Kyler Murray's potential exit from Arizona, and Tom Brady admitting he's cloned his dog.

And, reacting to a much-needed Celtics blowout win over the Wizards.

Mego and Lyons give their thoughts on Jayden Daniels' unfortunate injury, Kyler Murray's time in Arizona potentially being over, and Tom Brady revealing he cloned his dog in tonight's Arcand Fire.

The trade deadline is now in the rearview and the focus for the Patriots is against the Buccaneers in Tampa. Mego and Lyons give their early thoughts on the matchup and why a complete game is necessary for a seventh straight win.

Mego and Lyons get into the New England Nightly News regarding a story on how some Boston restaurants are getting big business from out-of-staters because social media influencers are posting their food.

Free agency begins in less than 24 hours and even though deals won't get done right away, the Red Sox have the money to fill their needs. From Alex Bregman to a starting pitcher: don't rank them, just go get them.
