Through two preseason games and the Patriots seem to have a conundrum at quarterback; at least outside the walls of Foxborough. Joe discusses why choosing Drake Maye as the Pats' starting quarterback over Jacoby Brissett should be the call for Jerod Mayo. Then, why the race for the playoffs isn't over for the Red Sox after winning their series in Houston over the Astros.
Game action finally went down for the Patriots and their preseason opener left more questions than answers.

Jon also describes what he's seen during joint practices with the Eagles and what to really expect in their upcoming preseason game.
There haven't even been any preseason games and the drama is running wild throughout Foxborough for Patriots' Training Camp.

Also, besides the controversy what to watch for in the Pats' preseason opener.
For the first time in a few years, the Red Sox didn't do any selling at the trade deadline rather they bought and adding. To help analyze every move, WEEI and WBZ's Joe Weil joins to look at every name that was added and subtracted and if they will make a difference in the Sox push for the postseason.
Feels so long ago when things were awesome with the Red Sox, but now four straight losses have brought the vibes down quite a bit. Joe dives into if things can turn around for the Sox and if Craig Breslow will still invest at the trade deadline.

At the All Star break, the Red Sox have surprised most and currently sit in a playoff spot in the American League Wild Card. Joe chats with WEEI Sox host Cooper Boardman about what has the Red Sox where they are and if this can last after the break to keep the fans' faith alive.
The party doesn't stop on this wild Red Sox year as they take it to the Yankees once again this time in the Bronx.

If you've been caught up with the Celtics and their championship and have wondered about the Patriots, no need to worry.
