The New York Giants just can't get out of their own way. In Mike Kafka's first game as interim head coach, Big Blue blew an early lead and fell 27–20 to the Packers at MetLife, dropping to 2–9 on the season and extending their losing streak to five games. On this episode of Locked Up Sports, Bob and Brett break down everything from Jameis Winston's up-and-down performance in relief of Jaxson Dart, to a defense that once again melted in the fourth quarter, to a run game that flashed with Tyrone Tracy Jr. but couldn't carry them all the way. Then we turn the page to Week 12 in Detroit, where the Giants are more than 10-point underdogs against Jared Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown and a 6–4 Lions team looking to bounce back after a frustrating 16–9 loss in Philly. We'll hit the betting line, matchups, injury updates on Dart's concussion status, and what a realistic “path to an upset” looks like — if there even is one — as the Giants look to snap an 11-game road losing streak.

The New England Patriots beat the New York Jets 27–14 on Thursday Night Football, their eighth straight win behind a monster 3-TD night from rookie TreVeyon Henderson and another MVP-caliber performance from Drake Maye. The Jets fall to 2–8, their offense stalls again, and the questions around Justin Fields and Aaron Glenn get even louder. Then we spin it forward to Sunday at MetLife: Giants vs. Packers. It's Mike Kafka's debut as Giants head coach, Jameis Winston's first start of 2025, and a banged-up 2–8 Giants team trying to upset a 5-3-1 Packers squad fighting for NFC playoff position. We'll break down Jets–Patriots drive by drive, talk about Henderson's breakout, Maye's MVP buzz, the future at QB for the Jets, and then dive into matchups, injuries, and keys to Giants–Packers plus the biggest games on the Week 11 slate, including Lions–Eagles, Seahawks–Rams, Bucs–Bills and the Madrid game. #NFL, #NFLWeek11, #Jets, #Patriots, #JetsNation, #TakeFlight, #GoPats, #Giants, #GiantsPride, #GoPackGo, #GiantsVsPackers, #NewYorkFootball, #LockedUpSports, #NYCSports, #FootballPodcast

The Mets are officially on the clock in Vegas. Pete Alonso and Edwin Díaz have both hit free agency after opting out of their deals, and David Stearns is trying to thread the needle between keeping his stars and reshaping the roster. We break down the latest from the GM Meetings in Las Vegas, what Scott Boras is saying about Alonso, where things stand with Díaz after a dominant 2025, and which free agents Stearns should be targeting as the market opens. We'll talk Alonso's monster walk-year season, Díaz's contract calculus after another elite campaign, the Mets' stated priorities in center field, the rotation and the bullpen, plus which names on this winter's loaded free-agent board actually make sense in Queens.
