Resolution criteria

This market will resolve to YES if the designated home teams win 50% or more of the completed Week 1 games in the 2026 NFL regular season. If home teams win fewer than 50% of the completed games, the market will resolve to NO.

  • Definition of Home Team: The designated home team is the team officially listed as the host by the NFL. For the neutral-site international game in Melbourne, Australia (San Francisco 49ers at Los Angeles Rams), the Los Angeles Rams are the designated home team.

  • Calculation: There are 16 games scheduled for Week 1. Home teams must win at least 8 games to resolve YES. If any games end in a tie, they do not count as wins for either team. For example, a record of 7 wins, 8 losses, and 1 tie represents a 43.75% win rate, which would resolve NO.

  • Rescheduled/Canceled Games: If any Week 1 games are postponed, canceled, or not played to official completion within the Week 1 schedule window, the resolution will be calculated based on the percentage of games actually completed. For instance, if only 15 games are officially completed, the threshold for a YES resolution remains 8 wins (53.33%).

  • Source of Truth: Official game outcomes as published on NFL.com or ESPN.com.
