Kalshi
These markets evaluate various thresholds of points scored by both teams combined in the second half of an upcoming football game, including any overtime periods. Each threshold represents a different level of scoring intensity that traders can speculate on.
These markets resolve based on the total points scored by both the Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers during the second half (including any overtime) of their Pro Football game scheduled for September 27, 2026. Each market has a specific numerical threshold; if the combined second-half points exceed that threshold, the market resolves to 'Yes.' Only points scored in the second half and overtime count toward these markets. The thresholds range incrementally from 3.5 to 42.5 points, allowing traders to assess different levels of scoring probability in the latter portion of the game. Kalshi explicitly disclaims any affiliation with the governing league, and all trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous auction mechanism, where traders buy and sell contracts representing their beliefs about the second half total points. The price of a contract directly corresponds to the probability of that outcome occurring. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. As more traders participate and new information becomes available, the price fluctuates, reflecting the evolving consensus. The market depth, visible on the dashboard, shows the available buy and sell orders at different price points, indicating the strength of conviction among traders regarding various point totals for the second half.
This market resolves around Sep 27, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the event is verifiable from credible public reporting. The final point total scored in the second half of the Bengals-Steelers game will be used to determine the winning contracts. The official NFL game statistics will serve as the basis for verifying the result. Traders who correctly predicted the outcome will receive a payout based on the contract price at resolution, while those who predicted incorrectly will forfeit their investment. This ensures a transparent and objective resolution process.
Several factors could influence the price of this market leading up to game time. Any news regarding key player injuries for either the Bengals or the Steelers would likely cause significant movement. Changes in weather forecasts, particularly if they suggest adverse conditions affecting scoring, could also impact trading activity. In-game developments during the first half, such as a dominant performance by one team or unexpected strategic adjustments, could also prompt traders to reassess their predictions and adjust their positions accordingly. Overall game strategy and perceived momentum will be key signals.
