Kalshi
These markets focus on predicting whether one team will dominate the second half of a football game by a specific margin. Outcomes depend solely on the point differential after the second half, excluding any overtime periods.
All markets resolve based exclusively on the point differential in the second half of the specified football game, with overtime points excluded from consideration. Each market defines a different threshold for victory: if the Kansas City Chiefs win the second half by more than a set number of points (ranging from 1.5 to 13.5), the corresponding 'Yes' outcome for Chiefs markets is triggered. Conversely, if the Denver Broncos win the second half by more than a set number of points (ranging from 2.5 to 10.5), the corresponding 'Yes' outcome for Broncos markets is triggered. The thresholds vary incrementally, allowing participants to assess different levels of dominance. All markets share the same secondary rule, ensuring consistency in point-counting methodology across all outcomes.
Typically, prediction market odds reflect the wisdom of the crowd and can sometimes differ from traditional sportsbook odds. Sportsbooks set lines based on their own models and risk management, while this market is driven by individuals trading on their own insights. If a significant discrepancy exists, it may suggest that the market believes the sportsbook has mispriced the probability of a particular outcome. It’s common to see prediction markets move more quickly than sportsbooks in response to new information, as they are continuously updated by traders.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order book, where traders buy and sell contracts representing different point spreads for the second half. The price of each contract reflects the probability of that spread occurring, as perceived by the market participants. On Kalshi, prices reflect that venue's order book, liquidity, and how traders price the outcome right now. Traders are incentivized to provide accurate predictions, as they profit if their contracts are correct. As more traders participate, the price converges towards what the market believes is the true probability, creating a dynamic and informative view of the potential outcome.
This market resolves around Sep 15, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the official result of the second half spread is verifiable from credible public reporting. The resolution will be based on the final point spread achieved in the second half of the Broncos-Chiefs game. Any adjustments or official rulings made by the league will be considered in determining the final outcome. Traders holding contracts on the correct spread will receive a payout, while those on incorrect spreads will forfeit their investment.
Several factors could influence the price of this market. Any news regarding injuries to key players on either the Broncos or Chiefs would likely have a significant impact. Changes in weather conditions, such as heavy rain or strong winds, could also shift the market as they affect the style of play. Furthermore, in-game performance during the first half, such as a dominant offensive showing by one team, could lead to traders adjusting their positions and moving the spread. Public sentiment and late-breaking analysis could also contribute to price fluctuations.
