This event tracks the number of passing attempts made by specific quarterbacks in a football game between New England and Seattle. The outcome depends on whether the chosen player meets or exceeds a certain threshold of pass attempts during the match.
All markets in this event resolve based on the total passing attempts recorded by either Sam Darnold or Drake Maye in the New England vs Seattle Pro Football game scheduled for September 9, 2026. Each market has a specific threshold (ranging from 26+ to 37+ passing attempts) that must be met or exceeded by the respective quarterback for the market to resolve to 'Yes'. If the quarterback is active but does not take any snaps, the market settles at the fair market price determined before the game starts. Once a quarterback takes at least one snap—even if that play is nullified by a penalty—the market settles based on the actual number of passing attempts recorded during the game. These rules apply uniformly across all markets, ensuring consistent evaluation of outcomes based on the defined thresholds for each player.
Typically, prediction market odds reflect the wisdom of the crowd and can differ from sportsbook odds, which are often set by experts and influenced by factors like house bias. Sportsbooks may initially offer odds based on pre-game analysis, while this market allows traders to adjust their beliefs as new information emerges, such as injury reports or weather forecasts. It’s common to see discrepancies, especially closer to the event, as the market incorporates a wider range of perspectives than a traditional sportsbook. However, both aim to predict the same outcome – the total passing attempts in this game.
On Kalshi, this market is priced through a continuous order book where traders buy and sell contracts representing different passing attempt ranges. The price of each contract reflects the probability of that range occurring, as determined by supply and demand. As more people buy contracts for a specific range, the price increases, indicating a higher perceived likelihood. 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 profitable traders are rewarded and those with inaccurate predictions may incur losses. This dynamic pricing mechanism aims to create a market that accurately reflects the collective intelligence of participants.
This market resolves around Sep 10, 2026, with the outcome confirmed once the final official passing attempt count for the New England versus Seattle game is verifiable from credible public reporting. The resolution will be based on the official game statistics published by the NFL. The specific passing attempt total will determine which contracts pay out, and the payout amount will depend on the contract's price at the time of resolution. Traders holding winning contracts will receive a payout based on the market's rules.
Several factors could influence the price of contracts in this market. Any news regarding the starting quarterbacks for either team, such as injuries or changes in playing status, would likely have a significant impact. Weather conditions, particularly wind or rain, could also affect passing game strategies and therefore shift the market. Unexpected changes in coaching strategies or offensive play-calling could also move the market. Finally, any late-breaking news or analysis from reputable sports analysts could influence trader sentiment and lead to price fluctuations.
