One prediction market prices this story:

  • J.J. McCarthy records 3+ passing touchdowns in a single game — the market puts it at 20%, closing 18 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if J.J. McCarthy throws three or more passing touchdowns in any single game during the 2026-27 NFL regular season. It resolves to No if he fails to reach that mark in every game of that specific season. Readers often mistake the linked trade news for a relevant event, but only his actual performance stats in the 2026-27 regular season count toward resolution.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
