3 prediction markets price this story:

  • Jared Goff — the market puts it at 2%, closing 1 Feb 2027. The outcome is Yes if Jared Goff ranks as the top-scoring quarterback on ESPN's Fantasy Football PPR Quarterback Rankings for the 2026-2027 regular season. Otherwise, the outcome resolves to No. Readers often mistake the linked story about Bears coach Ben Johnson for a relevant factor, but only the final ESPN rankings determine the result.
  • Jared Goff — the market puts it at 6%, closing 2 Feb 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Jared Goff throws at least 40 passing touchdowns during the 2026-27 NFL regular season. It resolves to No if he falls short of that total. Readers often mistake the linked article's bold predictions for the actual resolution criteria.
  • Jared Goff — the market puts it at 6%, closing 18 Jan 2027. The market resolves to Yes if Jared Goff ranks first in scoring among all quarterbacks during the 2026-27 NFL regular season. It resolves to No if he does not finish in that top spot. Readers often mistake the deadline, thinking it depends on playoff performance or a specific contract year rather than the full regular season standings.
