How it works

1

Create your pool

Pick this week's NFL game from the live list, optionally add a pool name and a max-squares-per-person limit, and you're ready to go.

2

Share the link

Open the pool for claims and copy the participant link. Players tap any open square, enter their name (and optionally their email), and it's theirs — no login needed.

3

Lock & draw numbers

When selection closes, lock the board and generate numbers. Share the draw page so everyone watches 0–9 get assigned to each team live — all at once.

4

Winners highlighted automatically

As each quarter ends, scores are fetched from ESPN and the winning square glows on the draw page instantly. The game manages itself.
