NO PURCHASE NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED. See Complete Rules

Sponsor: Cody Blaze Enterprises LLC d/b/a MockSlate. MockSlate is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or associated with the National Football League, any NFL team, or any player. All league and team names are used for descriptive reference only.

Eligibility: Open to legal residents of the fifty (50) United States and D.C. who are 18 years of age or older at time of entry. Employees, officers, and directors of Sponsor, and their immediate family members (spouse, parent, child, sibling) and household members, are not eligible. Void where prohibited or restricted by law.

Entry Period: Entries are open now and must be saved and locked by the officially announced 2027 schedule-release time (~May 2027) ("Entry Deadline"). Sponsor's server clock is the official timekeeper.

How to Enter: Log in to your free MockSlate account, build your entry on the Contest page, review the Rules, confirm you are 18+, and click Save. One (1) entry per account. Multiple accounts or entries per person will result in disqualification of all associated entries.

Prize: One (1) prize of one hundred U.S. dollars ($100.00), paid by Zelle or Venmo (winner's choice) to the sole winner within 30 days after winner verification. Approximate Retail Value: $100. Odds of winning depend on the number and quality of entries received and skill applied. Winner is solely responsible for all applicable federal, state, and local taxes.

Judging and Tiebreakers: Entries scored per the published Scoring Rubric (below). In the event of a tie: the earliest-submitted entry wins. Sponsor's scoring decisions are final and binding. The Scoring Rubric and Tiebreakers are frozen at the Entry Deadline and will not be changed thereafter.

Winner Notification and Publicity: Winner will be notified by email at the address on their account within 14 days of the Entry Deadline. If a potential winner cannot be reached within 7 days of the first notification attempt, or if a prize is returned as undeliverable, the prize will be forfeited and awarded to the next-highest-scoring eligible entrant. By entering, winner grants Sponsor the right to publish winner's display name in connection with contest results and promotional recap on MockSlate-owned channels.

General Conditions: Sponsor reserves the right to cancel, suspend, or modify the Contest if fraud, technical failure, or any other factor beyond Sponsor's reasonable control impairs the integrity of the Contest, as determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion. Sponsor may disqualify any entrant it believes has tampered with entry, scoring, or the Service.

Privacy: Information submitted is handled per the MockSlate Privacy Policy at mockslate.com/privacy.

Disputes and Governing Law: All disputes are governed by these Rules and the MockSlate Terms of Service (including the arbitration and class-waiver provisions), and by the laws of the State of Florida without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

Entry

  • Free to enter — no purchase necessary. MockSlate Pro is not required and never affects prize eligibility or odds.
  • Entrants must be 18 or older with a MockSlate account, US only at launch. Void where prohibited.
  • One entry per person per season. Entries are editable until the lock; to withdraw, delete your entry before the lock.
  • Entries lock at the officially announced schedule-release time (~May 2027). No new entries or edits after the lock.

How to play

  • Allocate exactly 100 shares across the 32 teams. Your shares are your predicted relative share of the league’s primetime schedule.
  • Primetime games are defined by the published slot taxonomy: Kickoff, Thursday Night, Sunday Night, Monday Night, Thanksgiving Night, and Christmas Night. Both teams in a primetime game receive credit for the appearance.

Scoring

  • When the schedule releases, the real primetime distribution (team appearances across the slots above) is normalized to 100.
  • Your score = 100 − (sum of absolute per-team differences ÷ 2). Higher is better; a perfect portfolio scores 100.
  • Graded instantly on release day; results publish to the public national leaderboard.

Prize & tiebreakers

  • $100, awarded to the top-scoring entry on the public national leaderboard.
  • Tiebreaker: the earliest-submitted entry wins the tie.
