The Cowboys outcome resolves if they win the scheduled NFL game on October 4 at 1:00 PM ET. The Texans outcome resolves if they win that same game.

  • Dallas — the market puts it at 41%, with $263k traded in the last 24 hours, closing 6 Oct 2026. The market resolves to Yes if the Dallas Cowboys win their game against the Houston Texans. The outcome depends solely on the result of this specific match originally scheduled for October 4, 2026. Readers often mistake the deadline or assume other games count toward this resolution.
  • DAL Cowboys over 23.5 points — the market puts it at 49%, with $493 traded in the last 24 hours, closing 6 Oct 2026. The outcome is Yes if the Dallas Cowboys score more than 23.5 points in their game against the Houston Texans on October 4, 2026.
