How to play GridClash Football
GridClash Football is a free NFL trivia game played on an Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe board. Each square sits where two headings meet: two teams, or a team and a stat. Claim it by naming a player who fits both, like Tom Brady for the New England Patriots and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The board
- 1. Fill a square.Name a player who fits its row and column.
- 2. Follow the board.Your square picks which small board the next answer goes on.
- 3. Get three in a row.Win three boards in a row, or any five.
- The board is nine small tic-tac-toe boards. Win a small board with three in a row or any five squares; win the game with three boards in a row or any five.
- Each player can be used only once per game.
- Two wrong guesses in a row on the same small board give a square to your opponent.
- The daily grid gives you five minutes; head to head is turn-based by link, with an optional shot clock.

Questions
- What is GridClash?
- GridClash is a free sports trivia game played on an Ultimate Tic-Tac-Toe board: nine small tic-tac-toe boards inside one big one. Each square sits where a row heading and a column heading meet, and you claim it by naming a player who fits both.
- What counts as playing for a team?
- Any game for that team, regular season or playoffs. A season split between two teams counts for both. Teams that moved count for the team they became: the Oakland and Los Angeles Raiders count for Las Vegas, the San Diego Chargers for the Los Angeles Chargers, the Houston Oilers for Tennessee and the Baltimore Colts for Indianapolis. Season stats count from 1999 on.
- How do stat squares work?
- A stat square pairs a team with an achievement. Season stats must happen in a season with that team; career totals and "one team only" or "3+ teams" are about the whole career. Winning the Super Bowl means playing for that team in a season it won. Stats count the regular season only.
- When is there a new daily grid?
- Every day at 6 AM Eastern. You get five minutes to fill as many squares as you can, and every square has at least 10 correct answers.
- Can I see the answers?
- Yes, once a grid is over. Past grids with every square's most picked answers are at /answers, and finished games show every correct answer when you tap a square.
- Do I need an account?
- No. The daily grid, practice and head to head all work without one. An account keeps your stats, puts you on the leaderboard and works on every GridClash sport.
- Where does the player data come from?
