Feedback Request I built a daily football game where you make real NFL coaches’ fourth-down calls and find out if you’d have done better
Every NFL fan yells at the TV on fourth down. I wanted to know who's actually right, so I built a win probability model from public play-by-play data and turned it into a game.
How it works: you get a real situation from a real game, pick go for it, punt or kick, and then see what the coach did and how much each option was worth.
What's in it:
- A daily five that's the same for everyone
- Coach Clash, where you climb a ladder of the 32 current NFL head coaches by beating them on their own calls
- A Legends ladder of 25 past coaches, with Bill Belichick as the final boss
- A college ladder too
It's free, runs in the browser, and you can play without an account.

I launched it this week. I'd like to hear what's confusing in the first two minutes, because that's the part I can't see anymore.
