What is End Zone?
A randomized fantasy football draft game. Each pick rolls a random real NFL season, team and week — from a dataset running from 2000 through the current season, updated weekly — and shows you that team's actual box score, and you draft one player from it into your roster. Every score is a real historical performance, scored in full PPR — nothing is simulated.
Is this real-money fantasy sports?
No. End Zone has no entry fees, no cash prizes, and nothing resembling real-money play of any kind. Leaderboards are for bragging rights only. The Premium purchase described below is a one-time payment for extra site features, not an entry fee into any contest.
What's the difference between the modes?
Classic shows every player's real score on the board as you draft. Blind hides the numbers until a pick is locked in. Auction gives you a budget (pick $70, $100 or $150) and prices each player off their season average, board hidden, so you can score well above or below what you paid. Playoff (Premium) plays like Classic, but every roll comes from a real playoff game — Wild Card through the Super Bowl — instead of the regular season. Team Mode (Premium) also plays like Classic, but every roll that round comes from just one real NFL team's own games — pick the team yourself, or let the dice choose. Not Premium yet? You can still try each of Team Mode and Playoff mode once, free. Season Sim works differently from every other mode: instead of rolling a week, every pick rolls a real team and season and shows you their entire real roster — every player who actually played, with their season high and season low. Draft nine that way, and each pick's own real team plays out its whole real season for your final total. It's also the one mode that doesn't add to Career Points or count toward any badge. The daily challenge gives everyone the same rolls each day, played blind, once per day.
How is scoring calculated?
Standard full-PPR: 1 point per reception, 0.1 per rushing/receiving yard, 0.04 per passing yard, 6 points per rushing/receiving touchdown, 4 per passing touchdown, 2 per 2-point conversion (passing, rushing, or receiving), -2 per interception or lost fumble, plus standard kicker and team defense scoring. Source data comes from nflverse.
Do I need an account to play?
Not for most of it — Classic, Blind, Auction, Daily, and Season Sim all work without signing in. Playoff mode and Team Mode require an account even for their one-time free trial, since the trial itself is tracked per account. Posting a score to any leaderboard, and purchasing Premium, always require an account too.
Can I see every leaderboard in one place?
Yes — the leaderboards hub (linked from the home screen) has a tab for every mode. Classic, Blind, Playoff, Season Sim and all three Auction budgets each switch between a weekly board and an all-time one; Daily is always just today's board, Career Points and the Premium Members list are running lists with no weekly/all-time split, and Team Mode shows an all-time board for whichever team you pick. On any scored board, if you're signed in and not already visible in the top 25 (top 10 for Career Points), your own rank is pinned to the bottom, along with how many points separate you from the name directly above you.
What's a streak?
Your current run of consecutive days playing the daily challenge, shown on the home screen and (once it's 2 or more) as a small flame next to your name on leaderboards. Missing a day resets it back to 1 the next time you play. It only counts real, same-day plays — an archived replay (see below) never touches it.
What's the crown next to some names?
Founding-member status — free, automatic, and permanent for any account created on or before September 15, 2026. There's nothing to buy or request; it's stamped the moment a qualifying account is created. A public page (linked from the home screen) lists every founding member in the order they joined.
What's the Premium Members list?
A tab in the leaderboards hub, under Lifetime, listing everyone who's purchased Premium in the order they actually bought it — the Premium equivalent of the Founding Members page above.
What are Private Leagues?
Create a league and share its code with friends, or join one with a code someone gave you. A league's board is just your real, already-public scores filtered down to the people in it — it doesn't create any separate or hidden scoring of its own.
Can I install End Zone like an app?
Yes. On a phone, use your browser's "Add to Home Screen" option; on a supported desktop browser, look for an install icon in the address bar. Either way you get a real app icon and a full-screen window, with no separate download or app store involved.
What does Premium include?
Premium is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It unlocks unlimited Playoff mode — every playoff game since 2000, Wild Card through the Super Bowl, instead of the regular season — and unlimited Team Mode — every roll that round from just one real NFL team's own games (each is free to try once without buying anything) — removes ads, adds a customizable player banner and a custom name color shown everywhere your name appears, an upgraded shareable result card, and lets you replay any past day's daily challenge from the archive. It also adds a one-time points reveal per round on Blind or Auction, a Stats Dashboard with your score trend and per-mode averages, and 18 exclusive badges only Premium members can earn. Every Premium purchase also has its own permanent spot, in order, on the public Premium Members list. It's actively being built out with more perks over time.
Can I replay a past daily challenge?
Premium accounts can, from the "Play a past challenge" link on the daily card. It's practice only: an archived day plays exactly like the real thing did, but it doesn't count toward your streak and isn't eligible for any leaderboard, since everyone who ever picks that same past date would otherwise be playing an identical, already-solved board.
What is End Zone Bingo?
A 7x7 grid of 49 real, weird stat-line conditions — things like a kicker missing an extra point, a receiver with negative rushing yards, or a defense that allowed a shutout. Every real pick you ever draft (in every mode except Season Sim, since its picks are a whole season, not one game) is checked against every square you haven't already filled. It's shown on every profile, yours and anyone else's, so you can see how far along anyone is.
Does End Zone show ads?
Free (non-Premium) use of the site includes ads, managed through Ezoic and its network of ad partners — the same setup most ad-supported sites use. Depending on where you're visiting from, you may see a brief cookie-consent prompt before ads load. Premium removes ads entirely for that account. See the Privacy Policy for the full breakdown of what our advertising partners can and can't do with your data.
Is my payment information safe?
Yes. Payments are handled entirely by Stripe on their own hosted checkout page. End Zone never receives or stores your card number.
How do I delete my account or data?
See the Privacy Policy for how to request deletion.
