Career Guess

Daily sports guessing games, in one place

Career Guess is a free collection of daily NFL and NBA puzzles in the spirit of Wordle, Poeltl, and the Immaculate Grid. Each day brings four new player puzzles across two modes — Career Path (guess the player from their team timeline) and Season Stats (guess the player from one season's stat line). Same puzzle, same player for every fan worldwide. Five guesses. Spoiler-free sharing. New puzzle at midnight UTC.

If you've been searching for an NFL Wordle, an NBA guessing game, or a Poeltl alternative that covers both leagues, this is it. Every past puzzle stays playable in the archive, and your win streak follows you across modes.

Frequently asked questions

What is Career Guess?

Career Guess is a free daily NFL and NBA player guessing game. Every day at midnight UTC, four new puzzles drop — NFL Career Path, NBA Career Path, NFL Season Stats, and NBA Season Stats. Same puzzle, same player for every fan in the world.

How is it different from Poeltl, Immaculate Grid, or NFL Wordle?

Poeltl gives you one hint at a time (height, team, age). Immaculate Grid is a 3×3 team grid. Career Path shows you the player's full team timeline in order — your job is to recognize the journey. Season Stats is a pure stat-line puzzle: name the player from one real season's numbers.

How many guesses do I get?

Five. Each wrong guess reveals one more hint (draft year, position, college, championships, team, year). Win or lose, you can share a spoiler-free emoji grid of your result.

Is there an archive?

Yes — every past puzzle is playable. Use the 'Past puzzles' link on any game page, or jump straight to /archive.

Does it cost anything?

No. Career Guess is free, no signup required. Your streak is stored locally on your device.
