Career Path

Read a career one stop at a time and name the player. Every extra stop you buy costs score, and so does a wrong guess.

What is Career Path?

Career Path reveals an NFL career one stop at a time -- the club he came into the league with and how long he stayed, then the trades, the free agent moves and the returns to teams he had already left -- and asks you to name him. The fewer stops you need, the more it is worth.

How to play Career Path

Tips and scoring

A wrong guess costs more the more of the career is showing, which makes guessing cheapest at the very start. Make the speculative attempts off the first stop or two, not after you have opened up the whole path.

Naming him off the first stop alone is worth 10,000, so the opening team and how long he stayed deserve real thought before you ask for anything else.

The path does not run out the way you might expect. Once the stops are exhausted it keeps going into his position, the year he was drafted, his college and his initial, so a two team career still has plenty of game left in it.

Career Path questions

What is a round worth?
Naming him off the opening stop alone is 10,000. Every further stop you ask for takes the ceiling down, so the first team and how long he stayed there deserve real thought before you open anything else.
Do wrong guesses cost me?
Yes, and they cost more the more of the career is showing. That makes speculative guessing cheapest at the very start, which is the opposite of how most people play it.
What happens if he only played for two teams?
The path keeps going. Once the stops run out it continues into his position, the year he was drafted, where he went to college and his initial, so a short career is still a full game.
