    Answer: GRIDIRON
    Explanation: Per 11-A, we need to find out the ways we can score in the NFL and see what their values are worth! The oblong grid accommodates rows like VESTIGE/CANBERRA and BIKEPATH/TRADING. You'll need the clues here: a glance down the acrosses sees the beginning of the four ways a point is often scored in football (omitting the two-point conversion!): VESTIGE/CANBERRA (Touch, Down); TRIP/MEDAL (Field, Goal), BIKEPATH/TRADING (Safe, Ty), ODD/NAME (Extra, Point). Those four plays are, respectively, worth 6, 3, 2, and 1 points. The correspondingly numbered letters in the entries spell out GRIDIRON, the apropos answer to the meta. My favorite grid remains the crossword type, even so!

      Hike! Thanks
      • Pair O Ducks 🤓6:47 · 2024-11-10T00:57:23.616Z
        Thanks, Mikey! This puzzle inspired me to finally look up what "gridiron" means 😆 I always see it in crosswords, and then forget to look it up!
        • Mikey G constructor · 2024-11-12T18:08:20.978Z
          I literally clued NFL first as "Gridiron org.," and I was like, "Wait, that's the meta," hahaha.
        • Tyrpmom 4s · 2024-11-10T16:51:16.809Z
          I liked it!
          • KayW 🤓7:53 · 2024-11-10T21:38:05.827Z
            OMG I got a sportsball meta! LOL it took me long enough but FINALLY that clue at 11-across leapt up and bit me on the nose. A very clever metanism and a fantastic AHA moment. Actually TWO fantastic AHA moments. Thanks,Mikey!
            • Mikey G constructor · 2024-11-12T18:08:37.536Z
              Three cheers for sportsball!! You did it! Love your enthusiasm and positivity! May both teams win lol
            • whimsy 🤓10:35 · 2024-11-11T13:52:39.529Z
              Gah! I did not see those beginning words of the eight clues involved -- although I recognized some of them were a bit unusually worded. And I knew points were involved but I was thinking we'd be going to a crossword factory instead of a football game. What's a crossword factory? -- well, maybe the place where they make those little wooden scrabble tiles that have tiny numbers in the corners that show their worth! Can you spell BUNNY? --It's worth 10 points!
              Good going, Mikey!
              • Mikey G constructor · 2024-11-12T18:10:23.400Z
                Your posts always bring whimsy, true to your name. I would go to a crossword factory, if it were a thing! Maybe we'd see an ANOA holding an ETUI!
              • kurtalert 🤓5:46 · 2024-11-11T17:17:48.344Z
                Oooooh, awesome. Never would have gotten it without the nudge, but very fun to work through it from there. Thanks Mikey!
                • MatthewL 🤓6:28 · 2024-11-11T21:44:34.972Z
                  Needed the nudges, and an extra hint, but finally got there. Definitely a Level 4 (at least to me). Thanks for the puzzle, Mikey!
                  • hoover 7s · 2024-11-11T22:38:59.395Z
                    Ohhhhhhh! After the mostly mysterious nudges, I saw TOUCH DOWN and FIELD GOAL and EXTRA POINT, but somehow missed SAFE TY and got distracted by 24A clue "overtime" and 25A clue "throw."
                    • Abide 3s · 2024-11-12T05:05:25.410Z
                      Went from a Bear to a Commander. Got it after the math nudge for 11-Across. Hats off to anyone who got there before that. Great puzzle!
                      • HeadinHome 51s · 2024-11-12T05:40:30.295Z
                        Carelessly typed S instead of L for ELI/ALANTE (and I just could not spot it!) so I had to reveal. I got some sideline coaching on this one.. partly my math was bad after the nudge.. though if NFL had been center or bottom right, I think I would have gotten this alone! Nice to do a FOOTBALL puzzle I can actually figure out.
                        • DrTom 4s · 2024-11-11T20:36:37.300Z
                          Wow, very nicely done. I was looking at two things ITS (A GO) and (COVER UP) to see if there were things that went with GO (looked at past tense items, there were at least 8 but they spelled nothing) and things that might be a cover (like OLAY maybe) and what was UP from them. Then I figured that the wording of X across meant something, just in the way it was written and I looked for FG, TD, EP, Safety as words or abbreviations but found none. Had I just been smart enough to look in the clues. The last twist was a nice one, but of course I just did what I was told....
                          • Alex Sisti 3s · 2024-11-12T15:51:57.169Z
                            Wow! Loved it...
                            • Darth 🤓14:00 · 2024-11-15T23:47:56.055Z
                              This was fun, and it gave me a reason to learn something about football. haha Yeah, I only know soccer. ;) Thanks, Mikey!

                                Four scores... but so many combinations to go! (https://nflscorigami.com/) Send this week's puzzle to Canton, Mikey!
                                • omnilynx 🤓18:39 · 2024-11-18T04:47:57.439Z
                                  Glad I gave up, never would have gotten that one.
