Spoiler alert: The answers to NYT Strands #37, dated April 9, 2024, are below. The theme clue is “Can I have my quarter back?”
What is the spangram for Strands #37?
The spangram is TEAMPLAYERS. In Strands, the spangram summarizes the puzzle’s theme and stretches across the grid from one side to the opposite side. The answer is listed in both the WordHint April 9 archive and Try Hard Guides’ Strands #37 archive.
What are the theme words?
- COWBOY
- DOLPHIN
- PANTHER
- PATRIOT
- RAVEN
- TITAN
These names and nicknames are associated with sports teams; TEAMPLAYERS supplies the broader team connection. The answer archives corroborate the list, but this connection does not establish that every word refers exclusively to an NFL team.
How to use these answers
Strands is a themed word-search game: connect adjacent letters to form theme words, while the spangram expresses the shared idea and crosses the board. The answer archives describe finding non-theme words of four or more letters as a way to earn hints. The archives do not establish exact letter-by-letter routes for this board, so no specific path or hint sequence is provided here.
#1 Best Overall
The answer list is corroborated by two dated archives, not an official NYT confirmation: WordHint’s entry is for April 9, 2024, and Try Hard Guides published its answer page on April 8, 2024, ahead of the puzzle date.
