Win probability is nflverse's model, which starts from the betting line and updates before every snap with the score, the clock, down, distance, field position and timeouts. A swing is the change in one team's chance across a play, in percentage points. The turning point is the play after which the winner never fell to 50% again.
C.Lamb led the Cowboys at +2.5 EPA (7 catches for 110). J.Hurts led the Eagles at +7.1 EPA (19 of 23 for 152).
