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.
J.III led the Jets at +6.2 EPA (3 catches for 45). D.Maye led the Patriots at +11.6 EPA (25 of 34 for 281).
