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.Burrow led the Bengals at +7.7 EPA (24 of 46 for 261). D.Henry led the Ravens at +5.0 EPA (10 carries for 60).
