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.Hill led the Ravens at +8.7 EPA (3 carries for 76). P.Mahomes led the Chiefs at +13.6 EPA (25 of 37 for 270).
