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.
D.Prescott led the Cowboys at +13.1 EPA (15 of 27 for 212). M.Lemon led the Eagles at +6.6 EPA (7 catches for 67).
