What really happened

Final: Bears 16, Packers 16. Tied 16-16 — the drive scored.

Bears ball, down 7 — it takes a touchdown. Near midfield, 1:56 on the clock.

nflverse's historical win-probability estimate for this exact situation was 13.5% for Bears. Our model starts at 11.9%. The two numbers are estimates, not verdicts — the gap between them is a reminder that endgame win probability is hard to pin down.

This is our own model estimate, not the real coach's grade and not a claim about what the “correct” call was. Football decisions depend on the opponent, personnel and game plan — the model only measures how a call changes win probability in this situation.
