What really happened
Final: Eagles 24, Titans 20. Eagles won 24-20 — the drive scored.
Eagles ball, down 3 — a field goal ties it. At their own 35, 1:56 on the clock, no timeouts left.
nflverse's historical win-probability estimate for this exact situation was 29.4% for Eagles. Our model starts at 30.9%. The two numbers are estimates, not verdicts — the gap between them is a reminder that endgame win probability is hard to pin down.
