The verdict · 2019 Week 11
San Francisco 49ers 36, Cardinals 26 — with the result never quite settled.
It turned at Q4 4:41, 3rd and 7, on J.Thompson — 32.4 win-probability points to the Cardinals on one snap, the largest move of the game, and it still was not enough.

Expected points are not on file for every man in this box score, so a side without one names nobody rather than naming its yardage leader.

The solid line is the betting market's home win probability; the dashed line is the play-by-play model's. The shaded band between them is the disagreement — emerald where the model liked the home team more, red where it liked the away team more.

Expected points added, per play
The centre line is an average play. A bar to the right of it is a side that gained more than the situation was worth; a bar to the left is a side that lost ground. All six bars share one scale, ±0.49 points.

The Read
7 of 8 readings cleared their snap floor and were tested against four comparisons: this week's whole slate, the team's own season, the week before, and the team's own ordinary spread. Every bar below is set in that team's own week-to-week swing, never in league points — one team's swing runs 1.6 to 3.1 times the entire league's spread.
high through week 11Against their seasonTendencies
SF's early-down pass rate, 70.6%, is past their previous high of 60.0% in week 10 — the highest of their 10 charted games through week 11.
2.2 times their own weekly swing above their number.
51 early downs this game, floor 15 — 16 of their games behind the ruler, and their own week-to-week swing is 10.8 points.
high through week 11Against their seasonOver Expected
SF's pass rate over expected, +5.4 pts, is past their previous high of −0.7 pts in week 10 — the highest of their 10 charted games through week 11.
66 snaps this game, floor 20 — 16 of their games behind the ruler, and their own week-to-week swing is 6.8 points.
SF's fourth-and-short go rate turned over: 20.0% in week 10 against 66.7% here — they took the kick then and went for it now, a turn of 2.0 of their own weekly swings across the two.
3 fourth-and-short calls this game, floor 3 — 7 of their games behind the ruler, and their own week-to-week swing is 22.8 points.

Was this normal for them?
7 of 8 readings cleared their snap floor. Every deviation below is measured in that team's own game-to-game swing, not in league points — because one game's swing runs from 1.6 to 3.1 times the whole league's spread.

The field map
Every snap, where it happened
The whole game as one hundred yards. The 49ers attack right, the Cardinals attack left, so a change of possession is a reversal you can see. Reading down is the order the snaps were played — not the clock, so a two-minute drill gets the same room as any other fourteen snaps. This game is final.

Personnel groupings
Offensive grouping on every pass and run. A group needs five snaps in this game before it gets a number — under that the sample is a coin flip and the cell reads a dash instead. The names of the eleven on the field are only recorded from 2023 onward, so this game gives the grouping without the roster.
