Detroit Lions 15, Packers 9 — with the result never quite settled.
It turned at Q4 1:09, 4th and 2, on Samori Toure — 28.7 win-probability points to the Packers on one snap, the largest move of the game, and it still was not enough.

How the game was won
The model and the market were 13.6 win-probability points apart on the average play, and 25 apart at the widest — with the model the more convinced about Lions.

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, ±0.35 points.

Neither side “wins” volume or play-calling mix, so neither is drawn as a duel: Packers ran 69 snaps at a 70% dropback rate against Lions’s 57 at 46%. Red-zone trips: Packers 5, Lions 3.
NotePackers outgained Lions 390-257 but lost the turnover battle 3-1. That was the game.

The Read
12 of 12 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.

One dot per reading, placed at how far it sits from that club's own normal in that club's own standard deviations. 12 of 12 readings cleared their snap floor.
DET's early-down pass rate, 39.5%, is past their previous low of 47.2% in week 3 — the lowest of their 8 charted games through week 9.

Was this normal for them?
12 of 12 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 Game Day Roster
Who was out, who dressed and never took a snap, and who was on the field how much. Game-day list and snap counts from the weekly roster and snap feeds. Practice-squad and injured-reserve players are not shown — they were never on the game-day list.
3 players played under 8 snaps, so their shares read as a dash rather than a number. 1 line has no expected-points read and sits off the plane.
Expected points are modelled in full PPR, so the “vs expected” column stays in that unit whichever format the pills are set to. Switching the pills changes the points column, not the plane.
The field map
Every snap, where it happened
The whole game as one hundred yards. The Lions attack right, the Packers 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.
