Games where the losing team reached a high win probability and still lost: biggest collapses, most improbable comebacks. Powered by nflfastR play-by-play.
Heartbreak magnitude = the losing team's peak WP in the game. A 90%-peak loss is a bigger collapse than a 60%-peak loss. The same number reads as the winning team's comeback magnitude (their lowest WP was 1 − loser peak).
TAM peaked at 97% win probability, lost 31–30 to WAS.WAS bottomed out at 3%.
DET peaked at 96% win probability, lost 27–23 to GNB.GNB bottomed out at 4%.
