September 23, 2014 at 9:06 am #8300RamBillParticipantMorning Ram-blings: An improbable result
By Nick Wagonerhttp://espn.go.com/blog/st-louis-rams/post/_/id/12005/morning-ram-blings-an-improbable-comeback
EARTH CITY, Mo. — The Dallas Cowboys made a bit of history in their come from behind victory over the St. Louis Rams on Sunday.
In surmounting a 21-point deficit, the Cowboys tied the record for largest comeback in franchise history. The lost lead was the second-worst in Rams franchise history but no less devastating than any other loss of recent vintage.
For a better glimpse of just how big of an advantage a 21-point second quarter lead is, we now have plenty of advanced statistical formulas. The fine folks of ESPN’s Stats & Information offered a breakdown of how Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo led the charge but the more interesting piece here is the win probability chart which shows how far Dallas had to go to overcome the Rams.
After cornerback Janoris Jenkins’ interception return for a touchdown and a stop of running back DeMarco Murray for a loss of 2 yards on the ensuing drive, Dallas had just a 3 percent chance to win.
We all know what happened next.
