Seems like you still have a shot at tying the game.

That does mean scoring a touchdown on this drive - which is certainly your last - while hoping the Diamonds don't manage a quick TD afterwards. And, of course, who knows what'll happen in overtime? If you make it that far (knock on wood) you'll need to defend a drive, as your opponent gets the ball first, so a lot of things need to go right for you to pull out a win. Still possible, though.

Agh! Tough break for you, Phiba.

(Drive stalled at the Diamonds' 10-yard line, down by 7 points, and the engine kicked a FG with 30 seconds of play left. Never change, GI.)

If you'd taken the 4th down the clock would've beaten you anyway.

Eh?

His team kicked the FG with at least 30 seconds left on the clock. It's no sure thing, but Phiba just needed a 10-yard play to tie the game. Passing on the 4th down would mean a chance to get that play.

Great win, fathead! Onwards to the AFLC...!
