Yeah. That too. You missed the go ahead 5 points (most likely winning game) FG 2 minutes earlier and in the next 6 plays i got in a perfect position and my K didn't miss.
I won't argue the fact that i was the lucky one in the end.

Well if you have it that is great, but something is not right in your playbook.
If it did work you should have went for the FG with 10 seconds left in the game instead of the Shotgun-4WR pass you attenpted and got sacked.
So again, in the playbook you have "Check your playbook" and set the exact situation you were today and find where the mistake is.

Your final possession ...
2:12 on the clock- a run =32 seconds off the clock
1:40 on the clock- incomplete pass= 9 seconds off the clock
1:31 on the clock- a run = 31 seconds off the clock
1:00 on the clock- a run = only 14 seconds off the clock
0:46 on the clock- a run = only 15 seconds off the clock
0:31 on the clock- your 14 yard pass = only 18 seconds off the clock
0:13 on the clock your field goal

I'm not sure that last 13 seconds should have existed, if just one of those runs went for the normal time the game would have been over before your field goal.

But congrats you won the game ... with some game engine help.

Thank you and .... only one thing to say here.
My team always goes no huddle when the games is on the line and after the catch at 0:31 the WR got out of bounds and stoped the clock.

And on the short time runs ? Where is the no huddle option in the playbook ? You won the game & that's that. But I don't feel like you defeated me, you were out playbooked & out played. I think the engine decided that a 78.7 overall rated team should not lose to a 69.7 rated team.

But again, your Ravens are a very good team and I don't want to beat a dead horse. The results are in the books & we'll get you next time.

It was meant to be a joke.
First of, check other games with similar scored and you will see that most of them in the last 2 minutes, plays take 15-25 seconds. So that is how the last minutes develop for teams who are behind and are on offense.
Second, out playbooked & out played, why? I'm not sure where your pointing it here, but next time we will meet i will make you reconsider that statement.
Third, this was power mode. It could have gone either way. But perhaps you were out playbooked and outplayed.
The dice rolled, both offenses played like shit. Would it had been better to be a one sided game, hell no. I'm wondering if you were the one who won, would you still had the same objections.
Perhaps not, because you were the winner.

Thank you. The same to you. With you being an old manager i expected a different aproch, but a loss is a loss. It's frustrating and i get it. I've been there. So good luck next time.

After typing all the reasons you were out played & out playbooked I deleted them. There's no sense in continuing, you'll convince yourself of whatever you need to feel good. It's truly no skin off my back, I've been joining Friendly cups (& will continue to do) for the games but not expecting to win much of anything ... yet.
This team is at least 2 seasons of training away from being a truly competitive team but we're getting there. I look forward to you whipping my ass in some future game to convince me your just better ... forgive me if that makes me smile a little. Best of luck to you & your Ravens the rest of the season.

No problem. It's a free word (in most places) and everyone has the freedom of having opinions. We will see how our future games will turn out.
Good luck to you the rest of the season.

Not here to comment on the outcome of the game, because I haven't looked at it at all, and I don't really care. But in regards to the more rapid play calling at the end of the game, that is totally legit. If the trailing team has the ball with less than 1:30 to play in the 2nd and 4th quarters, the team automatically goes "no huddle" or "hurry up" and squeezes in a few extra plays.
