We run the ball with 14 seconds left in a tie game and then the time out is taken after 3 seconds with 11 seconds left. No one would ever take the Time Out with 11 seconds left in that situation, anyway because of broken Time Out logic we make the FG and the other team get another chance with the ball.....

And sure enough http://goallineblitz.com/game/replay.pl?game_id=2466832&pbp_id=6360589 we get fucked out of a playoff win because of poor Time Out logic that shouldn't be an issue when this game has been around for 5 years...

Stop the offense with your defense next time....bad coverage led to your lose....not time out logic

Les Miles would.

Les Miles would call the fuck out of that timeout with 11 seconds left.

Les Miles would then send out the FG unit and have them run a fake play that results in a touchdown AND drains all 11 seconds off the clock, completely ignoring that his team is only down by 2 and just needs a FG to win.

Why?

Because LES MILES, that's why.

The moral of the story: we should all be more like Les Miles.

Part of the problem with this game tbh, even when people bring up a legitimate everyone thinks it's funny to call it whining or w/e else. You guys aren't funny or original in anyway.

crappy situation and i agree that a little thinking into perfecting the crucial aspects of the game would go along way.

Its a shame that your FS reacted to slowly to a wr clearly in position to streak past him. But I guess the FS doesn't have actual intelligence to recognize that a tackle saves the game and trying to make a play on an INT is far to risky.

I would be pissed for sure. Not the kind of thing that should be happening at this point.

Spot on. I was really pissed with the way this ended (I have a player on the losing team in question), and the TO flaw is glaring and unfair... BUT I know that FS's build and what happened in that play is a very real risk with that kind of dot. The winning team should never have had a shot, but given the shot I can't be pissed at how the play unfolded. It was the right route and right throw against that defense, and without ridiculous longshot bullshit like this the game of football would be boring!

The way around the TO flaw, I would recommend setting up a prevent D in the 4th quarter section of the DAI for when you are tied or up and the opponent is going to go for a last second bomb.

And my point wasn't that we shouldn't have an Input in the AI for a situation like that, just simply that the TO logic needs serious work and it should never have come down to that.
