I had 9 seconds left to score a TD. This was after coughing up a 75-yard touch down to Odell Beckham, Jr with 26-seconds to go, when I was ahead by 4 and could only lose by them scoring a touch down. I was 75 yards away from end zone after Tommy Bohanon, of all people, fielded the kick and couldn't be brought down, even though I wasn't fighting for yards. I picked "Hail Mary" waited 4 seconds and then heaved up the ball to R1 since they were all in a jumble anyway. The ball went through six people's hands and landed in CeeDee Lamb's gloves with no one around him. He ran up-field and scored my needed touch down with 0:00 on the clock.
