Final Minutes

The video begins with Detroit facing a third down and 12 with just over three minutes remaining and protecting a two-point lead.  Can Gus Frerotte convert this third and long or will it fall on the Detroit defense? There is nothing like playing the Master game in a close contest in the final minutes of the game. For me, it’s almost like watching the game on the television.  Get ready for a wild ride that only APBA can take you on.

Note: On a fumbled punt d10 is the primary returner (TA) for the defense but since he is 40-yards down field and the fumble occurred 20-yards behind the line of scrimmage, I always treat it that the punter recovered the fumble.  This is my “homegrown” rule and I should have explained it during the video clip but I was too caught up in the moment.  

 

Game 56

What’s the old golf saying, “You can’t win the tournament on Thursday but you can lose it”.  Jake “The Snake” Plummer is 2 of 11 for 7 yards and two interceptions.  Can he lead a scoring drive or will he falter?

Note: At the end of the video clip, I placed a card down on the field and dislodged the football.  I incorrectly placed it however corrected prior to next series.

Game 50

Ragnar is blowing his horn and the 64,106 screaming fans are enjoying a 28-6 beat down of the division rival, Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Trent Dilfer has been benched for ineffectiveness and Shaun King is inserted into the lineup.  Can Shaun King turn the tide and lead the Buccaneers to a scoring drive?
