You're losing, fourth and one at the 25, 2:30 left, 1 timeout (1 Viewer)

I said go for it in all cases. I understand the argument for kicking the FG in scenario 3 but you still need a TD and I would rather take my chances in converting a 4th and 1 at this point rather then trying to get the ball back and having to drive into the endzone at that point.

4th and 1 means you're very likely to call a running play so if you convert it you either have to burn the TO or lose a lot of time on the clock setting up the next play. The best case scenario is that you get the TD without using a TO, get the 3 and out, and get the ball back with 30 seconds left. That's the best case and the time could easily run out on you.If you kick the FG and kickoff, the offense will get the ball with 1st down before the two minute warning. This gives you an extra TO in effect so it will be 2nd down with 2:00 left. Assuming they are going to run the ball three times, on 3rd down there should be about 1:50 left after you called the TO. They run again on 3rd down which brings the time down to about 1:00. So you have 1:00 to score a TD.
