Exactly...
Even without converting.
We kill 40s off the clock.
Kick a FG - Tie the game- go into OT.
In OT - we win the Coin Toss, attempt to go down and score a TD or FG. Score a TD and the defense doesn't have to do anything, game over we win. We kick a FG, then the Cardinals have to respond- it is easier to defend against a TD than it is to defend against a FG, so even if the Cardinals kick another FG to tie it again, we now have the ball, and would be in a better place to win with a FG.
we lose the Coin Toss - then our chances decrease - however, we at least will have a shot at scoring a TD on our possession.
