How to unlock the Game Winning Field Goal achievement in Kinect Sports Season Two - Definitive Guide
Two methods of getting this:
1st: Credit to x InSoMniA for pointing this out
Set the computer to rookie and make sure the game is tied or you can win by a field goal late in the 4th quarter.
(I myself prefer to be on the 20 yard line or less when I kick the field goal)
2nd:
Try winning in overtime if for whatever reason you couldn't win the game at the end by a field goal. For those who are not familiar with overtime in American football, all you have to do is make sure that the game is tied at the end of the 4th quarter.
Once your in overtime just march down the field to about the 20 yard line and kick the field goal to win the game! This should be easy considering that you always get the ball first when playing against the computer in overtime.
Just remember that you cannot chose the "Kick Field Goal" option unless your close enough to the goal posts and its 4th down.
If you find yourself in kicking range a little faster than you hoped, just choose a short pass play and throw the ball as soon as you hike it. This will increase the chance of an incompletion and if your receiver does end up catching it, they at least wont be too far out to score a touchdown. Just remember not to run if the receiver ends up catching it.

Just make sure the field goal is the last score you make. You cannot get it out the way early and then match the oppositions touchdowns.

I found it easier just letting the scores be even towards the end of the game, then just score a field goal on your last try.. no need for letting it to go into extra time

All I did to obtain this achievement was play with a friend. Just play until you're close enough for a field goal. Once you have the 3 points, just run the time out and don't score any more points. The achievement will pop up instantly.

This worked for me although, just to be clear, I did it totally on my own. Just signed in another profile, played a VS game, scored a field goal on my account and then just hung around the middle of the field untill the game ended.

I earned this one through my own method.
Start a two player VS. match. When the game starts, you will have to select either heads or tales for who will kick or receive. If you (Player 1 earning the achievement) wins the toss, hold your left hand down on a 45 degree angle to bring up the menu/Kinect Guide and select RESTART GAME. Do this until you lose the toss and your opponent, player 2, receives.
Once you lose the toss, you will receive as player 2. When you receive the kick off, run a little forward to make sure you don't get sacked (Quarterback takedown) in your end zone through Players 2's 4 downs. Now, through downs 1 to 4, just crouch, stand and wait to get taken down (sacked). Make sure when it tells you to punt that you don't.
Here is the time for the achievement. Hopefully you are around 15-20 yards from the uprights (goal). Select a play and get sacked through down 1 through 3. On down four you should have the option to kick a field goal, select it and kick for 3 points.
As for the rest of the game, you can easily crouch and stand for each team's 4 downs until the end or you can throw it back and forth with small throws to have a little fun and gain some yards towards the RUNNING STAR achievement (run 1000 yards).
If you are having trouble getting in range for the field goal, you might need to do a "Quick Hit" or "Mirror" play to move a little closer.
When the game ends, the chievo should pop.
I did this on my first try using this method, best of luck fellow Cheivo Hunters!

You could potentially do this on a two-player game or by yourself. Get the game to overtime, and kick a field goal to end the game. This can be done in single-player with careful planning, but no matter what, overtime is ideal.
