Which best describes the events that led to the creation of the US Constitution?

When it looked as though the US was going to win the War for Independence, the Continental Congress created the United States Constitution which outlines the form of government we still use today.

The States were under the Articles of Confederation, a document that gave power to a strong executive and Congress, essentially recreating the British system and therefore going against the ideals of the Revolution.
