English term or phrase: breathing room
I haven’t enjoyed a fight scene this much since the first time I read Ultimates, that’s for sure, but with that in mind, I’m hoping for a little more breathing room and some progress on the other plot threads in next week’s X-Factor.

Qual é a tradução de "breathing room"? Muito obrigado.
