REMEMBER----New OT rules for NFL playoff games

[sweethook]

should be that way all the time

A coach would be foolish to not take the ball to start OT, despite the rule change.

I still do not know why they did not go for the logical solution: Two 5-minute periods.

You may personally like this solution, but that doesn't mean it's "the logical" solution - LMAO! I don't think the word "logic" means what you think it means.

The logical solution, clearly and obviously, would be to simply send the strongest guy from each team to face off in the middle of the field - in a CAGE!!!

i think a change for the best

Exactly. Because if he scores a TD the game is over.

if you look at the stats of overtime games the team that got the ball first only wins 50% of the time anyway. So they should of left the rules alone imo....

most of the time both team get the ball ....

[darren125]

such a weird decision to pilot the new rules in the playoffs....

Can't wait to see new rules in effect. You gotta really trust in your DEF to be willing to defer. Even with a good def i'd rather receive. Go Chargers 2011-12!
