I wasn't a fan of the old OT rules where the first score won. NFL kickers are too automatic from 50 in, with some able to hit from 60. The rules now are fine. If you can't stop the other team from driving 88 yards for a TD, you don't deserve to win.

You are absolutely right. A college overtime would have caused thousands of 911 calls in Seattle. Flip the coin and let's play football!topdawgnc said:

I think the problem was the fact that Green Bay wore Kenny Wheaton's old uniform. Where is the uniform thread on this game?TierbsHsotBoobs said:

It used to be ridiculous. It was something like 70/30. I still think each team should get a chance, even after the Denver and GB games. Seattle would have probably won a nyway.RavennaDawg said:Win the toss and you win overtime 48.5% of the time.
Loose the toss and you win overtime 51.5% of the time. -
I heard it has to do with TV Advertising Contracts. If the NFL ever had a super long playoff game, (like Miami, KC years ago), they wouldn't make any money because they would be running commercials for free because the can't anticipate that in the ad contracts.Fire_Marshall_Bill said:
