no more extra periods. At that point, just alternating 2-point conversions like a hockey/soccer shootout.
Hate it. I don't want a game decided on who can make a two yard gain or not. It would be like having a FG kicking contest. Play75 minutes of actual football to have it decided by a gimmick? No thanks. It's not broken, it doesn't need fixing.

And football is not like hockey, as far as the schedule and games played is concerned. A loss in a game like this is much more important in football. How many games are in a hockey season? One loss isn't as detrimental to what happens in the standings. It is in football.

Dammit, it would have been awesome if Green came down with that.

what you think about college's rules then? They have even less games than NFL.

Although gh I would be in favor of this London game being a tie and then the Brits going WTF.

That would be changing overtime entirely. Which would be a metric shit ton better than that abomination you suggested about lining up and going for two over and over in a "shootout".

If you want to change OT to the college rules, fine. I could get behind that. At least it's still playing football and not relying on a retarded gimmick to declare a winner.

I never thought Sudden Death OT was that bad.

Apparently, John Lynch is still suffering from concussion issues.

"It's been a well played football game on both sides..."
