NFL looking at overtime rules

[Synovia]

Here's how I think the OT Should work. It should be a 15 minute sudden death continuation of the game as it is being played in the 4th.

So if you have the ball with 2 mins left and drive down field to kick a game tying FG as time expires, you are kicking off in the 5th quarter, just as you would in the transition of the 3rd to 4th quarter.

This will create the need for tons of new strategy at the end of games.

No it wont. In a tie game it will just take away any urgency. Teams 50 yards down away from the end zone will dink and dunk down the field irrespective of time running out, knowing that they're going to keep the ball in overtime.

The NFL should adopt the college rules with regard to overtime.

It would end the Cash Cow that is Fantasy Football.

First team to score 4pts should win!

Mike and Mike made a pretty good case for first team to 6 last week.
