BobbyPhil1781 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I didn't want to initially post this b/c it's kind of nothing at this point but there's really no news around this time of the year so it seems like we're ok to discuss this...... right?

In the regular season, it really doesn't matter to me. In the postseason though, I absolutely want to see it. As a result of that, if it's an "all or nothing" type deal, I will be 100% in favor.

And not even because I think the rule is unfair. I am just tired of it becoming a media circus when the team that gets the ball first wins.

biggie. Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 AFC Championship showed we don't need this. Just play defense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I have no problem if they do this, have no problems if they keep it the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeotheLion Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Not sure I love this for the regular season. Indifferent for postseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INbengalfan Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I feel like this is necessary, even after the Bengals won in OT in the AFCCG. It definitely had a huge hand in the divisional round. KC had the ball two straight possessions. Maybe Atlanta would have won the coin flip and scored too. Instead they watched Brady score two straight times without getting the ball to answer. I'll take it a step further. Maybe the regular season OT needs a slight tweak too. Instead of changing the r]ules, i could get behind a change in standings. I suggest using the hockey model, in that ties count the same as OT losses. No need to over-strategize about ties being more advantageous than taking a few risks to win. That Chargers_raiders week 17 looks completely different in that setup.

SteelKing728 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Its bound to happen, but why oh why did we go from 15 minute quarters to 10 in overtime? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stl4life07 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I think its stupid to extend OT all bc the opposing defense couldnt do their job and stop the opposing offense. So now that the opposing offense cant be stopped the other team offense will automatically get an turn. What is going to happen if the OT rules change is yes the team that wins the coin toss will score a TD then the other team will get the ball. That team will go down and score a TD too. The other team will get the ball back and one of their key players will get hurt in the process of them winning on a FG and then that team will advance in the next round of the playoffs without that key player and it will hurt them not just without that player but having played a longer OT so their body will be fatigue as the next playoff game goes along. The NFL shouldnt want any game to last longer than it already does bc it increases the chance of injury and wear and tear and fatigue for the next game as that game goes along. So again I think extending the OT is stupid especially in the playoffs. Teams have to be at their best when their best is required and they shouldnt rely on getting the ball back in OT bc they couldnt do their job on defense to make a stop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET80 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Just take another halftime to catch yourself breath and put another 15 minutes on the clock. That’s it. If neither team can hold a lead after that, both teams get a L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing devils advocate you can argue both sides should be forced to play defense in OT. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
