THAN use the college rule................ not THEN use the college rule. I don't care what they do, but if the OT can also end in a tie, then itis idiotic.

The purpose of overtime always was to determine a winner.

An overtime that has a good chance of ending in a tie is the convention of a jackoff. WTF good is an overtime if the game ends in the same fukcking tie it did in regulation? Use the college system, or don't have overtime at all. Just flip a coin. The NFL overtime protocol is horseschidt.

You absolutely crushed it. Honestly, I don't think overtime was really ever on the minds of the NFL because ties were so rare. It seems that recently there's been a rash of tie games, and maybe that will be enough to finally get things to change. I think the college system is perfect AND extremely fun to watch.

When did you become the spelling bee Nazi?

And I don't mind a few ties. The ties that have happened so far will make these division races interesting.

WTF are you talking about? They CHANGED things this year!. That is why you have had the ties. And look at my stats above about tie games. There was no "rash" of ties...until this year. The lessened the OT period for "safety reasons". Yea, right.

And if you think the college system is perfect, then you have turds for brains.

7 OT college games are brutal enough, in the NFL the Injury Report would be a mile long.

Throw bottles on the field until the refs say "the game is over"?

Yes, let's powder their cuunts and give them all participation awards. Keep changing the rules so that all teams finish the season 0-0 16 and then we can sing campfire songs. Fukcking idiots. If they get fukcked up they get fukcked up. On one hand, you homos are crying about over protecting the QB, and now you are crying about protecting everyone else.

The tie needs to be eliminated from sports alltogehter. Certainly, a tie has no place in the NFL.

Poosies.

Nice thought. But still, if you elect to defend, you are a bad play away from getting somebody free and getting the game winning TD.

OR.....by taking the ball first, you're saying to your offense, go out there and score a TD and win the game for us. I'd rather that aggressive approach as opposed to making your defense have to make a stop for the game to continue.

Try reading something like (oh there are hundreds of documented articles just ask the NFL). https://concussionfoundation.org/CTE-resources/what-is-CTE

Suicides and miserable deaths from CTE aren't done by your poooosies. (just ask the Seau, Iron Mike Webster, Snake Stabler and many other families who have donated their deceased ones brains to science for study).

Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) is a degenerative brain disease found in athletes, military veterans, and others with a history of repetitive brain trauma. In CTE, a protein called Tau forms clumps that slowly spread throughout the brain, killing brain cells. CTE has been seen in people as young as 17, but symptoms do not generally begin appearing until years after the onset of head impacts.

Early symptoms of CTE usually appear in a patient's late 20s or 30s, and affect a patient's mood and behavior. Some common changes seen include impulse control problems, aggression, depression, and paranoia.

As the disease progresses, some patients may experience problems with thinking and memory, including memory loss, confusion, impaired judgment, and eventually progressive dementia. Cognitive symptoms tend to appear later than mood and behavioral symptoms, and generally first appear in a patient’s 40s or 50s. Patients may exhibit one or both symptom clusters. In some cases, symptoms worsen with time (even if the patient suffers no additional head impacts). In other cases, symptoms may be stable for years before worsening.

Learn more about the symptoms of CTE from Dr. Robert Stern, director of clinical research at the Boston University CTE Center......

........One concussion in the absence of other brain trauma has never been seen to cause CTE.

The best evidence available today suggests that CTE is not caused by any single injury, but rather it is caused by years of regular, repetitive brain trauma. There are also many individuals who suffer years of head impacts, but do not develop CTE. More research will help us understand these factors in the future........

CTE has been found in...	Source of head impacts
Boxers	Punches to the head
Tackle football players	Hits to the helmet
Soccer players	Headers and collisions
Ice hockey players	Fighting, checking
Military veterans	Blast injuries, combat
Victims of domestic abuse	Repeated violence

& I don't. Hate the college system. If it's a tie, it's a tie. NFL playoffs, you play until someone wins.

Ahhh, I see. So you'd rather just have an untimed playing period until someone scores? I'd be fine with that. Or what they do in the playoffs, just have another OT period.

I would prefer that to the garbage that the college game calls OT. Play football. Playing football means involving all aspects of the game...not just red zone offense and defense. That includes kickoffs and punts.

Yeah the college scenario goes something like this:

"OK men after 60 minutes of exciting football we have a tie.....so now we're going to scrimage from the 25 yard line and see who can score but to play fair both teams get to play. Now play nice."

I almost prefer a regulation tie except in playoffs which go to "sudden death". Even sounds cool, sudden death.

Heard this somewhere else...but what about no punts in OT, have to go for it on 4th down.

Nope, 10 minutes NFL regular season is fine by me. There's ties all the time in soccer- until they get to the World Cup knockout rounds. College OT? LOL, Just have a punt, pass, & kick competition to determine the winner. Just as much fun.
