TV deals would have to be reworked before they made any change to the OT rules to include an extra quarter. As it is now games are getting cut off early due to TV restrictions. I doubt the NFL would be OK with damn near an entire quarter not getting televised.

If there's any TV network stupid enough to cut off an NFL game in overtime, especially after the Heidi Bowl, they deserve to have their NFL rights taken away.

ITS NFL broadcasting rules, if early games go too long they can only stay on it so long before they are required to cover the next game, the networks don't have a choice in the matter.

Wasn't thinking about a game coming up right after the first one. In that case, they have no choice. But isn't that somewhat of a problem, already? I mean, if a game goes into OT, it often finishes when the 4:05 and 4:15 games have already started.

In my mind.. the NCAA version is the fairest way to handle the game beyond letting them play out the entire overtime.

IMO.. the regular season can stay like it is.. but the post season OT rules need to be changed to either a full quarter or NCAA version... it balances out the value of the coin flip.

I like the rules as they are.

I like that it's sudden death - much more exciting, but with such good offenses now it does seem like the coin toss almost certainly determines the winner. I would keep sudden death, but make it so you need to score a touchdown - no field goals to win.

I like the college rules. Gives BOTH teams a chance. At first i didn't like the college rules, but after watching a few OT's, i enjoyed it.
If you "only" kick a FG, your D has to hold the other team from a TD.

BOTH teams get an equal chance, and it doesn't come down to a coin toss.

Bingo.. beyond playing out a full quarter.. it balances out the opportunities of the game.

I might make it more than 25 yards that teams have to go.. maybe 40 - 45 so it challenges the decision just to go for a field goal and make a TD harder.. but IMO college has it closer to right than the NFL as far as being a fair competition.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
