Leave it alone... I see nothing wrong with the way it's played as is.

All this lets be fair BS is just that- TOTAL BS. Nothing is ever completly fair and trying to make it so is just plain stupid. More of this crap about no one really losing and so on; makes me want to throw up. Just like all those stupid rules protecting the QB. PLAY THE GAME AND WHOEVER SCORES FIRST WINS. JUST like it has been ever since the NFL began.
How confusing is it? It basically says first team to score 4+ points wins the game. Sounds easy to me.COWBOYSNUM1;3289655 said:Sounds too confusing.

How about 2 overtime halves of 7:30 min; if there is a winner after one period, cancel the second period?

I do think it's confusing to have one set of rules for the regular season and another set for the playoffs. What if someone scores with a safety and the other team kicked a field goal? Both teams would have had possession, but the game would continue because no one had scored 4+ points?crazytown41;3289781 said:How confusing is it?

Good rule change if it goes through.

That would make absolutely no sense.

It's the one thing I don't like about NFL Football. Once a game gets to OT it's no longer football. It becomes something a little different.
