  Just do college football OT rules, it's way better than anything the NFL has done.

  I hate it. Maybe woiuldn't mind if they started at the 50 though.

  I think the uncertainty around the time with teh college OT rules prevents them from going down that path.  The NFL has always been very focused on ending the games on time, or within a reasonable time.

  Geno for $37.5Mil or Dak for $65Mil, pretty clear what the better value is.

  This weekend we rock Portland

  Don't understand why they change, no issues with the way it was.  Fucking NFL.

  I mean, I think both teams should get the ball.
  
  I really do hate the dumb kickoff rules with the dudes standing there staring at each other.
  
  I'd like to see the 4th & 15 replace the onsides kick. Of course, then you're just an illegal contact away from keeping the ball, so there's that.

  I can see your position....and I know I sound like an old man (wobbie) but if you don't want to be subject to the OT rules, win the game in regulation.  
  I think the playoffs are different and am in favor of full quarters adding on (no different rules during them) and playing until there is no tie.
  
  I love baseball but already miss football, even if the team I root for looks like a joke.  
  Football is the best.
  Hockey playoffs starting up will help
  
  

  The love he receives is the love that is saved

  So you want them to play full 15-minute quarters repeatedly until it's not tied anymore? Dang. They're trying to get this done in a reasonable amount of time.
  
  Maybe modify the rules in OT so you kick off from the 20 instead of the 35, to make the drives easier. Or, hell, kick off from the goal line.
