NFL changes overtime format for playoff games

[PICK3]

Overtime proposal passes | ProFootballTalk.com

The National Football League owners have approved a change in overtime, starting with the playoffs following the 2010 season, that will modify the sudden-death format and prevent a team from winning a game with a field goal on the opening possession.

Should apply to all games

just sayin'

of all the solutions this one seems the worst.

agree with having the rule for all games.

the season's too short and each game is too important to have a different rule for declaring a winner in regular season and playoffs.
