    Starting in 2012, regular-season overtime will be the same as postseason overtime, and a field goal on the first possession does not end the game.


    NFL changes regular-season overtime to match postseason overtime

      Two years ago, I loudly supported the idea that sudden-death overtime places too much emphasis on the coin flip.


      Overtime change could cause problems

        While they are at it, they should also review all plays where scoring is an issue, not just when it is ruled a score on the field.

        I think forcing the head coach to throw challenge flags, especially when they are on the road and have less opportunity to review, is the dumbest aspect of pro football. With modern technology and multiple cameras, the replay booth should be looking for errors all the time, stopping play if necessary when there is a question, just like in college football. It doesn't slow the game down appreciably.
        I'm with you. I don't think the coaches should have to help officiate games. This is what we are doing with this challenge nonsense.

          Point, counterpoint: Is automatic replay review for turnovers a good rule change?
