exactly - that's a formula with results that is a proven fail

whether the td would be enough to hold - id rather have the game decide- not a coin

I dunno. Feels like a psychological deal given the reg season stats and someone’s gotta move on. I’m not to fussed about some arbitrary luck coming into play.

Either way, the game needs to be decided quickly else the winner gets punished next week. Also injuries.

Maybe a one-drive “score or lose” deal evens the field psychologically?

Field goal kickoff while progressively moving the ball further out.
Actually, no. I'm sticking with drinking contest.

how about this:

1. Pick the toughest guy on each team
2. Remove their cups
3. Alternating kick to the nuts until one player cannot continue

play the game until a winner, on a even playing field, not a coin that slants the field - helmets have improved, penalties for hits improved.

injuries happen - can't really defend against that in a contact sport whatever minute it might occur.

can relate with the perspectives though :pint:

You can reduce injuries by reducing the amount of time on field, especially after 60 mins of exhausting physical abuse.

If there’s a tie after regulation it’s not exactly a “win” in OT imo. Not the same as beating someone outright anyway.

Just make em play another 10 mins and then go to field goals. It’s what decides shitloads of games anyway.

Yes - less playing time means less injuries but there is a game to finish and players have agreed to the terms in the form of millions- were not asking for a helmetless OT. Not a football datahead, but I can't see that OT risk being exponentially higher in the scheme of things considering some of the safety related changes, which will continue.
If it's that risky, reduce the length of the quarters for gosh sakes in expectation of occasional OT. Heaven forbid that- less beer sales!

Not sure about what kind of win, tie etc - what you describe in old NASCAR terms is when a driver leads the last lap and wins- never respected that kind of win but he won.

The kicker to kicker thing I thought about- can't see football fans going into the hockey style format. Personally, interesting twist.

The kicker idea is terrible. We have a tie and the tie will now be broken by the person on the team who is least like an actual football player.

The bills were the nfls best defense. It's not a rules problem it's an execution problem. The chiefs beat them. If the chiefs muffed the kick and never got on the field wouId it be unfair because their offense never got a chance? No it would have been game over.
If the bills defense stopped them instead of giving up 120 yds in 4 mins there wouldnt be any talk of rule changes. I wanted the bills but like I said bills gonna bills.

That final drive, the two people you are supposed to cover weren't. You make Mahomes look even more like a create a character and drop the ball after your QB plays pretty much lights drymounting out. Would of loved the Bills to move on but that's the breaks

Also, The Chiefs definitely don't have a top 5 kicker or anything. That missed 50 yarder not included

3 phases of the game (not including coaching) not just offense. The bills botched 2 of them rendering the 3 inconsequential. It's not rocket science. No reason to change rules to accommodate for ineptitude

The issue is that the team that wins the toss wins the game about 15% more often than the team that loses the toss. This difference does not exist in the college game.
