NFL: ***2022 NFL Season Thread***

Always thought the NFL overtime rule was bogus, but it's especially bogus in the playoffs. How can you allow a coin toss to dictate who gets to advance?
 
NHL has different OT rules for the playoffs than they do the for regular season. NFL should do the same.
 
I don't think the game can end on a defensive penalty, so you're just allowing the Chiefs to march down the field 15 yards at a time until they get into FG range.
Defensive holding is five yards. If you do it on the last passing play they would have only had enough time for one play. So they would have been on their 45 to mid field area. With one play.
 
I wish the OT rules were each team got a possession and it sucks Allen didn’t get to touch the ball. However, neither team can say they didn’t have several chances, and good ones at that, to end this game. These offenses are too good yes, but dang some of the defensive plays and playcalling were so pathetic in the 4th Qtr. Is what it is I guess.
 
I understand people's gripe with the NFL OT rules, but honestly what system are you going to have that's going to solve that situation? If you had college rules the game may have gone on for hours cause neither D was stopping a damn thing.

Just require they go for 2 from the start.

I'm just talking about this game in particular. Don't get your panties in a bunch.

Edit:Apparently your panties are sufficiently bunched.
 
They make a good point. That endzone kickoff at the end of regulation by Buffalo might have sealed it by giving Mahomes the extra few seconds he had to have.
Yep. was mistake for sure. Still can't give up that many yards in what 10 seconds?!?

Unreal game but both of those defenses stunk down the stretch.
