And there's always "that guy" who thinks his opinion is the only one that is right and then gives crap to another person with a different one.

Dude, there a few people around here who think their opinion is the only one that matters, and I've dealt with all of them before. You know nothing about me or how I post if you think I'm one of them.

I don't have a problem if people want to keep the rules as they are, though I might disagree with them. It's the reasoning I have a problem with. I'll reiterate my point... It's one thing to say that the rules should stay the same because the games are long enough (though I don't consider that much of a reason), but it makes zero sense to say that if you don't stop the other team from scoring you don't deserve to win. Is it not a TEAM game? The offense gets no chance to respond?

I'm not making excuses for teams, because as long as these are the rules, you deal with it. But when they changed the rule the first time, it would have made a lot more sense to give each team a possession, instead of making it conditional upon scoring a touchdown or field goal.

EVERY OTHER SPORT that I can possibly think of has overtime rules that guarantee each team an equal chance. When I feel strongly enough that people are wrong about something, I will make it known. Don't be a hypocrite and act like you aren't the same way.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
