New OT Rule

They aren't going to make us go back in time and replay the NFC Championship game! If they change the rule, it's no big deal. The way it is now worked FOR us this time and the odds are it would have worked AGAINST us the next time. The way our offense plays, I can deal with it being either way. Personally, I don't think they are going to want to change it and make the games even longer than they are now. It all comes down to the flip of a coin, 50/50. How can you get more fair than that?

It's not even a flip of the coin. Stats say that the team that wins the coin toss, for overtime, only wins about 55% of the time. That's pretty damn even, and the saint-vikings overtime game was the most watched game all year. In my opinion, that means leave the damn rules as they are!
