o The owners heard the complaints of the masses and new overtime rules are coming!
o Yesterday the NFL announced that the league’s owners approved a change to overtime rules that will ensure both teams will receive a possession in overtime.
o The rule change will only apply to the postseason, where the advantage has statistically been more skewed toward the team winning the overtime coin toss than in the regular season.
o If the score remains tied in the postseason after each team has had a possession, the game will be decided in traditional sudden death.
