Re: How would you change the overtime rules?

I have an idea, let the team captains rochambeau for the ball (South Park Style). The Home team captain gets to go first. Neither Captain can wear a cup. The team of the last man standing gets the ball.

To make it more interesting the QB must be the team captain for the rochambeau. The back up QB for each team has to QB during OT play while the starters are escorted back to the locker room.

I wouldn't change it. If your defense isn't that good, well tough. Frankin Head isn't God. He's good but we shouldn't change the rules for him.

The best way IMO is to just play out the OT till the end. Who ever has the most points wins. This insures both teams have equal play according to there ability and endurance.
that is a great idea play the whole 15 minutes like basketball in ot

Now there is a good idea. Imagine the ratings for an overtime game...

Shameless self-promotion. It is what it is.

Not a bad idea. Imagine watching the cold weather games in high def? Wow. I think you're on to something.

Re: How would you change the overtime rules?

I would just play a 15 minute overtime without sudden death. Regular season can have ties, playoffs keep having 15 minute periods until somebody wins. The college thing is okay, but to me, one turnover under that system is as fluky as losing the toss.

In my original post that was my suggestion, though I can realize due to tiring and injuries why they wouldn't do that.
