[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 725201, member: 7261"] The consequence would be....a tie? I get your point, that if they couldn't figure it out in 60 minutes, why give them more time, but that doesn't work in the playoffs, since a winner has to be determined. Sudden death is cool in my book, as long as both team have a shot at the ball first. Otherwise, just like the old rule, pure sudden death favors the team winning a coin flip. Not sure about that. Nothing would change as far as clock management goes (for the conversation) except in a tied game near the end of the 4th quarter. Right now if the game is tied with under a minute to go, do you really see teams taking wild chances at the end of the game? Usually just safe passes to try and get into FG position or a hail mary into the endzone on the last play. I imagine you see an equal number of kneel downs as you see a team risking a turnover. Under what I proposed, the team with the ball in a tied game, is going to play football like it is normally played, knowing time will be added to the clock. No advantage of a coin flip, just the thought of the wind and how it might aid a FG. [/QUOTE]
