[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 708444, member: 7277"] 1. I highlighted what I think would be the major problems with this one on the last post of the previous page of this thread. To sum it up, ties will become much more commonplace, likely more exhaustion and injuries over the course of a season. 2. So Team A receives in OT, goes down and score a TD. Team B receives, goes down and scores a TD. Now in sudden death, Team A calmly goes 40 yards down field and kicks a FG to win it. How is that any better than now? 3. I kind of like it better than 1 and 2, (though you wouldn't need to reset the game clock to 15:00, there would be no need for a game clock at all.) I doubt I'd pick it over what we have now, though. And since there's no extension of the first half, there would definitely be some complaints about what is essentially just extending the second half. Part of the enjoyment of ends of close games is the race against the clock and time management late in the 4th, not sure that something as extreme as essentially removing that from the equation is the answer.
