The fact the NFL allows ties is straight up Un-American. I don’t care how long it takes. There should always be a winner and a loser in American Football.

The really stupid part is that if ties are ok, why have overtime at all? It seems kind of lazy to have one OT and just be like “alright frick it we tried”.

Yes in the Super Bowl

In the regular season ties are fine. They’re not a win or a loss

In the playoffs ties are fine. Have the home team advance to the next round whenever that happens. That way both teams beforehand know what they need to do

That leaves one game a year where overtime is a possibility. At that point do it like college overtime which is fairer to both teams than pro overtime. If an overtime game happens it’ll be so rare we’ll think it’s automatically awesome

agreed. Id like to see the kickers go back and forth. Starting at the 25 yard line sounds good. Kickers rotating who goes first and moving back 5 yards each round until one kicker makes/one kicker misses in a certain round.

Edit: After the first OT. Not directly after regulation.
