Before the rule change only 30 something % of teams won the game on the first drive. How can you get anymore fair than that?
Not exactly the smartest question I've ever heard, but....

That obviously proves teams werent winning games because of the coin toss.

Doing anything other than going back to true sudden death would be stupid.

The point of sudden death is to end the game quickly and also make it exciting.

...otherwise, you're reading my mind. Sudden death is the shite--always was, always will be. The anti-sudden-death rhetoric is mostly "A coin toss shouldn't decide the game," so I took the coin toss out of overtime.

The point should be frick off if you dont like sudden death, thats the way its done in the nfl. The stats do not correlate to the coin toss being an advantage.

but you didn't get rid of it. you just moved it.
the toss of a coin still determined who got the ball first.
