Overtime proposal PASSED!

this new rule only effects playoffs. the regular season is the same as usual. play 1 ot then if no points scored it is a tie like u said.

yeah i see. I like the new rule. In regular season a tie is accepted, so that's most likely why the new rule doesnt apply to regular season yet. If they change it to no ties are acceptable, which I think they should, then I think they'll appy the new rule to regular season.

nvm, i looked it up. There is a overtime, but if they still have the same points at the end then it ends in a tie. That Eagle game went in overtime but both teams ended up with the same amount of points at the end of it.

How can you not know that man? I knew that when I was 8. Not trying to be harsh but it's not just you; several people never knew there was such thing as OT and the rules, I guess.

lol at the safety. thats stupid

I thought so at first, but it makes some sense, actually.

Safety would automatically end overtime both now and before. Defensive team scores, offensive team has to give up the ball. Game over.

The idea is to give each team the chance to score. The offense has a chance to score because they are on the field. If the defense forces a safety, in effect, they just scored and the offense failed. While that sort of contradicts the FG thing, safeties aren't nearly as easy to get as FG's (as cheap).

In the case anyone wonders if I was stupid enough to ask if that applied to the overtime rules from before, I was actually just asking if the quotes posted on earlier pages were referring to before or after the new rules.

Also, it's stupid to only pass this for playoff games.

    • Jake, to me, will always hold a special place in my heart.  I really feel like for his era, he deserved way more love than he got, and should’ve had more than his one Pro Bowl.  He was a gamer with an underrated rocket arm. but let me tell you, after his Tommy John surgery, when he came back, I can’t remember who it was against, but it think it was a division game, he threw a ball that was supposed to be a throw away, as I think he was under pressure, and that poo floated forever and died right at the boundary where a defender ran over and picked it off.  One of the worst throws I ever saw.  His arm just wasn’t the same after the injury and surgery.  All that to say, that’s what almost every Bryce throw to the sidelines looks like to me.
    • And again, when watching him in college he had one distinct trait that I feel makes a franchise QB - on those plays when everything breaks down around him, he creates one on his own.  He doesn’t rely on or need everyone else.  That play last night on the final drive where he was getting sacked and threw it to Diggs before his knee hit the ground?  He does similar things all the time.  Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, etc., they all do it.  It’s what made Cam so special. but we picked a guy that’s the opposite of that.  He desperately needs someone else to make a play for him because he can’t.  Even that play yesterday on 4th down to Horn.  That wasn’t a great pass.  The defender was late and came down to make a play in the ball and Bryce threw it high and outside where Horn had to leave his feet and really use strong hands to catch it.  We relied on a 5’9” rookie playing in his first pro game to make THAT catch at THAT time bc of the early turnovers and a not great throw.  Crazy.
    • This thread is dumb. But I do think canales gets too cute with play calling and I don't think he's a good coach
