I like the idea of keeping the rules as they are now but with no clock, and the first possession starts at the 50...if they score a TD, the other team gets the ball at the 50...and if they score a TD, then it's sudden death. And you have to go for 2 in OT, no extra points. How many times have we seen when teams got to OT now, aside from Chiefs/Bills...teams cannot score and it's just a puntfest in OT.

Yeah but as we all know in the name of "player safety" neither the players union or the league is going to sign off on a no clock OT.

LMAO @ "player safety". As if...

Fuck it, just flip a coin. Two out of three gets the W; or nominate one player from each team to play each other in Madden NFL, and they have to use their actual teams. Winner gets the W for their team, and no one gets hurt.

HaHa....

My solution: Field goals. If after the ten minute OT, it's still tied, teams take alternating filed goal attempts (22 players on the field, snap and hold, etc.). Start at 45 yards, then 50, then 55, etc. until one team makes it and the other doesn't. If both teams miss the 45, they do it again; a block/missed kick returned for a score ends the game.

I like that idea

I don't mind both teams getting a possession. But if the opening defensive team gives up a FG, the offense has to score a TD. Otherwise they lose.
