NFL overtime rule

[Danzig]

i'm not personally saying that would be the best way....i'm just saying that the current system isn't the only way to handle it. i think by suggesting various ideas, a workable solution could be reached-maybe i'm wrong. of course, it doesn't matter anyway, unless the nfl wants a change.
to be honest, and i think i said this before, i don't see why regular season games can't end in a tie. kick in OT in the postseason. but then, i don't understand why baseball doesn't do the same thing, rather than 13-15 inning marathons, especially considering the amount of games they play.

Excuse me Mr. McNabb, oops! I mean Zig, NFL regular season game CAN end in a tie... after a 15 minute sudden death overtime.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the rule, college overtimes are very silly, yet I will admit they are exciting.

yes, i know they can. my question is, why play an extra quarter if it can end in a tie anyway? the players are all beat to hell by seasons' end anyway, i doubt they'd cry over losing an extra quarter in a regular season game.
