Change the NFL overtime rules so the game is not decided by the coin flip!


Change the NFL overtime rules so the game is not decided by the coin flip!
The Issue
The Chiefs and other teams have abused the “first to score wins” overtime rule in the NFL. To make the game fair, the other team should be allowed a “redemption” drive if the opposing team scores on the first drive of overtime. If they do not score on that redemptiondrive, then the team that scored first would win the football game. This eliminates the fact that one team does not even have a chance to get a touchdown in overtime, and would make the games more competitive and enjoyable to watch for viewers like ourselves. We hope the NFL will support this. By supporting this movement, you can make a long overdue change to the unfair rules of the NFL, and even give your team another shot at the win!
