This always gets brought up when a high profile game goes into OT and the team that wins the toss wins by kicking a FG on the first drive in OT.

I DO think they should alter the rules, but I DON'T want to anything close to what they have in college. I don't know that I had heard the suggestion of requiring X amount of points until I heard them discussing a "6 point rule" on Mike and Mike this morning. Essentially the same as what dom suggested but without the safety wrinkle.

Sounds like a good idea to me.

I also caught the Mike & Mike, which started this chain of thought. They had 6 as the magic number, but I like the inclusion of a safety - otherwise it's identical.
