but they really don't. In your scenario the team kicks a FG (which isn't a gimme and again brings up good field position on misses from long), the opposing team comes down and gets a TD we're still playing in your scenario. The game would never end. Regular season games can end in a tie you know. No reason to muck it the current system. All aspects of the game are being taken into account. One team doesn't get the chance to score? It's on the Offense and ST, 2/3 of the game. Where's the problem? The other team is using 2/3 as well.

I can possibly see getting rid of the coin toss for OT and perhaps have it predetermined who would start off with the ball. Reason being I think emotions play big in OT. A team just scores and ties it up for OT they're feeling pretty high, if they turn right back around and lose the coin toss it can be deflating. Plus it gives a choice to try and win it or hope his D/ST can come up in OT if they're going to be kicking off to start.

Incorrect. In my scenario, the 2nd team wins when they score the TD. It's not 'win by 5', it's 'first team to score 5'.
