So…the coin toss doesn’t decide the game.

See how that works? The Bengals played defense, and now they have a chance to win.
That’s why all that chatter last week was so stupid.

You do realize coin toss winners are 10-1.

all you have to do is keep them out of the endzone, and you get your chance. It’s called football.
Bengals played some defense. Bengals won the game. That’s how football works.

Not so easy to stop an elite nfl offense. The OT rules do leave too much to chance with a coin toss.

Realize it simply isn’t fair!! Why argue a moot point, it’s an idiotic OT and embarrassment to football.
Question for you : is it fair for only 1 defense to have to play in OT like last week and so many other times ??? Why would the Chiefs not also need to play defense ?? Yes playing defense and stopping opponent from scoring TD sounds nice and easy but momentum says otherwise.
Fair is fair and NFL OT is not fair

If you can’t kick off and keep your opponent out of the endzone on a single possession…too bad.
Hang on…I’m about to watch tonight’s cointoss losers hoist a trophy. They have a defense.

If you like unfair competition ?
It’s simply dumb in terms of competitive spirit. Coin toss won KC the game last week because I assure you Buffalo wins game if they won coin toss. See how that works ??? Unfair no matter the perspective

It matter for 60 minutes. Maybe you need to learn how competition works since you obviously think it’s ok to be unfair. Thumbs down, thanks for that simply because you don’t agree. Should extra innings in baseball end when a team scores in top of the inning ?? It’s equivalent in terms of competitive spirit, however It’s fair to each team and not pure luck coin toss garbage

Then it would definitely be over the moment you lost the cointoss. But that’s not how competitors do it. Just ask the Bengals.

It’s the rule, no matter if it’s right or not. My guess is it gets changed because it simply isn’t based in competitive fairness. Today the Bengals got it done, good for them. Last week Buffalo did not and Josh Allen and the offense sent home for doing nothing wrong, which is not good for any competition. Yea his defense let him down however KC defense wasn’t given chance to let Mahommes and KC offense down.
You think the rule is ok, there are many who do not agree. We will agree to disagree ?. When rule is changed just be thankful it’s become a fair OT

For a shot at the Super Bowl, i would prefer playing a quarter, a half, etc. until one was ahead after a regulated time... Make the time 10, 15, minutes, but play to a determined time.

Both teams had a chance, and the team that was playing better won the game. Works for me!

10 and 2 is all we should be focused on.

As Parcells famously said, you are with your record is. Maybe the Bengals pulled it off tonight, but it’s still 10 and 2 in postseason when the winner of the coin flip wins the game.

That’s not a very large sample size.

I’ll bet after 100 games, it’s a little more even.
And the Bengals say you can take your stat and shove it. They played a few downs of defense, and look what happened. Football.

I don’t remember where I read it but the team that wins the toss wins OT 52.7% of the time. That doesn’t mean that they win in on the first possession. Players Union will never go for longer playing time without getting something in return.
