If they change the NFL OT rules, I'm for "each team possesses the ball at least once." Both offenses and defenses should see the field regardless of whether a TD is scored.

I don't disagree with the idea of this, but the winner in a game like yesterday will still be "whoever wins the coin toss".

I see what you're saying, but it could open up strategies involving 2-pt conversions. If the Chiefs score first, do they kick the XP or go for two? If they miss the two, Buffalo needs TD+XP to win. If the Chiefs kick the XP, Buffalo can score a TD and go for two to win it (or miss the 2-pt and Chiefs win).

Not sure that this would best way of doing OT, but it would add drama.

I'd rather see the team that ties up the score at the end have to kick off. It's just weird that the Bills had to defend two drives without their offense being able to get on the field.

The issue here is that not all end-of-regulation ties happen on the last play of the game.
