After the stunning end of the Green Bay Packers v Arizona Cardinals play-off game, our US sports reporter asks the question: should the NFL change its play-off rules? If you watched the Green Bay v Arizona game with me on Saturday night, you would have been deafened by the shriek as Aaron Rodgers threw not one, but two unbelievable Hail Marys to take the Packers to overtime. They lost the coin toss, and one kick-off return and two Larry Fitzgerald receptions later, they were out of the play-offs. And while Arizona celebrated, a lot of people began asking the question again: shouldnt we revisit the NFLs overtime rules? Thats because Green Bay didnt get a chance to possess the ball and level the game, because in the rules, if you get the ball and score a touchdown the game is over. Highlights from the NFC divisional playoff game between the Cardinals and the Packers But this isnt a rule thats been long established in the NFL. This rule began in 2010 after the NFLs owners decided that the old rule - which said the team who scored a field goal would end the game - wasnt great, opting instead for the if you score a field goal the game continues, if you score a touchdown the game is over rule.Green Bays Clay Matthews, understandably, has said that the NFL should opt for college footballs overtime rules which are not only much easier to comprehend but also fairer. College footballs overtime rules are: both teams start on the oppositions 25-yard line, and they have to match each others scores. In other words, both teams get the chance to play. CBSSports John Breech has pointed out that this would eliminate the coin flip issue, which is no bad thing.Sportswriter Jason Kirk added: What kept the game from ascending to an even higher level was the fact that Aaron Rodgers never got to touch the football in overtime, thanks to sudden death rules. He added: Youd like to watch Aaron Rodgers v Larry Fitzgerald in overtime, wouldnt you? Aaron Rodgers threw a late touchdown pass but the current rules didnt allow him to touch the ball during overtime Kirk and Breechs comments have been added to by NBCs Mike Florio who said: Spare me the if you want to win the game, stop them nonsense.The question of whether a team goes to the next level of the postseason shouldnt hinge, ultimately, on the outcome of a coin toss. Both teams should have a chance to possess the ball, and the kicking team should have a chance to match any score mustered, field goal or touchdown, by the team that receives the kick-off.Florio has pointed out that the NFLs change should be just for the play-offs but I dont quite agree. I think it should be for the whole season. Everybody wins: the viewers, the TV guys, and the fans. A college game between Arizona State Sun Devils v Oregon Ducks demonstrated how different rules could be beneficial Other sports have been happy to look at each others extra-times and get in sync. In the NBA and college basketball, both sports play five-minute overtime rules, and baseball gives both batting sides a chance to score a run or two in overtime. Would it be such a horrible thing if that happened for the NFL and college football?Right now, there doesnt seem to be a lot of love for the current ruling, but our thought is this: the longer there are no changes, the bigger dissatisfaction there will be among fans, the media and, yes, the owners. The NFL has the chance to morph a little. If they dont want to start both teams on the oppositions 25-yard line, then start on the 30-yard line. Or let the other side receive a kick-off if the other team scores a touchdown. As long as both sides get the chance to match-the-score that would be OK.And if you dont believe me about how exciting college football overtime is, I would beg you to watch the Arizona State v Oregon triple overtime game from earlier this year. Then close your eyes and think how awesome would that kind of overtime be in this years Super Bowl? Also See: NFL Video Rookies guide NFL on Sky Sports Pundits Austin Watson Jersey .
