NFL planning big changes in overtime rules

The National Football League (NFL) is thinking to bring major changes in the overtime rules starting next season. The changes, however, will be done only in regular season and not in post season. These supposed changes will be regarding the possession of the ball for the team that loses the toss.

If NFL executive vice president Troy Vincent's words are to be believed, then the league's Competition Committee is thinking about giving possession to both teams if a regular season goes in overtime—just like the playoff games.

As of now, there is a coin toss between the teams if the game goes in OT and the winning team gets possession. If they manage to score on their first drive, they win the game—not even giving a chance to the second team.
