This stat may help the case being made to change the NFL's overtime rules 🤨
, those criticisms once again started the conversation to change them. One staggering statistic illuminates what appears to be a major advantage in the outcome of a coin flip.
According to the current overtime rules, a coin flip decides who gets the ball to start the extra period, and sudden death will not be enforced unless the team that gets the ball first scores a touchdown on the opening drive. Per NFL research, teams who won the coin toss have won 10 of the 11 playoff games since these rules have been enforced.
The only playoff team to lose after winning the overtime coin toss is the Saints, falling to the Rams in 2018. Of those 10 games won by the team that won the coin toss, seven of those squads won via a walk-off touchdown on the opening drive.
