Vikings Undecided On Overtime Rule Change Proposal

The NFL's looming debate on overtime rules has been associated most frequently with Minnesota, which lost the NFC Championship Game on New Orleans' first-possession field goal earlier this year. The proposed rule change would have given the Vikings an overtime possession after Garrett Hartley's 40-yard field goal; if enacted, teams would have to score a touchdown in order to win on the opening possession of overtime. But as of Sunday evening, coach Brad Childress said team officials are still discussing their vote and the final decision will be made by owner Zygi Wilf. "Part of me doesn't want to screw around with what's been [the practice]," Childress said. "And part of me says, let's give it a swing."

Especially after the Vikings didn't get the ball in OT of the NFC Championship Game, I would say change the OT rule if I were the Vikings.
