    Is OT in the playoffs still broken?

    Or how about a 10 minute ( or even shorter) OT period? Whoever is ahead at the end wins.

    Ten minutes is fair, no reason to make it shorter. Either the college system or an extra timed period are the most fair ways to resolve a tie game in regulation imo. Anything else makes the coin flip too much of an advantage and deciding factor. Let the teams settle it and make the result of the toss much less of a factor. 

    Why all the stubbornness against making it fair and balanced?

    I really think beane and McDermott were expecting big production from harty and sherfield. Unfortunately, they got nothing. 

    Why would they be expecting big production from Harty and Sherfield?

    Two undrafted free agents, one of whom is 5'6" tall, who have shown glimpses of talent but never consistent production.

    If what you are thinking is true and their plan for this past season (or any season) was to get big production from Harty and Sherfield then these guys are clueless...  It's a lousy plan.  If that's their idea of good enough....it's not even close to good enough.

     They should have foreseen years in advance the tight cap coming with Josh on his 2nd contract. They should have drafted a couple/few talented young wrs in the top rounds over those 5 or 6 drafts to develop and have on rookie contracts. Instead they trot out undrafted free agents and hope for the best while constantly building the dline with top picks and expensive fa pickups;  and once again the defense is statistically good but too soft to stop the good qbs when it really matters. It doesn't matter how good your players are when you line up 8 yards off the line on 3rd and 4.  I hear people say it's time for another def line rebuild....

    Next year, it’s our Lombardi.

    The same people who are saying there's no way it's going to happen with McDermott/Beane running things are the same people who thought there's no way we win out to even make the playoffs sitting at 6-6.  Ignore them.

    That was an epic end of the season run to the playoffs, never to be forgotten.  Have you ordered the DVD memorializing it for eternity yet?

    I'm sure it will be talked about for decades. Only with McDs leadership could they have pulled that off....
