I like this better than the first to 6 points rule.
Only difference really is, that say team A gets a FG on its first possession, then team B gets the ball they HAVE to score a FG to keep it going on that possession.

I find it odd that the Vikings voted against it.
This rule is way too weird anyways, just do college rules and make them start at midfield.

I agree with this except I think they should start with the kick off. But i'm happy with this.
When a team gets to the 30-20 yard line, do you think they will just run the ball and kick the field goal, or are they gonna go for the TD?... I like it.

They should change it for the regular season too.

This is way better than how it was.
Nobody wants the outcome of a game to hinge on a coin toss. The coin toss winning team has too much of an advantage and this largely eliminates that advantage.
Good call NFL!

I would bet that if this change is well received and we have so good playoff finishes because of it, it will be implemented in the future.
