Bills to Propose Changes to NFL Postseason OT Rules After Playoff Loss to Chiefs

After their memorable playoff loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in January, the Buffalo Bills are hoping to change the NFL overtime system.

Bills general manager Brandon Beane told reporters the team will submit a proposal to the NFL competition committee that would essentially add an extra, short period to the game for overtime in the postseason.

"Similar to in basketball, you play five minutes," Beane said. "Baseball, both teams get the top half and the bottom half (to hit). So a time limit, and I’m talking about postseason only, to have to play it out.
