There have been very few ties in the NFL in recent history, something less than 1%.

The NHL had 14% of their games tied in 2003

RECENT TIE-GAME STATISTICS
National Hockey League -- Fourteen per cent of all NHL regular-season games in the 2003-04 regular season ended in a tie (170 games of 1,230).
I'm not sure the ties are much of an issue for the NFL.
