My idea to solve NFL tie's

[barrysloate]

The Browns are in overtime again, for the fourth time this season. Unbelievable!

I agree with getting rid of kickers and punters. There is nothing less exciting than someone trying a last minute field goal.

I guess I'm the first to say so, but I love the OP's idea. I find long field goals to be exciting, and it would be cool to see the contest go on, once both kickers exceeded the 50 yard mark. I think the record long field goal is still 63 yards, but someone may have broken that record. I bet the existing record would be broken if the NFL implemented this plan.

They will never actually do it, but I do love the idea. To me, the 59 yarder that beat the Browns, and the 63 yarder by Carolina (both to win their respective games) were exciting and amazing finishes.
