Explaining NFL OT Rules

By Tangotiger, 10:14 AM

I think the ref did a good job of explaining the OT rules.  I’m not sure if there’s a great way of explaining it.  He was pretty clear, and didn’t give too much information in each sentence.  He wasn’t terse, and he wasn’t verbose.  I liked it.

What wasn’t clear is what happens on a safety on the initial drive (reverse?).  Presumably, it should end the game, but maybe there is an exception there as well?
