Yeah, I"m all for expanding the rosters.... I think it will be a necessity if they move to the 18 game schedule. Not quite sure how it would effect payroll but it seems the owners would make a little more money so they could pay more players. I could see the NFL becoming similar to the NBA where the "B" Team gets significant minutes every game.... More and more rotations with better roster depth to keep everyone fresh over an 18 game season...
As far as OT, I think Winston means that each team gets one possession to do something whether it's a kickoff, ensuing kickoff, turnover, etc. For example, if team A gets the ball to start OT (via kickoff) and fumbles it away, then team B has a chance to win the game on their possession. Since team A blew their possession, they have to keep team B from scoring. Many variations could happen: Team A gets a FG and kicks off to team B, team B scores a TD and wins the game, etc, etc. If after each team has their one possession and it is still tied, then it goes to sudden death thus, not dragging out the game.... I kinda like that.....
