Just a reminder that the NFL has changed its overtime rules for playoff games.
Starting this weekend, if a team wins the coin toss and then kicks a field goal, the other team gets the ball.
If the game becomes tied again after that next series, play will continue under the current sudden-death rules.
Should the team winning the toss immediately score a touchdown, then the game is over.
