The league on Tuesday changed its overtime rules for postseason games. Starting next season, if a team wins the coin toss and then kicks a field goal, the other team gets the ball. If that next series ends with another field goal, play will continue under the current sudden death rules. .' If the team winning the toss immediately scores a touchdown, however, the game is over. Team owners voted 28-4on Tuesday in favorofthe proposal atthe NFL meetings. Minnesota, Buffalo, Cincinnati and Baltimore opposed the change. Passage was helped by commissioner Roger Goodell's support and by aspate of statistics indicating the coin toss had become too prominent in determining OT winners.
