I must have missed something with the rules of OT changing.  I thought it used to be whoever scored first but it seems now both teams have a chance to have the ball back? is this correct?
I am surprised to see the Colts currently (the word is currently haha) ahead of the Pats! Go Colts! LOL

ruff,
Starting in 2012, regular-season overtime will be the same as postseason overtime i.e. modified sudden death.
My understanding is a TD (or safety) on the opening possession will automatically end the game. A FG will not.
In the case of an opening FG, the opposing team must be given the chance to win or tie. Failing to score ends the game.
