Field goal after winning the toss and possessing the ball doesn't win the game.

I didn't check the date though. But it explains the multiple scenarios well.

But the rules came about during last year's playoffs but wasn't used and the fans didn't realize some of absurdities this rule change could create.

This year's playoffs could throw a spanner on these rules.

[quote=and a touchdown at any time wins the game -- period. [/quote]

I guess they don't want to look like they're copying college ball rules.
