Which leads me to my next point... head coaching positions in the NFL are more secure when you lose if you play to not lose rather than if you play to win.

Yep, that seems to be the case.  The whole world expected McCarthy to play for OT...so that's exactly what he did.  Doesn't matter that the stats show his changes were actually better going for two.  Play it conservative, and the pundits chalk the loss to bad luck instead of a coaching blunder.

Regular season. No overtime. Be OK with ties.

Playoffs. Play full quarters. No sudden death.

I've apparently gone full soccer.

75 minutes is a lot of football. I wouldn't mind it as a fan but I think you are putting players at risk of injury

It also increases the chances that the game is still tied after the extra 15.

Personally, I like the sudden death format.
