    When an NFL game is tied after overtime, how is this recorded in the team standings? By this I mean as in a percentage of games played, not as in won-tied-lost.

    Question #89462. Asked by gfmk23. (Dec 06 07 12:45 AM)

    		In preseason and regular season games there shall be a maximum of 15 minutes of sudden death with two time outs instead of three. General provisions that apply for the fourth quarter will prevail. Try not attempted if touchdown scored. If there is no score in the 15 minutes, the game shall end in a tie.

    A tie will be counted as 1/2 win when calculating the percentage, ie (total wins + 1/2 total ties) divided by total number of games played give the percentage.
