How can NFL players not know that games can end in a tie?

Nobody wins.

Wouldn’t that be one of the main rules that everyone should know about in the NFL? I am pretty sure that is an important rule that players should be aware of. I mean, I am sure the coaches should have relayed that before overtime began. Or maybe the officials reminded them of it, but this baffles me.

It’s no surprise that the players don’t know, but it’s still shocking that they don’t know that.

The league had a tie game last year. Donovan McNabb made it a big story several years ago.

Yet somehow, someway, this very important rule is not known by some players. In a story like this, nobody wins. They’re all losers.
