Packers cornerback Al Harris returned an interception 52 yards for a touchdown in overtime, giving the Packers a 33-27 victory over the Seahawks.
The game is over. The Steelers lost in overtime by a touchdown.
Based on the 2008 and 2009 season, there were 31 games that went into overtime. One ended in a tie, 23 ended with a field goal, and 7 touchdowns(2 defensive, 5 on a drive). So the answer would be, 21% touchdown/ 3% tie, 76% field goal. All based off stats from the seasons mentioned above.
in OT points are worth the same as in regulation time...TD is 6pts
Aaron. Rodgers has ne'er thrown a interception returned for a touchdown in his NFL career. He only has had a fumble returned for a touchdown in the wildcard matchup in overtime at Arizona against the cardinals

The opponent's 25-yard line. That is, the team on offense only needs to gain 25 yards to score a touchdown.
If overtime is sudden death, there would be no extra point. The game would end when the touchdown is scored. If overtime is based on time, and not sudden death, the penalty would be assessed on the kickoff
In a regular-season overtime, each team is awarded two timeouts. In a postseason overtime, each team is awarded three timeouts. This is because in the postseason, overtime is considered the beginning of a new game that will continue through successive quarters until somebody scores. If teams played through two overtime quarters without scoring, they would be given three more timeouts for the third and fourth quarters of overtime, just as they would during regulation time.
That question was asked in many rule changing portions on the offseason, they ARE however thinking of changing the overtime rules to the college type overtime, in that overtime, each team gets a chance to score from the opponents side of the field, if they score, the opponent must score the same amount of points (touchdown or field goal) to still have a chance, but if they don't score, they lose. There's no news on IF they're going to make the change, but the teams in the NFL who have lost in overtime a lot certainly want the change soon.
The PAT (point after touchdown) is required after a team scores in regulation play. The NFL uses points scored as a tie-breaker so the extra point has to be attempted. This is not the case in Sudden Death Overtime. If the game has gone into OT, and each team has had a chance to score, the PAT is not kicked.
Unfortunately we'll never know. But Jeff Fisher is a fairly conservative coach and probably would have just kicked the extra point to put the game into overtime.
