We have yet to see a subsequent possession after a score in overtime. Although the Pittsburgh-Denver game went to OT, Denver scored on 1st play from scrimmage after a touchback on the opening kickoff. There should be an additional note when a subsequent possession does indeed occur. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/128.63.16.82|128.63.16.82]] ([[User talk:128.63.16.82|talk]]) 18:44, 10 January 2012 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Overtime (see also the 2010-2011 playoffs)
Question noted in discussion page for 2010-2011 playoffs about score by DEFENSE.
We have yet to see a subsequent possession after a score in overtime. Although the Pittsburgh-Denver game went to OT, Denver scored on 1st play from scrimmage after a touchback on the opening kickoff. There should be an additional note when a subsequent possession does indeed occur. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.63.16.82 (talk) 18:44, 10 January 2012 (UTC)
Score of two points by the Falcons
Has a team ever scored exactly two points in a playoff game before? If so, how rare is this? A mention in the article might be good. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.130.130.181 (talk) 06:06, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

- The Dallas Cowboys once won a playoff game over the Detroit Lions by a score of 5 - 2. This was back in the 1970s, and why don't you look it up? That was back in the years when the Cowboys team had its "Doomsday Defense" and a quite poor offense. That was back before Roger Staubach finished his duty in the Navy and then joined the Cowboys team as its quarterback. The Cowboys immediately got a lot better on offense because of Staubach and new players in pass receiving, the offensive line, and at running back.
