The same thought was probably running through the minds of millions of viewers during the end of Sunday’s overtime thriller between the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks: It’s unfair Peyton Manning didn’t get a chance to have the ball in OT.

Mark Kiszla of The Denver Post echoed the sentiments of those overtime skeptics in a Monday column in The Denver Post.

Unlike the Super Bowl, the only difference Sunday between the Broncos and Seattle was a flip of the coin.
