As it is, however, fewer than half the teams that win the toss win on the first possession — about 40% historically and closer to 30% last season. And 20 of last season's 26 overtime games saw both teams have at least one possession, compared with 16 of 25 in 2002.

Link to USA Today article It's from 2004, I know. I wish I had more time to go to wiki and check out since '04 the stats since then, or even get another source. But, I've been and am under the impression that those numbers are pretty accurate. Ok, I'm out for the night, hopefully someone can do some leg work for me. Enjoy your friday nights.
