in 2012, team that starts first has a 60-51-7 record after today. But four of the six playoff games that have gone to OT under new rules ended with a TD on first possessions." (I'm combining two tweets by the author.)

QBs who didn't get on the field in the playoffs in OT include the following:

Aaron Rodgers doesn't see the ball in 2014 (NFC title game debacle).
Aaron Rodgers doesn't see the ball in 2015 (nobody covers Fitzgerald).
Matt Ryan doesn't see the ball in 2016 (Falcons blow 28-3 lead).
Patrick Mahomes doesn't see the ball in 2018 (Edelman and Burkhead).
