 Beginning about 6 : 45 , many members of the public began calling NBC network and affiliate switchboards . Some demanded the game be shown to its conclusion ; others wanted to know if Heidi would start on time . These calls jammed the switchboards , and even blew repeated fuses in them , preventing the executives from getting through to each other to resolve the situation . NBC protocol required an operations order from Connal , to countermand the midweek written orders , but Cline received no call from the increasingly desperate Connal , who was frustrated by the switchboard issues . Without such an order , and not knowing of Goodman 's approval , Cline made the decision that Heidi would start on time .

 For the 1958 season , the durations of timeouts was extended from 60 to 90 seconds and Bell mandated officials call a few TV timeouts during each game — a change which triggered criticism from sportswriters . The 1958 championship game became the first NFL championship game decided in overtime and it was considered to be the greatest football game ever played . The game further increased football 's marketability to television advertising , and the drama associated with overtime was the catalyst . Years later , after witnessing Bell openly crying after the game , Raymond Berry attributed it to Bell 's realization of the impact the game would have on the prevalence of the sport .
