When I think about games like the SuperBowl or FF games, it seems to me that the games are officiated the same way. Players and coaches are used to regular season officiating. Why change philosophy becuase it's a playoff game. Granted, playoff officials will be used, who might have an advanced understanding implementing rules, but I don't think you should change a call because it's a playoff game.

In playoff games I've done, it's been obvious to me that the players and coaches *really* want a game flow, so I am extra sure that I don't hinder that notion.

If crap happens and you don't deal with it, it will re-appear.
