It's exciting like a 10-9 hockey game. A nice novelty thing but would get old watching teams just go up and down the field without opposition. Poor defense in the NFL is becoming a big problem and it's partially rules and partially the fact that defensive players aren't very good at fundamentals anymore;

No doubt, offensive explosions are crowd-pleasers. But for those who love defense, much of the 2018 season has been hard to watch. “So disgusted by defenses in the league I can’t stand it,” ESPN analyst Louis Riddick, who played under Belichick in Cleveland, tweeted during the game. And grumbled one longtime defensive coach, “Some of the worst football I’ve ever seen.” Sentiments that pair perfectly with the look on Belichick’s face.
