It makes it more exciting for people who want to see scoring on every possession but there are some of us who remember "real " football. The Ravens or the 85 Bears who were two of the all time great teams probably wouldn't have won a SB if they had the same rules today. If you aren't old enough to remember great defensive teams then I apologize but the NFL has stolen that part of the game.
115 plays.
1 fumble = 1 fumble in 115 plays. So that's worse than the Chiefs-Rams game.
76 pass plays/2 INTs = one INT per 38 passes. Also worse than the Chiefs-Rams game.
Almost 600 yards. This one wins out there.
You also forgot the 3 TDs the defense scored.
And 8 sacks compared to 6.
You can cherry pick stats all you want. Fact is, these were two great offensive teams that went blow for blow and NEEDED their defenses to step up in dire times. And they did.
