Re: What’s That?

That's a new take on the discussion of NFL parity - I've heard this debunked before but that is a new take. I like it. The NFL likes to taut it's "parity" is because you can look at the revolving door in the playoffs (there's only about a 50-60% of teams in the playoffs make it the following year) and their salary cap and shared revenue plans make it a level playing field.

Here's some more evidence to back your claim: Only 17 of the 32 franchises have won titles, and 11 of those franchises have been multiple winners. 41 Super Bowls and 35 have been won by 11 franchises (SF, DAL, PIT, OAK, WAS, GB, NE, MIA, NYG, DEN, IND). And of the 15 franchises that haven't won a Super Bowl, only 4 have even been to multiple Super Bowls, the cursed Vikings and Bills (0-4 each) and Eagles & Bengals (0-2 each). That leaves 11 franchises - 5 have lost on their only trip and 6 haven't even danced. You're right, that's not parity. And one of those 11 multiple-Super-Bowl-winning franchises is winning it this year and it'll be two of those franchises facing off (DAL, GB or NYG from the NFC versus PIT, IND or most likely NE from the AFC). The rich get richer.
