The great thing about the NFL: 5 teams that didn't make the playoffs last season are in (Raiders, Dolphins, Cowboys, Falcons, Giants and maybe Lions). The 2 teams that were in the Super Bowl last year didn't even make the playoffs this year. Every year is a new adventure. It's not the same recycled bull like the NBA where only 2-3 teams have a chance to win it all every year.
Please. I'll believe the "every year is a new adventure" line when the day comes that you can't pencil the Patriots, Steelers and Packers into the playoffs every year. As it stands now, the Patriots are pretty much champions again already and it's just a matter of playing out the string. The NFL is no better parity-wise than the NBA, their marketing department is just good at making people think otherwise.
CN, that is simply not true. In the past 10 seasons, 9 different teams have won the Super Bowl. That is the definition of parity. Meanwhile, the NBA is all set for a Cavs-Warriors Finals for a 3rd straight season with almost 100% certainty.

The vast majority of Super Bowls have been won by the same old handful of franchises: the Steelers, the Cowboys, the Patriots, the Niners, the Broncos, the Packers, the Giants, the Raiders and the Redskins. That's nine teams in a 32-team league. Parity, my ass.
Try being an AFC fan for the past decade. It's pretty much hopeless for any upstart team to ever go far in the playoffs with the Steelers, Pats, Colts, Broncos and Ravens always standing in the way. The NFC does seem to be a little more balanced, tbh.
You still just listed 5 AFC teams. As opposed to literally 2 teams in the entire Eastern Conference that could possibly win the le in the past 6 years now, and only when that team had LeBron.
NFL also shows you need strong ownership/coaching to be a perennial contender, while all that's needed in the NBA is blind luck based on the whims of one superstar.
CN is just butthurt that the chargers never win so he throws his arms up and says the league is bull and SD isn't on the lucky list of teams that actually win
I never said the league is "bull " nor am I butthurt about anything. The Chargers are a dumpster fire of a franchise and that wouldn't change even if the big dogs of the AFC were all contracted tomorrow. Mono is right that ownership matters a lot in the NFL. The Spanoses are still bigger obstacles to the Chargers' success than any other team.
All I'm saying is that based on the actual on-field results throughout history, the amount of parity in the league has been overhyped for marketing purposes. "Any given Sunday" sounds good as a slogan, but the results don't back it up.
It's re ed to expect every year to be a lottery. Rosters have constants. But look at the turnover of playoff teams every year. Look at superbowl winners in the past decade.
Lol thinking your team of choice impacts your credibility
to be salty? weeeeeeeeell..
You're Philo-ing again. I don't expect a "lottery." It just would be nice if one of the league's two conferences wouldn't have been boring, predictable and stagnant for over a decade now.
The pats have GOAT level qb and coach. That's not a league parity issue. Where were you complaining about parity when the chargers owned the afc-w
The Raiders sucked ass for over a decade. I didn't whine and blame a lack of league parity for it
They have Joe Gibbs and prime Joe Montana now?![]()
is that so...
Pretty glad this abortion level season is coming to an end.
Does no one think, "Pat McGroin", when they hear the name?
the raiders gave him a 2nd round tender this past offseason and paid him 2.5 million as a result. time to see what he's got
Carr for Bortles straight up right now
this thread
I like how he chose to take the logos off for Cleveland and Carolina, because nobody cares about those teams
