Theres no perfect solution, NFL salary cap has forced owners to make quality verterans retire, the league is spread thin, and full of rookies, QB especially is poor.

In todays NFL if a QB doesnt show results after 1-2 years, he automatically sucks, at least that is the public perception

not good

^ Well I took it step further, I think Jack's point was people automatically assume that baseball has no parity, and the NFL does

sorry

First of all, you forgot the pistons. Secondly, why does the list of champions dictate whether a league has parity? you could have parity throughout the league but one really great team that wins for a block of time (Read: Bulls champoinship run, where there was league wide parity but really one great player swung 6 rings on one franchise).

There is only one way to judge if there is parity in a league: watch the teams play
