Has Parity Really Worked In The NFL?

[CrazyCanuck]

As for the parity, I think it's a good thing overall, although I do kind of miss the olden days. When a team like Arizona went into SF to play the Niners, their chances of winning the game were practically nil. If they didn't get totally blown out it was a minor miracle. Now it's more of a "any given sunday" mentality.

I think they've reached a good medium. You still have a few dynasty-like teams, but for everyone else each year brings promise.
