Perennially good teams are because the top players usually don't jump around until the point they lose their jobs.
Its not so bad that the Steelers are good for so many years in a row as long as the reason isn't because they keep buying the top 5% to 10% talent away from other teams.
If the NLF was like the MLB, the New York Giants/Jets, or Chicago Bears would already have added Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Troy Palomalu and Adrian Peterson to their teams a couple years back.
