As fans of a Kansas City team, we are most definitely beneficiaries of a salary cap in the league. We may face the problem of losing players because we can't fit them into our salary cap, but the benefits far outweigh the problems here.

The perception of NFL parity is much greater than the reality. Almost half of the league makes the playoffs each season giving fans false hope, but the super bowl will often have repeating teams.
Then the talent of the bottom half of the league compared to the top is a lot further than most people admit. Fans WANT to believe their team is about to turn the corner.
