The Panini America Quality Control Gallery: 2016 Unparalleled Football (Checklist)

Much has been made about the name "Unparalleled Football" since Panini America first announced that the new product was coming in late May. How, exactly, can a product with plenty of parallels carry a name that implies being completely devoid of them? Good question. But 2016 Unparalleled Football, which releases tomorrow in hobby shops across North America, is not unparalleled because it lacks parallels. It's unparalleled because it's quite unlike any other football product on the market.

  1. Hey Tracy, I was wondering will Marshal Yanda being getting a card this year because it would be awsome. He wasn’t included in the All-Pro inserts in Donruss or Unparalleled. He’s been an All-Pro 4 of the last 5 years, would be awsome to see him on a card or 2.
