This is because they have media markets large enough to sustain multiple teams and the necessary fan support. The states are:
New Jersey: Jets and Giants-The New York market is the largest in the country
Texas: Texans and Cowboys-Dallas and Houston are both enormous cities
Florida: Dolphins, Buccaneers, and Jaguars-All three are in large cities
California: 49ers and Raiders-Both teams are successful
Maryland: DC and Baltimore can both support teams
Missouri: Kansas City and St. Louis can as well
These are all big cities in states that happen to have multiple large cities and different markets. The only teams that are struggling financially are the Jaguars and 49ers.
It is not unusual for large markets to field two franchises in a sport. The ideal thing about the New York Giants and the New York Jets is that they play in different conferences.
