Did anyone else realize that the only 4 teams that used the new nike mach speed template in the regular season are the 4 teams that were in the playoffs. Maybe this is some proof that Nike can win you some football games

They are also four consistently top-tier teams.

Any number of reasons. The Vikings' uniforms are very neo-classical. The team probably had a very clear idea of what they wanted. It's entirely possible that the Seahawks gave Nike free reign. It's not as if each NFL team's relationship with Nike is the same. The fact that the Raiders, Packers, Falcons, and Panthers have elected to keep the older templates and materials is proof positive of that.

The Seahawks, like the University of Oregon, are right in Nike's backyard. There was a lot of talk about Nike making the Seahawks the "Oregon of the NFL." If there's any truth to that it would mean that Nike had more of a free reign. Which would allow them to put little things like a design element that highlights their logo into the larger package.

There's also the fact that the Seahawks' new uniforms were the first redesign they did after getting the contract. So it's the one they'd want to make the biggest splash with re: their own branding.

I never thought of the new Vikings uniforms of being neo-classical, but now that I think of it, they are.

Also, the Patriots chose to stick with the Reebok-era uniforms

Actually Adidas gave the Patriots their current look
