DCarp1231 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Would it ever actually occur to Nike to go ahead and design color and white uniforms for all teams next year? Since some teams are essentially forced to wear their normal away uniforms in a color rush game, it's almost like a give up of "color rush" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish they'd have enough time to see the schedule, and then design a perfect match up color wise each week. To me the Chargers/Broncos was the best one yet and I'd love to see something just as vibrant each Thursday. I mean most of these just look like another game. If it's going to be "color rush" let's make it different. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Looking at some of the Falcons in pregame, it appears some have the all white socks. However, many are still wearing the traditional half black, half white socks they normally use with the away uniform. Curious to see what it looks like at kickoff.

Germanshepherd Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Even the broadcasters are ragging on these Color Rush unis, rightfully complaining that it's tricky to read the numbers. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynasty Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 It's probably been mentioned before, but I'll say it anyway... Having teams wear white really defeats the purpose of "Color Rush". It's suppose to be one team wearing one of their primary colors against the other team in one of their primary colors. If they're going to have contrasting (or colorblind) issues, then this experiment of theirs was bound to be a failure from the beginning. The one-helmet rule also ruins the whole appeal of this; it's suppose to be all one color against one color. Make the helmets the same color as the rest of the uniform.

I feel like if this were actually brought back, a lot of people would complain that it looks too much like the Colts, and people would want there to be more design to it. This uniform is fairly plain compared to their other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The numbers are just flat hard to read. I've been saying for three years now that all the Bucs need to do to make their new uniforms palatable is change the number font to something more readable and maybe pirate-ish, fix the pant stripe to something more traditional, and put the pirate ship logo on both sleeves. Lights Out did a pretty decent concept a few years back that (other than the missing sleeve patches) pretty much sums up my wishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted November 4, 2016 Share Posted November 4, 2016 Nike needs to put more thought into Color Rush. We should never have to see a white uniform. It's known that Thursday Nights are only ever inter-divisional games with the rare exception of two of the teams that played on the prior Thanksgiving Thursday. So pick one color for each team in each division that contrasts with all others and stick with it. Take the NFC South for instance: Panthers are carolina blue. Saints are all gold. Falcons are all black. Bucs are all red. Every team had a color and they all provide enough contrast for one another no matter who the opponent is. The rest of the league: Pats: Silver Jets: Green Bills: Blue Dolphins: Aqua Steelers: black Bengals: orange Ravens: purple Browns: brown Colts: blue Titans: columbia blue Texans: red Jags: gold Broncos: navy Chargers: yellow Raiders: silver Chiefs: red Giants: blue Eagles: kelly green Cowboys: silver Redskins: burgundy Lions: honolulu blue Vikings: purple Bears: orange Packers: green 49ers: gold Rams: royal blue Cardinals: red Seahawks: gray (or neon green if you dont care about the color blind vs the Cards) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New York, Houston, Green Bay and Atlanta have all (basically) just worn their away uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spent 4 years broadcasting college games on the radio.. That's the reason you don't hear the broadcasters complaining about their normal jerseys being hard to read (just ugly as Hell).. The white alarm clock numbers are MUCH easier to read than the pewter ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
