This is the matchup that started the color blind contrast debate, so Bills should be in all white and Jets will be in kelly green with chrome helmet decals. 3 teams are wearing color alts, I think at least 2 have already been announced. Cowboys are the only team on the schedule wearing white at home, so Chiefs are wearing color on the road. There's either an anomaly or a typo in the designation guide. Dolphins and Raiders are both scheduled to wear color jerseys on SNF. At first I thought maybe Dolphins were going orange and Raiders in black which might be more contrast than orange vs. white. But the Dolphins announced earlier they are wearing aqua. So I'm not sure what to make of it, but I'm leaning towards just a typo and Raiders will be in white. Would the dolphins just wear all aqua then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day i hope the nfl will do away with the one helmet rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wore them because of alumni weekend. They've done it every year since unveiling these in 2012. It just so happens the alumni weekend was planned for the home game against the Cowboys.

Not the same shell color but COULD look right in perfect lighting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely not your standard gray facemask like the Cowboys or Giants wear for sure though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsFan12 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Anyone else notice how the Bengals have had 4 home games and worn 4 different uniforms in those games, but none of them have been their regular black on white home uniform? And they're next home game isn't til Week 12 against the Browns, when they'll be in orange again... I also don't understand why anyone would assume they'll wear black socks this week when they haven't worn that combo since 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least this time it's a Color Rash tweak, so maybe I won't hand-wring too much. Yeah - over blown reaction, but it bugs me. It's where I sit.

The white facemask is so much better than the grey. Just might have came to a football general rule for me. Facemasks should match the shell colour.

tohasbo Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Could be the lighting there but again I could be wrong as well. That helmet decal, though, is what is used for Color Rash for Gang Green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, since unveiling their current set I've always wished the Bills went with a blue face mask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
