  1. They've been using the same exact shade of dark navy blue their whole existence. The same shade that the Bears have also used since 2002.
  2. It looks like a 9 with a bite taken out of it. Just terrible. The horns on the sleeves are... fine. It's basically a variation on what the jets are now getting rid of. The lack of red is very disappointing. If the rest of the uniforms were to be color swaps of this design, it would be passable (minus the numbers). But we know Nike is too enamored with their own farts to allow such a cohesive set.
  3. "Delay of game on the kicking team, number... eight-hundred, five-eight-eight, two-three-hundred, Empiiire."
  4. The only other example I can think of is the Patriots, and they wore the updated uniforms for 5 years before changing to their current set. Although it's unclear if that was by rule, or by choice. When the 49ers finally updated their uniforms with the classic wordmark they also went back to 3 stripes. They wore the 2 stripe sleeves for 5 years as well.
  5. I think we can all agree that calling 187C "maroon" is absolutely ridiculous.
  6. According to the team directory in the Colts' 1964 media guide, the darker pre-Lombardi shade was also called Burgundy. Colts 1964 Media Guide
  7. Well dang. That does explain some of the more unusual colors on there. But maroon is a pretty standard uniform color that any manufacturer should have available, so it's crazy that UA doesn't have it. I wonder what the timeline was for UA taking over uniforms for the USFL teams. They probably didn't have enough time to dye new colors before the team needed them. I would hope they can manufacture the proper color by next season, if there is a next season.
  8. What's crazy about the Panthers' colors being wrong is that Under Armour has more accurate colors available in their uniform builder. Maroon and Powderkeg Blue are right there, yet they chose to go with Cardinal and Carolina Blue.
  9. They even creamed their pants.
  10. Those pants are awful and don't match the traditional style jersey at all. I think they were trying to mimic the panther logo, but it just does not work. They look like a high school team that ordered mismatched styles out of the catalog.
  11. What about Oklahoma? They haven't made it past the semifinals in their four trips to the playoffs, and two of them weren't even close. Only one of those times did they lose to the eventual Champions. Notre Dame lost to the eventual champions both times, and the teams that lost in those championships lost by even bigger margins than Notre Dame did. That's not to say Notre Dame shouldn't be criticized for how they performed, as they clearly faceplanted, but there has has been a lot of lopsided football in the playoffs.
  12. I never noticed it before, but apparently they had the logo on the belt buckle until 2011. Crazy that small details like that and the sock wordmarks can slip by.
  13. They were unveiled with both pairs of white pants available.
  14. There was also the Vikings who wore mono purple for 3/4 of a game in 1964, but that wasn't exactly planned. The Broncos wore mono blue twice in the 1997 preseason, beating the eagles by a few months. Weirdly, one of the games was also against the 49ers.
