Another Texans leak.

The only real criticism people seemed to have with the Texans' soon-to-be previous uniforms was that they were "boring" and "generic". So the Texans' response is to make their new home uniform even more boring and generic... but with worse numbers. Fantastic.

These are the worst pant stripes in the NFL. They look like they're wearing flag football flags around their waste

Their what now? 

If you consider the new uniforms to be garbage he's not exactly wrong to use that spelling.

The sock stripes take the home uniform from A to A+. And the blue pants obviously look so much better with the stripes.

Ugh, this is the beginning of the end. The flood gates have been opened. Toothpaste is out of the tube. 

 

This league will be unrecognizable in a few more seasons. 

We can always rely on the Raiders to look like the Raiders. And maybe the Chiefs. The rest of the league is fed.

Praying for a Falcons update.  
 

Pats just need to ditch the Navy pants,

but with Bill gone and new rookie franchise QB, you have to wonder if the Krafts & Mayo will want to go in a completely new direction.

 

I doubt the Rams will change.

 

Most likely candidates for new uniforms:

 

Bills

Commanders (new ownership waiver)

Eagles

Seahawks

Titans

 

Wild Cards:

Dolphins (unlikely)

Giants (unlikely)

Jaguars

Panthers

Ravens (unlikely)

Saints

How are the Bills a likely candidate for new uniforms? They have a very solid look that the team and fans seem very happy with.

Washington isn't just a candidate, they are 100% getting new uniforms, and probably a new name (again).

The Eagles won't change their uniforms while Jeffrey Lurie owns the team, no matter how much everybody wants them to change.

The Jaguars may have started a bad trend with the oversimplified jerseys and pants. I don't remember any team using plain pants for all color options before them, and they are showing the only real option for making all jerseys and pants interchangeable: make all jerseys look like numbers were added to plain shirts and get single color pants.

Technically the Jaguars' pants are not plain. They have those dumb stripes at the back of the knee.

But they often get lost in the socks.

A sizeable portion of people here wanted them to do the Cleveland Spiders look

What he said.

I still don't understand what that has to do with purple, or the Mets.

I wanted Cleveland to go with Spiders as well, and even made a concept. The only new color schemes I remember gaining any traction were Brown/Red and Black/Red. And the original Spiders wore black. So the lament that Cleveland didn't go with purple seems out of left field to me.

Anyway, the Mets look meh. Of course the only real prominent use of purple is for the swoosh because Nike gonna Nike.

Has to be real. Recently read an article where they interviewed a current Broncos player about the uniforms. He literally said, I don't like all the triangles.....

Damn, a player actually criticized a new uniform? I didn't think they were allowed to say anything other than "fire", "clean", or "dope".

Broncos leaked helmet -- Big yikes.

 

There's no way this is what Broncos the are doing. But the triangles match up with the what we saw on the jersey leak.

 

There's no way that's an authentic helmet. The finish looks like store-bought spray paint; there's a giant chip in the back ridge of the helmet; the real logo decal does not have rounded corners like that around the mane; and the blue of the logo and stripe don't match each other, nor the helmet.

This is clearly someone's concept, based on the jersey leak.

So the blue jersey doesn't have a wordmark, but the white and black do? Dammit Lions, you were so close. But hey, at least they still have shoulder numbers.

The next Jets/Browns game is going to look exactly like the 1986 playoffs.

 

Nah, the jets will wear black, and the browns will wear their brown pants, just to spite us.

It's like they took my dad's 70s prom photo and slapped on a cape and pirate hat. Long hair, porn stache, leisure suit, and unbuttoned shirt with a bit of chest showing. It's seriously all I can see.

The Phillies’ City Connect cap has a pattern underneath the brim, so it’s not unprecedented for an on-field City Connect hat to have it.

 

If anything, all of the attention given to the inside of the hat adds credence to it being the official on-field hat, in my opinion.

Huh, so it does. Also noticed that Baltimore's hat has a design too. Well .

I still think the Mets one is just a fashion cap, as the other one in the picture with a jersey makes more sense.

Are those "pinstripes" actually train tracks? This is definitely more legit looking than the other leak.

That's what New Era is turning into...I always buy a 5950 to go to a new stadium. Went to Texas last season for the first time, went to around twenty Lids, five Rally House from California to Arlington and ended up finding the only decent one at the stadium after seeing about 40 of my size at the other stores that had wrong sizing, awful stitching or way off-center brim, batterman or front logo... New Era definitely feels like a cheap-ass gas station brand these days.

That's what New Era has been for as long as I can remember. It's absurd that they are so dominant while always having such a wildly inconsistent product. I have never had a good experience with New Era hats, and avoid them if possible. All of my favorite hats are either Zephyr, 47 Brand, or Top of The World. I really wish one of them could get the on-field contract, but that's never going to happen.

The Tigers one also has an “on-field headwear“ sticker, which tells me that’s the cap that goes with the jersey. Unfortunately.

The Mets hat with the bridge has the same sticker. But it's pretty easy to move a sticker from one hat to another. They conveniently did not get the actual tag in frame for either hat. The designs on the under-brim are a dead giveaway that those are CC fashion caps. On-field hats have a black under-brim, just like the regular hats. The Tigers' on-field hat could be very similar, but that one's not it.

I’d imagine Washington will get a gold helmet at some point. Whether its this season or next.

They'll be getting entirely new uniforms (and probably a name) before they add another helmet. And they couldn't do it for the upcoming season anyways, as the rule change doesn't go league-wide until 2025.

Another problem is the game started at 9:30 last night. I learned about UConn's victory on my phone this morning when I woke up as I was fast asleep before the second half. I say this every year, but you cannot convince me that starting the national championship game after 9 on the east coast is helpful for ratings. 

It also doesn't help that it was on TBS. Why are championships relegated to cable, late on a Monday night? Who the hell asked for that? The Women's championship game was on broadcast TV, at 3pm on a Sunday. That makes so much more sense, and people actually tuned in to watch the whole game. They should either put both games on Sunday, or shift them each back a day, having Women's on Saturday, and Men's on Sunday. And drop the TBS championship nonsense. But that would be too convenient, so of course they won't do that.

The NCAA tournament actually gives me some pause when it comes to expanding the football playoff. We have this huge 64 team tournament where the opening round is usually the top seeds straight thumping the lower seeds, and whenever a lower seed does get through a game or two, they never actually win. The winners are always the same few teams. UConn/Duke/UNC/Whoever has the biggest name recruit/whoever has the top “one and done” coach. Wash, rinse, repeat. It just makes the entire thing feel so bloated and wasteful.  I’m kind of starting to wonder if we’re just going to get the same with football. 
 

I’ve never really liked the tournament, but I basically checked out when Butler (who is the closest we’ve gotten to a small school winning in SO long) lost two title games to two of the most common champions you could possibly find. 

Football has already been at that point for a long time, just without the expanded field. I like expanding to 12, as I'd rather there be a slim chance of an outside team winning than no chance  at all. However, the talk of going to 16 is on the verge of being too much. The basketball tournament is incredibly bloated, and while it makes for entertaining early upsets, it's ultimately meaningless.

Is it possible for the NFL to reject a new design based on feedback from fans immediately after the reveal? I remember the 49ers in 1991 tried to release a new design for the helmets, and the reaction was so negative that the design was scrapped. While that was just the helmets, I would think Nike or the NFL saves the templates somewhere.

They've already produced tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of jerseys. Unless the Broncos want to eat a crap ton of costs, there's no going back. Helmets might be a different story. From my experience buying mini helmets, helmet merch has probably not been produced yet.

The Rockies purple jersey looks more like an electric blue or something.  It’s really an odd hue this year.  

 

Compare the jersey with the purple in the scorebug.  
 

 

 

 

The hats and jerseys are clearly different shades.

The jerseys look more like the old shade, and the hats are what the current purple is supposed to be.

They don't need black on the regular uniforms or logo, as black would be considered a historical color for them.

Is this a championship game thing? Seems a lot of people are bewildered by the choice but mainly because Iowa is known for similar color gold and black.

 

edit: technically it is the color of the gamecock’s beak and legs, I’d think

Someone at Under Armour thought they were making uniforms for the other USC.

The left guard for the Panthers is just awful. That game was much closer than it had any right to be though. Jake Bates is still the star of the team.
