  1. I would love that, but sheesh, they only wore green once in a 17-game season, so I am not betting on it.
  2. Think they mean last season when they wore the more traditional looking white uniform as opposed to bone
  3. I'm actually shocked that not a single Braves fan in the comments of that blog seemed to realize the cream jerseys were already tossed, and that the writer said the throwbacks were from the 50s.
  4. The silliest part about the Cowboys is that there were numerous times since the 60s where they've tweaked the uniforms, so the uniform they wear to this day is much more a representation of cobbling together odd changes over the years than anything else. There's such an easy fix for them -- go back to the original number font and shade of blue, standardize the silver, make the sleeve stripes like Kansas State's with grey borders instead of black. Every person on these boards would approve while every casual an likely wouldn't even notice.
  5. So, I think I have to admit I can tolerate the Eagles wearing white socks instead of black. As much as it runs counter to my general feelings towards this fad, because the Eagles logo and helmet design is so white-heavy, the white socks kind of work. Not as good as the normal attire, but it’s just not bothering me like it has with other teams
  6. I don't hate this idea, as the black over teal and white over teal combos are my favorites for them rn. But, I simply don't understand how the franchise decided to stray away from this. These uniforms were a 10/10.
  7. This was after a random move from teal to black road numbers and a decision to take the stripes off the black pants. I don't think there's even a plurality of Jacksonville fans who preferred this move, which basically sucked all of the teal out of the uniform. This look never felt like the Jaguars to me, nor does the new set when they don't wear teal jerseys, pants or socks
  8. Every time Jacksonville wears a uniform without teal as a base of any garment they should get fined by the league.
  9. 49ers-Cowboys is the best uniform matchup in sports. Red against Blue Gold against Silver Similar uniform elements that emphasize the contrast
  10. Gracious, not only is Dallas silly for wearing a seldom-seen combo tonight, but dozens of players have white compression pants/white socks on, which makes them all look ridiculous. Please NFL, please require that teams wear uniforms correctly and that socks (and compression pants) must adhere to style guides. The NFL looks worse than it ever has
  11. So, clearly we have learned over the years that teams can make pant adjustments/additions without it counting as a redesign. If enough of us spam the Bengals with photoshops of the white pants with a black side stripe w/ orange stripes as they are, can we make that a campaign for the offseason? The clown fish pants are the only thing holding that set back from being my favorite in the NFL.
  12. Yeah, now that the other pro sports teams that used the Ravens font moved on, it's unique to them. It accomplished what many modern fonts can't in that it's instantly identifiable and completely legible. If anything, they just need to update to the Vapor Untouchable template. Because the uniform simply has numerals and sleeve patches, all of the unnecessary seams from the old template stick out like a sore thumb -- but I guess these are things the common fan doesn't notice or care about. I am all for them exploring an update just because, but I am just as content with them sticking to what they have. The only issue I have with their look is that the primary logo is a bit ridiculous.
  13. It’s not bad, but it isn’t nearly as distinctive as the previous iterations. They did make it go a long way by removing the unnecessary navy blue trim. Speaking of, Bills badly need to do the same. The navy blue on their uniforms is as thin as a pinstripe. The Bills are a royal blue and red team, the navy is just a holdout from the atrocious CFL-esque uniforms from the 2000s. Get rid of it, it does nothing for the overall look. anyways, I know people are unhappy they have made habit of wearing all blue, but i really don't mind it. There are many more bad uniform decisions being made by teams in the league these days. I do miss their striped socks, though unfortunately thats a bygone concept. One day when I am 60 years old I will tell my grandchildren socks used to be a part of the uniform
  14. Dear lord, Jacksonville. Just…why? With teal socks that’s one of the best looks in the league. Instead they look like they’re in longjohns.
  15. I appreciate the effort, but to me this bronco reminds me of the Falcons old "petrified bird" logo. Now, in real life, that logo sells like hot cakes because people like stuff that's old -- same reason a lot of other more "hand-drawn" looking logos from the distant past end up on popular merch these days. But with that said, when it comes to re-imagining the Broncos, this logo isn't as clean as the old horse logo and not nearly as much as the new one. So, it really just doesn't fit a logical direction for them. To me, the first thing that pops out is that the horse looks petrified, much like the old bird. Also, the shape and detailing is just a bit too brutalist for me. Denver is a weird team because both their old and modern logos are fantastic.
  16. Alright, I am super intrigued by the reporter saying he saw the Texans new uniforms. Did he see concepts? Didn't Houston just begin its exploratory phase for new unis? I am very skeptical that they are already done and that the first thought of the organization was show the media. Out of any group of people, showing the media would be the last priority -- and for good reason.
  17. I would prefer if the NFL stuck a foot back in the ground and only allowed alternate helmets for throwbacks. Alt helmets sounded fun in theory, especially for the Bengals, but even those turned out to be underwhelmingly bland uniforms. Everything else we got this year outside of throwbacks was bad.
  18. I don't find material to be a reason to shelve a good look for monochromatic, black/white. Afterall, I don't ever hear people complain about the 49ers uniforms not having sheen. Also, your last point is a bit off -- the 49ers actually wear more of a true gold than the Saints do, which has led many people suggesting they swap golds b/c the current Saints gold would be more akin to what the 49ers wore in the 80s.
  19. Countercounterpoint: it worked previously b/c the numerals were white, so it was balanced. The Saints don't need to be looking for solutions to anything, they have it: wear gold pants at home and on the road, wear black pants if your opponent is in gold pants. But, alas, we know not a single equipment manager in the league thinks this way, so this type of stuff is a pipe dream.
  20. I know this is probably only the way brains think for people on these boards, but the absolute incompetency from NFL teams re: uniforms feels like a microcosm of how quality control just ::everywhere:: is getting worse. Cardinals only wearing red pants vs. red teams (that game was actually hard to watch), Saints wearing white pants which looks like practice pants b/c their game pants got stolen, Lions incapable of wearing throwbacks on Thanksgiving, teams wearing black pants vs teams with black pants, etc. I miss the 90s.
  21. Alright, I’ve seen enough of these Washington white jerseys. The “white” material on the sleeve cap is closer to the grey Cowboys pants than it is the white jersey. I wish they could get an override of the 5 year rule and start over.
  22. I've been waiting for an Arena-jack my entire life, is now the time?
