The Jaguars and Buccaneers play each other next year. All of the games in Tampa have been the Bucs in white jerseys and the Jags in their dark jersey. Jacksonville winning the AFC South might help  get that game to be put on primetime. They also would draw the 49ers, as the NFC West  and AFC South have each other for the same place finisher  in 2023 for the 17th cross conference game. I liked the 49ers white/gold vs Jaguars teal/white in 2021, and would like to see it again, provided that game is beyond September.

This was the only other time where the Packers were in white jerseys and Dolphins in aqua jerseys. The 1971 game.

The 2022 meeting that took place was the second time.

I thought what the Vikings did with the field to go along with the all whiteout was cool. It's good to wear a uniform combo at home when the other opportunities to wear them on the road could be taken away for some games by the other uniform combos. Especially to show to the home fans and how the uniform looks at the home stadium.

The Vikings were the team who went the longest without wear white jerseys at home since the last time they wore white at home. 

Here are the teams who who have gone the longest without wearing white tops at home since they last did it. Seattle does not count into this being that the Seahawks never wore white at home.

Teams who if you count just their own home stadiums, and exclude the Super Bowl or neutral site games.

1. Pittsburgh Steelers (1969)

2. Denver Broncos (2003)

3. Kansas City Chiefs (2006)

4. Arizona Cardinals (2009)

5. New England Patriots (2011)

If you count teams who wore white as the Super Bowl host team and regardless of stadium.

1.  Kansas City Chiefs (2006)

2. Arizona Cardinals (2009)

3. Philadelphia Eagles (2015)

Can the Saints please, please wear white jersey and gold pants? It would be so much more aesthetically appealing against the Browns in brown jersey and white pants. 

The one game where they did wear gold pants, against the 49ers, I wished they wore the white or black pants.

This Bengals/Buccaneers matchup is deeply unappealing.

So is this Giants at Commanders game. And Cardinals vs Broncos game.

I would imagine grey is going away, based off how many neon jerseys I see in the stands during Seattle games

I don't think that's determinant of which one goes away. Other things factor in too.

So either the green or the grey is going away next year with the return of the throwbacks unless nfl rules change, right?

I like the wolf grey. I don't care for the neon green.

The 49ers like to wear the white alternates against the Seahawks just like how the Seahawks like to wear their wolf grey against the Cardinals.

The Cardinals red jerseys look better when they play outside of their home stadium. Not the Carolina game this season though. I mean games like last year in Jacksonville and Tennessee.

The game last year against the Jaguars white jerseys and teal pants was one of the times when the Cardinals red jerseys looked good.

Dallas has Miami on the road next year in 2023. I'm really hoping that game doesn't get put on primetime. The Dolphins being good might do that.  So I'm pulling for the Dolphins to lose more games as much as possible.

The Ravens white tops/purple pants and Steelers black/yellow is great. Probably the best uniform combo in the team's meeting.

Vikings vs Lions would've been good if Detroit didn't go mono. Same with Buffalo in Jets vs Bills.

I wish the Broncos wore white pants with the navy jersey. And we've gotten our share of the navy pants.

Houston should wear the red alternate against Dallas. Even if it was for a preseason game I would be glad to see it. We've seen the same uniform matchup too many times now.

I wish the Bengals wore the white color rush against the Browns.  The battle of Ohio is too lacking in contrast.

Looks like Seahawks in navy/grey on Sunday. Wouldn't be surprised to also see this combo on Thursday night if it's not a green jersey game. It matches with the cold weather IMO.

 

 

Seattle should wear the white/grey combo against the Jets. It would eliminate the abundance of green.

Seems like when they wear these at home it's for December games, based on these two years this has been done so far.

I hope the Vikings throwbacks from 2007-2011 make a return. Those would easily be their best uniform if they brought it along.

I knew the Raiders would bust out the silver numbers against the Rams. It's 3 straight years the Raiders wear them at Sofi Stadium, 2 with the Chargers and 1 with the Rams. Last time it wasn't at Sofi Stadium or against the Chargers was in 2018 on Thursday night against the 49ers.

In their current digs, maybe. I'd probably place them 2nd and Carolina 1st.   Now if you take their best versions---- super tough rankings. 

I find the Bucs uniforms the best in the NFC South.  The Carolina Panthers uniforms are good but they're overrated.

This is the schedule the rest of the way:

• Sunday, Dec. 11 (Week 14) – Dolphins at Chargers
• Sunday, Dec. 18 (Week 15) – Patriots at Raiders
• Sunday, Dec. 25 (Week 16) – Buccaneers at Cardinals
• Sunday, Jan. 1 (Week 17) – Rams at Chargers
• Sunday, Jan. 8 (Week 18) – Matchup TBD

Good options for week 18 include: Cowboys at Commanders, Jets and Dolphins, Giants at Eagles, and Ravens at Bengals.

 

Of the remaining scheduled games, Rams/Chargers is probably another flex, too. Dolphins/Pats seems like the only game that week worth flexing. Maybe Cleveland/Washington too.

 

 

Dolphins/Patriots; only if the Patriots are still in the hunt and depending how they look at that point. Browns/Commanders, no. The only game that week that looks good to flex in is Jets vs Seahawks. But will it be interesting enough?

Are they switching the uniform that they said they would wear?

They should wear the other white pants. The one with the gray stripes.

At this point, I just hope we get this matchup in the playoffs in Cincinnati so that the Bengals are forced to wear black:

Mahomes has not played a playoff game on the road other than the Super Bowl. KC will have to lose another game, and at least tie with CIN, for the Bengals have the tiebreaker over the Chiefs since beating them head to head.

The Chargers white tops/yellow pants vs the Raiders black and silver was fantastic.

Do we get to see the Raiders in the silver numbering/nameplate jersey this year?

And there's your Twitterverse public opinion poll evidence right there--the twitterfolk prefer the black.

 

Much to all our chagrins, apparently... 

How many of the voters choosing the black pants are robots, and how many are humans who are going along with what they are being told? No way is the white/black combo esteemed more than the white/green.

Field looks great.

What happened to the lighthouse at the stadium?
