  1. Don't know if this was mentioned. Prior to the Thanksgiving day match, NYG never wore the  white jerseys that were introduced in 2005 against Dallas. This was the first time wearing those against the Cowboys. 

     

    The Browns wore their brown color rush against two teams that would've been a very good uniform matchup, Buccaneers and Chargers. We might not see TB at CLE again until 2030, unless they finish in the same place when the AFC North hosts the NFC South for common place finishers when that takes place.

     

    10 out of 16 games had a team wear their alternate or throwback. This is probably a record for most teams wearing an alternate/throwback in a week.

    That was easily the best looking Ravens Jaguars game ever played, and possibly the most entertaining as well. 

     

    It was nice to see the Chargers bring back the yellow pants for a road game. With the win, I really hope they wear them at Vegas this week for the first time.

     

    I would say the Ravens definitely wear black for this game, the Bucs likely wear Color Rush, and Denver likely goes back to navy pants.

     

    Both those games ended up with the winning team going for 2 to get the win.

     

    Baltimore and Jacksonville will meet again next year in Jacksonville. I wonder what the uniform matchup will be next time.

    They usually only wear it during primetime game so it will either be TNF against the Rams or Christmas Eve against the Steelers. The rare exception was 2020 when they played the Chargers in an afternoon game.

     

    If it's the Rams game then it's just another appearance at Sofi, albeit instead of the Chargers it's against the Rams.

     

    The Steelers game would be pretty late. I also wouldn't rule out a home game for its appearance.

    There it is officially. No idea what inspired them to bring this back. This team does not need multiple alternates and especially should not ever wear white at home.

     

    This is one of the uniforms I don't mind the white socks.

     

    Snow would go well with the uniform. 


    Green Bay has worn them once on the road. Probably because it's better served for home games.

    There’s also this to suggest the white CR is coming back:

     

     

    There was this. https://www.si.com/nfl/packers/news/could-packers-break-from-tradition-with-new-alternate-jerseys

    A couple of times, including a 2017 home game against the Bears, the Packers have gone with an all-white look for the old “Color Rush” Thursday night games.

    “Those are still in our closet,” Packers vice president of finance and administration Paul Baniel said.

     

    That was back in July.

    Color Rush is confirmed for Detroit on social media. Why do the Dolphins always do this? It’s white over aqua pretty much all the time on the road unless the opposing team wears a monochrome/Color Rush look. Then it’s the stupid white pants and white socks look. The aqua pants would’ve added some much needed color to this matchup and still clashed perfectly.

     

    I wish Miami wore the aqua pants too. We see the all white plenty of times when they are at home.

     

    And how come teams are allowed to wear white against the Lions' gray (or whatever color you want to call it) uniform now? It used to be that the opposing team were forced to wear their colored jersey/uniform when Detroit busted the color rush out.

    They played in Baltimore last year.

    That's the color rush jersey/uniform. I meant the Ravens regular purple jersey. They haven't even worn those when they played Green Bay in the preseason; the Ravens wore white at home in the two times they hosted them.

     

    If the stars aligned, we might also get to see something different to what we saw with MIN vs CIN and CHI vs CLE in 2021.

    The orange socks to me made it that much worse. Plus white at home for an inter conference game is a huge no-no for me.

     

    Thankfully there's a 17th game now. So one of those games that fell to WAH can be recovered. 

     

    I'm pulling hard for the Ravens and Packers to finish in the same place. I want to see the uniform matchup that we've been robbed of for all these years. Next year the AFC North will host the team from the NFC North that finishes in the same place as them. Minnesota looks like they'll win the NFC North. I hope the Bengals win the AFC North. If the Packers and Ravens both finish in second place in their respective divisions, Green Bay at Baltimore. I hope it stays that way.

  9. I see the pattern for the Cardinals' black jersey. The regular black jersey they have always worn them for the first October home game under the current HC. Last time that wasn't the case was in 2018 when Arizona wore them against the Lions in December. The color rush black jersey they have always worn them for Thursday night games, when the color rush requirement was a thing and after.

    On a side note, the Bucs will be in red over pewter in Carolina this week. That whole white at home for the first five games thing is really working out well for the Panthers this season. Thank goodness they can lose in that humid 62 degree weather comfortably.

     

    This is the most that Carolina has worn white at home in a regular season. The Panthers got a lot of home games early, so that's why they did WAH as much as they did. Normally, they would do 2 or 3 games. 

     

    They probably are doing it against the Bucs because Tampa Bay is wearing their white tops in the second meeting. It could be that the Panthers are doing it to return the favor.
