If that is to be believed, we won't be getting the same look as 2021.

This sucks. I liked the 2021 uniform matchup. Wanted to get it again.

This happened after they discontinued the “mandatory Color Rush” program that forced teams into these uniforms for the Thursday night games. 2018 I think? That’s when you started getting the Cowboys in white pants with the navy jerseys.

 

I recall it being the game against the Giants in 2017.

They added the Oiler throwback but didn't remove the Columbia Blue from the closet

Tennessee wore the columbia blue tops in Jacksonville and Miami. I was thinking they would do the same in Tampa. If what the article says is to be believed, the Titans will wear the navy blue jersey with white pants when visiting the Buccaneers.

Shame, jets in green vs chargers white/yellow would have been great.

There's a chance for the Chargers and Jets to play again at Metlife, next year in 2024 and in 2025. As for this year, there's a decent chance for them to draw each other. I will say that if Herbert plays better then the two teams won't.

Is this the combo LAC is going with tonight?

I like the Commanders vs Patriots uniform matchup. But this game pales in comparison to the 2007 and 2015 games.

Just an odd decision all around. Everyone loves the Chargers’ powder blues and the Jets are just gonna let them wear them in their home stadium in prime time. I don’t get it. And white over black in their minds is supposed to compete with the look as though it’s even comparable lol

I want to see the Jets in green pants with the white jerseys in the current look against the Chargers powder blue jersey and white pants. We missed on that in 2020. 

When did NYJ start the white over black look? Was it during the first year of Robert Saleh and Zach Wilson?

I want to see the Eagles throw back to the white helmet uniform.

 

 

These are beautiful.

 

 

The picture makes me want to see the Eagles bust the throwbacks out for the Steelers when they meet in 2024.

Chiefs or Raiders hopefully. 

The Chargers would be good too. Them in the yellow pants with the white jerseys playing the Seahawks in the throwbacks would be fantastic.

Unless the Seahawks fall off a cliff the rest of the season, it will probably be Chargers or Chiefs

If Seattle doesn't get one or either of KC or LAC, they'll get them in 2026. There's still a lot left in the season. The 49ers aren't running away with the NFC West like people thought they would. The Rams aren't as bad as they were projected to be. Seattle could finish anywhere from 1st to 3rd place. Then on the AFC West side KC hasn't been all that impressive. The Raiders will either be the same or get worse with Antonio Pierce now as HC.

Seattle will host an AFC West opponent for the 17th game next year, their 9th home game. The Seahawks should use one of the throwback allotment for that game. 

I have the best as this.

Browns vs Seahawks

Bears vs  Chargers

Vikings vs Packers

Jets vs Giants

Rams vs Cowboys

Falcons vs Titans

As for the worst.

Raiders vs Lions

Chiefs vs Broncos

Eagles vs Commanders

I hate when teams go back to old looks without adapting it for modern conventions. If you're going back to an old look that's an opportunity to fix some of the things that didn't work the first time. It's an opportunity to incorporate some of the new stuff that's been done well in the intervening years. It doesn't have to be/shouldn't be re-adopted identically to the old look just because that's how it was worn the first time. The Chargers are a good example of how to do this right.

 

 

 

 

I'll add the Browns and Buccaneers to that.

Why did the Falcons wear their black jerseys at Tennessee? Did it have to do with Arthur Smith spending time on the coaching staff with the Titans.

Good thing Bears vs Chargers didn't get flexed out of SNF. The uniform matchup looked good under the bright lights. I don't think it would have looked as good as a daytime game. LAC choosing white pants was another good thing.

I wish the Bengals wore white pants instead. CIN vs SF would've been better.

Browns vs Seahawks is outstanding. Cleveland being in the brown pants is the best out of all the combo choices they could've had with the Seahawks throwbacks IMO.

Jets in green pants with the white jerseys would've made NYJ vs NYG a great uniform matchup.

Woody Johnson is making the uniform choice. No wonder his teams have been bad.

Fun fact: This is the first time since 2009 that the Cowboys are wearing white vs. the Chargers. Yes, you read that right.

The alternate white though. 

Maybe next time they meet it'll be the regular one.

This is another underwhelming week. There aren't that many good uniform matchups. Last week and this week are the worst weeks of the 2023 season when it comes to that.

The only ones I liked are Seahawks vs Bengals, Lions vs Buccaneers, and Panthers vs Dolphins. Though I wish Miami wore aqua socks, that would've made it better. Detroit didn't wear blue pants like people wanted, but the uniform matchup was still good, the Bucs orange is outstanding. Vikings vs Bears and Patriots vs Raiders are decent. 

Saints in black pants for the Texans game in NRG. I wanted the same look from the 2007 meeting. Now we have another awful and boring uniform matchup.

Dallas is going with their all white color rush. 

We could've had this for Cowboys vs Chargers 

That game was in 1972.

There was the preseason game they had last year too.

They also wore brown against them already in 2021:

That was when Arizona was in the previous design. Now they'll be in their new ones. 

The Cardinals only appearance so far in the white uniform has been against another red team, their NFC West rival SF. I'd like to see them against a team who doesn't have the same color before just brushing them off.

Chiefs are in white pants. Well that is extremely disappointing. There will be lots of white in that game now.

There aren't that many good looking uniform matchups this week.

Carolina vs Detroit this week wasn't as bad as it was in the preseason. But it still isn't much.

This is the worst week of the 2023 season so far. In terms of quality of uniform matchups.

Giants vs Dolphins is good. But if Miami wore aqua socks, that would have been better.

The Cardinals always wear their black jerseys somewhere in October. They had two versions of it in the previous uniform design though.

Bad choice against the Bengals, but it at least won't look worse than last year's Week 5 abomination:

Did something you fear now happened?
