Chargers uniform schedule is out. They'll wear powder blue for 7 of their 9 home games. They'll wear them on the road in Tennessee and the New York Jets. Navy blue against the Ravens and royal blue against the Broncos. I guess they aren't a WAH team anymore. I liked seeing the all white uniform at SoFi Stadium with the paint of the Chargers on the field.

It sounds like the Texans are wearing their red jerseys with red helmets 3 times this year. One of those games might be the Steelers since they are going to honor JJ Watt. The Texans aren't going to wear the all navy color rush this year given the fact about the red jerseys. They have Arizona listed as the deep steel blue game, that's likely going to be with the regular uniform set. Houston has worn all navy against the Browns the last 3 times they hosted Cleveland. The game against Cleveland might be a red jersey game instead. Since the Packers all green alternate/throwback was released in 2021, they have worn them for the latest October game. This year the latest October game is against the Minnesota Vikings. But Green Bay has not worn their throwback uniforms against an NFC North rival ever since the team carried throwbacks in 2010. I think the all green uniform game will be the Rams or Chargers. Teams often wear the same alternate/throwback against the same divisional foes. The Eagles have always worn all black against the Giants, save for a couple of games. The 49ers have worn all white uniforms against the Seahawks in Seattle since 2019. I noticed that New Orleans has worn the all white color rush/throwbacks against Tampa Bay ever since the Buccaneers introduced their current uniforms in 2020.

Wasn't 2015 forced because of the color rush promotion? That year a few teams volunteered. Back then it was mandatory. But then color rush games were done away with after 2017. Which probably lead to the limit change in 2018. I'm guessing Seattle is doing the same thing that the Giants did when they played the Rams in 2021? Is it possible that the Panthers are doing the same thing when the Cardinals wore black in Seattle in 2020?

This came out not that long ago. https://operations.nfl.com/media/nppjkdp1/2023-record-and-fact-book.pdf Go to pages 14-18. It tells you of the future schedules up until 2030. For the 17th out of conference same place finishers games, 2025-2028 are a repeat of 2021-2024. But in 2029 that's when things being to change up. If you believe that or not. I wanted to post this in the changes thread, but thought it would be better here.

Unless they meet again because of the same place finisher that's now a thing. Courtesy of the 17 game implementation.

2023 NFL Regular Season Through Super Bowl LVIII
gothedistance replied to PittsburghSucks's topic in Sports In General
The AFC has far better QBs. While the NFC has many middle tier ones. -
The Patriots will be home to the Saints and the Dolphins host the Giants. Unless Miami wears the white throwbacks for the week 2 game, they're most likely wearing their normal whites.

I like teams wearing white jerseys at home, to see how the uniforms blend in with the home stadium and field. But last year the amount of times they did it was overkill. It was like the Jets had no identity. The only game with the gotham green jerseys was the Detroit game.

Texans revealed their home game themes for 2023. The battle red will be against the Jaguars. And as usual, they'll be in all white for the home opener. Houston will do deep steel blue against Arizona. But is it the color rush one or the regular uniform set? The Texans have worn all navy against the Browns the last 3 meetings. Is that different this time? I was convinced Houston will do all navy against Cleveland.

I liked the wolf grey better than the lime green. I'm going to miss the Seahawk's wolf grey. I didn't care that much for the "action green".

Except that game 2 years ago was when ARZ was in the uniform that they are leaving behind. I don't mind because the Cardinals have new uniform sets. But yeah, I am disappointed about the SF game. I wish it was like the 2007 game. You wanna know something? I don't know if you're aware. A lot of teams have worn their alternate or throwbacks against the 49ers. If you count what teams have an opponent wearing their third or fourth jersey against them, the 49ers are the most of all teams. After them it would be the Giants. Good thing it's a 17 game season now. There's a chance to recover that lost opportunity. Maybe when the 49ers and Browns meet again by drawing each other?

I had another dream. It was was the Buccaneers in the orange throwbacks. In the dream I saw players but couldn't tell if they were in practice or warming up for a game (upcoming in week 6). There was a team in white, I don't know if it was the Detroit Lion players or if it was Buccaneer players who were practicing against another unit of the Buccaneers in orange. I looked on the pattern of Dallas wearing the navy blue jersey at home. They've done this on games before their Thanksgiving games; 2018 against Titans, 2019 against Vikings, and 2022 against Bears. The 2021 and 2020 season notwithstanding. If they still do that, they'll do in week 10 against the Giants. Ever since the Chargers played in Sofi and the current navy blue was introduced, they have worn them for their 4th home game. It the routine holds up, LAC will wear them against the Bears in week 8. That would also make it the 4th time they've worn them against teams with dark colors, another navy team or team in black (Raiders). The royal blue alternate has always been worn sometime in December, and before the final home game. It will be either against the Broncos or Bills. Which do you think it will be?
