I'd like to see the candy apple red helmet with the color rush jersey, I think that would look good. The red of the helmet would tie into the red numbers, but it wouldn't be as jarring a difference in finishes as you get with the red jersey. 

That with white pants and navy or red socks could be the good basis for a new look.

That does look like a darker red on the logos on the briefcase, although, as always, that could be the lighting. 

This looks fantastic. I'm a huge fan.

I haven’t seen any articles that support this claim…where did you find that info? 

 

The SB field cost $800,000, the Broncos field cost $400,000…

 

There’s also this:

 

It was not the paint:

The size of the scorebug makes total sense. It's designed with phones in mind. That's a graphic that will still display all of the important stuff when highlights are viewed vertically. I'm a little surprised it took this long for someone to do that, but it looks much better for TikTok, Instagram, and the like. 

It's funny to watch the evolution of this stuff from 4:3 to 16:9 to 9:16. 

I could see the argument for charcoal over black. The issue, though, is that it's about the same brightness as the midnight green, so they blend together. 

Keep charcoal for in-stadium and social media branding and merch if you want, but it just doesn't work next to midnight green on a football uniform. 

I think a midnight green and silver identity would look good for Philly. Drop the black and charcoal accents, focus on midnight green as the primary, and add silver pants. 

I actually really like how Philly's green looks on the matte fabric, I think the shiny fabrics made it look too grey at times. I enjoy the higher-saturation look of the newer fabric.

I also really like the lighting in that stadium. I'm not a huge fan of the overly bright stadiums, it makes the game feel almost sterile to me like it's being played under hospital lights or something. Having a slightly darker stadium makes it feel more dramatic to me. 

I thought that was a fantastic looking Super Bowl. Great colors, vibrant logo on the field, nice contrast. Could have been better, but I'm pretty happy with how it looked. 

These MLB ads make the jerseys look like what I wore in rec league as a kid lol. You will never convince me this is anything but greed. Makes the game look cheap. 

A closer view at Philly's endzone. 

@BathysphereThe Pats had worn twice in blue (36, 38) but had just lost 42 and 46 in blue when they went WAH for the Super Bowl. That said, your greater point still stands. Teams usually wear what they've worn all season unless there's some big reason not to. 

I don't think the Rams set some precedent about wearing alternates, I think everybody used their common sense about those uniforms and the team had already set in motion their plans to elevate it. 

@pitt6pack I found some video to help you for that 2000 field.

Here's a highlight package for the game itself where you can see the underneath endzones bleeding through. Here's the full bowl game, which was the 2000 MicronPC.com Bowl Game between NC State and Minnesota. Looks like that one was played on Thursday and the playoff game was on Saturday, so a quick turnaround there. Philip Rivers was the MVP of that one. If you're looking to update that Dolphins one, this should give you enough to know what the underneath design was. 

That looked like a white undershirt hanging out, and I'm not sure they even wear game pants for those media shoots. 

I think it's safe to assume red pants until we see otherwise given what the team has worn in recent years. 

First look at the field.

I seem to remember Tampa wearing white because they won in the divisional and championship rounds wearing it. Their one game wearing red in the playoffs was on the road, and I think they were just keeping the road/underdog team vibe going. 

New England is LII was because they won XLIX and LI in white. They lost in XLII and XLVI in blue and basically made the white jerseys their Super Bowl ones at that point.

People just like the black jerseys and they look cool on social media, I wouldn't read into it.

I think Bengals/49ers is probably our best Super Bowl uniform matchup left. If socks weren't an issue, I'd say Chiefs/Eagles is up there, too. 

What the Eagles really need are green socks that match the jersey and helmet. 

The 4k broadcast of the game seemed really dim to me.

I don't love monochrome, but at least the Vikings have big stripes on the pants that break it up and match the sleeve stripe that actually kind of make it work. It reminds me of a hockey uniform in a way.

This is still a better uniform matchup than their first meeting. Purple vs. red looks nice.

Is it just me, or does it seem like most of these guys are wearing the right socks all of a sudden? I wonder if the league said something for the postseason.
