So the Jets went the entire lifespan of these uniforms without wearing the main one against one of their division rivals, the Patriots. Went white at home against NE twice, blackout twice, and green/green/green/white once.

This doesn't match up with the other leak at all. And this one seems more reputable IMO. -
Figured I'd go through these one by one: Eagles - fair critiques, just a difference of styles. I prefer to just have the collars colored with this color scheme, and I've always liked this current Eagles font. I do hear you on the grey and white losing themselves in one another, I can come back around when I make tweaks and see if I can clean that up. Seahawks - I like the splash of neon green, but I see where it could be too much for some. I can look at toning that down a bit by using it more as an accent color. Jets - this is the concept I like the least in here. very tough to blend the modern and the traditional with the Jets. may come back and re-do this entire thing at some point. Ravens - I wanted to go simple here, with the number font and color scheme carrying the day. I also think the Maryland flag gets a bit overdone, and adding a logo just to add a logo doesn't do much. If I think of a design I like, I'll add it. Otherwise, this one is going to stay the same for me. Lions - went through the same dilemma when making this. I think it looks good anyway, so I'm not going to try to shoehorn in white if it doesn't need to be there. Titans - Similar to the Ravens, I was trying to let the color blocking and larger design carry this one and stick to simplicity. I could definitely add a wordmark on the front, but I do get worried that adding more to the shoulder design would actually take away from it. I'll mull that over, but the shoulder yoke like that is quintessential Titans to me, so I was always going to build around that. Thank you for the feedback! Thank you! I have a feeling Carolina is going to come later in my list, mostly because that's one team where I have a ton of different ideas I like a lot and I need time to narrow it down. But I can assure you, those helmet swooshes will be gone (just like they are for my Ravens and Titans concepts). Here's what that would have looked like for you.

I saw this earlier @pitt6pack, not sure if it helps.

I'm guessing they're just doing the turf field on the inside as well so they have a stand-in field for all the media stuff that goes on at the stadium before the game this week. It looks better than a blank field, and they clearly have the resources to paint two fields. I think we've seen every team that uses yellow that's made the Super Bowl use it as their endzone color at least once. Kansas City has in every Super Bowl, and Minnesota, Green Bay, Washington, Pittsburgh, and both current LA teams. You also have teams like the Giants (red), Falcons (red), Patriots (red), Saints (gold), Dolphins (orange), Bears (orange), Eagles (grey), Titans (Columbia blue), and Broncos (navy blue) that all used secondary colors in the endzone at points. The Chiefs using a secondary color is not at all abnormal, especially given the tradition angle for them. Sometimes it's just nice to see your team's colors against an accented background.

The fact that Nike keeps making jerseys just good enough for people to buy but continuously bad enough that people will demand a new set and then buy another one is why they're successful. I'm 100% sure what they do drives up jersey sales, which is everyone's definition of success here except for us.

As long as the Titans stuck to these combos, I thought the old set was mostly fine.

The NFL had the home team on the left from 1972 with Miami and Washington all the way through 2009 with the Saints and Colts. It was then home team on the right through 2016 with the Pats and Falcons. It has been AFC on the left, NFC on the right ever since then, until this year it seems. This returns to home team on the right for at least a game.

From what I can tell, they've kept the Raiders number font when they've replaced the grass with turf for other events. Feels like it's a 50/50 thing to me. We'll find out very soon!

Popping on to add my Championship Weekend concepts. My Ravens concept is already upthread, and I'll add the other three teams that played this weekend here. The Chiefs, Lions, and 49ers all have a good base for their uniforms already, so you won't see drastic changes here. For the Chiefs, my goal was simple: make the stripes consistent. When worn correctly, the Chiefs currently have one of the best sets in the NFL. My only gripe is having differing stripe patterns on the sleeves, pants, and socks. I cleaned that up in this concept. Paired with my Ravens concepts, here's how the AFC Championship would look. Now, let's move to the NFC. I'll start with the visiting Lions. Their current set has strong components to it, but the double grey, logos in the stripes, number font, and insistence on wearing bad combos all detract from the overall picture. This concept takes the idea of the current uniforms and mixes it with more traditional Lions aesthetics. Also, we're bringing back the shiny silver pants. Their hosts, the San Francisco 49ers, just about nailed their uniforms with the saloon font wordmark on the front and the three stripes on the sleeves. I added those stripes back to the socks, introduced a wider pants stripe, and returned the gold pants to a shiny finish. My NFC Championship: And, as a bonus, here's what the Super Bowl would look like:

Which number font do we think they'll be using?

I wouldn't make it 10 games, I'd just say that whatever the primary combinations are must be worn like 4 times each. The Browns could go white over orange as their primary with two white over white and two white over brown games or something like that. That's plenty of variety, but with a clear hierarchy. It could also change from season to season, that's fine with me.

I would definitely be in favor of each team having to declare primary home and road uniforms, complete with pants and socks, and the league setting minimums on how often those uniforms must be worn. Those would also be the uniforms teams would wear in the playoffs. I have no issue with rotating pairs of pants or switching things up, but part of a brand is establishing your color blocking.

I shouldn't like Baltimore's yoga pants, but, for some reason, they've always been an exception to me. I think this game looks tremendous all around. The darkness of Baltimore's looks against the bright red and yellow works really well and played outdoors on a grass field in gloomy weather just sets the tone perfectly for playoff football.

I don't think there's anything more true to sports fandom than rooting against a team because you don't like what they wear. The fun of sports is about the coexistence of amazing narratives and people that are fun to root for and the petty grievances that make us root against those same stories at times.
