  1. 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.
  2. The Lions and Chiefs both have patches on their right chest where the Super Bowl patch typically goes, so we're looking at two non-traditional patch placements in all likelihood.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Baltimore's 2012 Super Bowl run came with the black pants as well. If they win it all this year, I'm guessing these just become the playoff pants full time.
  6. 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.
  7. So I'm assuming these are the uniforms we'll see next weekend: Now, the Lions have changed up their uniforms every time they've lost in them, and they did lose in the all-white last time they wore them. I think we see them anyway, but the blue pants instead wouldn't surprise me. The Chiefs would be in white over red with a win. Not sure if the Bill would go with white over white with blue socks or white over blue with white socks, but they won their last two road games in those combos.
  8. I like those uniforms, but I think they would be so much better with the purple socks.
  9. They beat Tampa in silver pants on the road earlier this season, so maybe that's why. Also possible someone up top chimed in and said they want the traditional look now that they're into the thick of it in the playoffs. If it's the latter, we hopefully would not see mono white the week after.
  10. Ravens, Chiefs, and Bills all have good home uniforms. 49ers, Packers, and Bucs all have good road uniforms. If the Super Bowl is between any of those teams, it should look good. Please keep the Lions and their all-white pajamas away from that game. The Ravens have never worn their regular purple over white against the Packers. We've also never gotten their purple over white against the Bucs in white over pewter, and the last time the Ravens wore purple over white against San Francisco, they also wore white socks, and the 49ers were in their old set. That was back in 2003. So, if the Ravens make the Super Bowl and wear their home uniform, we're guaranteed a first uniform matchup.
  11. I don't like the nameplate, but these are fun other than that. The All-Star jerseys probably shouldn't be judged by the standards of traditional jersey aesthetics anyway, since they're being made for a one-off exhibition and not being asked to represent a franchise over the course of hundreds of games. These are loud and cheesy and vibrant, but they also know what they want to be and they stick to it. I think it's clear they are well designed, even if it doesn't fit traditional hockey design parameters. They won't be for everyone, but they also aren't supposed to be either, and that's ok. For something like this, I think you'd rather miss by swinging for the fences than make something boring. It's a hit for me.
  12. The Texans have been leaving a gap in the fill for their endzones all season long. Looks like they have them fully filled in today.
  13. Looks like white over gold for the Rams. The only team we don't know is Philly, and it seems like a safe bet they'll be in all white since they won in that in Tampa earlier this year and they lost last time out in green pants. They should be announcing tomorrow.
  14. As far as monochrome uniforms go, I think tonight's are two of the more tasteful ones. Michigan has a distinctive color scheme and helmet design. A simple, monochromatic uniform below that allows the helmet to shine and the maize to pop off the navy blue. Washington, meanwhile, has the gold helmet paired with a jersey and pants with matching stripes. That's perfectly acceptable monochrome there throughout the history of football aesthetics. I definitely don't think either uniform choice detracted from the brands in question.
  15. I will note, the Texans lost to the Browns in navy over white a few weeks ago, and their last playoff win came in mono blue at home. Would not be shocked to see Houston wear all blue.
  16. Here's what I think we see this weekend: Browns: orange/white/orange/white Texans: navy/navy/white/white Browns seem to like orange pants in big games, Texans stick to regular home uniforms. Dolphins: white/white/aqua/aqua Chiefs: red/red/white/red Dolphins haven't worn aqua pants in a while and just lost in all white, also lost in all white earlier this year. Steelers: black/white/yellow/black Bills: white/blue/white/blue Bills just won in blue over white. Packers: yellow/green/yellow/green Cowboys: silver/white/seafoam/blue Regular uniforms. Rams: blue/white/yellow/blue Lions: silver/blue/blue/blue Rams stick to yellow pants in the playoffs, Lions stay in monochrome after losing at home in blue over silver early this season. Eagles: green/green/white/white Bucs: pewter/white/pewter/black Bucs just lost in red over pewter and lost to Eagles in red earlier this season. White over pewter has been their playoff primary.
  17. Big Game Blues confirmed.
  18. The Michigan mannequin at media day is wearing all blue. I'm guessing this is what Michigan wears Monday night. They wore this combo for the first time under the Jordan brand back in 2021... against Washington in a blowout win at home under the lights. I suspect this is the matchup we're getting:
  19. The Jets have not worn a green jersey or green pants against New England since 2019. In the 8 games since, they've worn all white below the helmet 4 times, white over black twice, all black once, and all black with the green helmets once. The last time the Jets wore green jerseys with white pants against New England was in 2017, the 2nd to last year of their previous set. They have yet to wear their "default" home and road uniforms with this set against their closest division rival in 10 matchups.
