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. 

I like those uniforms, but I think they would be so much better with the purple socks.

Seems like mocking.

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.

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. 

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. 

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.

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. 

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.

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. 

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.

Big Game Blues confirmed.

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:

I've been wanting NYJ@NE to have the Jets in green pants with the white jerseys against the Patriots current navy. How long until we get this uniform matchup? Are we ever going to get it? 

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.

Jets in white over black on Sunday, and, based on the replies, the fans hate it.

Jerseys worn for every game are picked out prior to the season starting and no one knew this would be a primetime game till this week so they probably picked out the white and are unable to change it now.

That's the first I've ever heard of this being the case. I have to imagine all parties involved would have no issue with Miami breaking out aqua or the aqua throwbacks Sunday night should they so choose. 

Scouring through GUD, the last time Miami wore WAH for a night game was in 2005. That game was scheduled for 1:00 but got flexed to Friday night due to a hurricane. The same thing also happened in 2004, with that game moving to Sunday night. In 1997, they wore WAH on MNF for a game moved due to the World Series. I believe 1996 is the last time Miami wore WAH for a game originally scheduled for primetime, doing it twice on MNF against the Steelers and Bills.

It will almost definitely be a different jersey since that one has Rose Bowl-specific iconography on it. I'm guessing we see Michigan back to the regular navy jersey, but whether they bring the maize or navy pants is a mystery. I'm hoping they keep the good luck charm going and go for maize pants and white accessories, but I fear they go back to the other good luck charm in the Big Game Blues that they wore when beating Ohio State twice. 

Washington wore white five times this year, three times with purple pants and twice with white. I'll lean purple pants for that one, especially since they wore those when they beat Michigan in 1992.

They haven’t worn color rush yet this season

Ah I thought their game against LA was color rush, but I see now it was just regular all purple. 

The Ravens have already worn the color rush and have worn black twice; that means they've hit their allotment of alternate games, right?

Blue and maize with white accessories and a gaudy patch on the shoulder for the Rose Bowl is a classic Michigan look.

Why are Bevo’s handlers wearing the title game patch? They haven’t qualified yet.

 

 

That's just the Playoff patch I think. They also use it as the championship patch, but it isn't just that.

What a fantastic looking Rose Bowl, and we got a game that lived up to the hype as well. Note sure college football gets better looking than this. Some pics from it:

The Michigan Rose Bowl uniform is corny and cheesy and over the top in the best ways possible. I love it. 

All white with aqua socks for Miami today. Their pregame post seemed to indicate aqua pants.
