    What striping pattern would you use, though? The Chargers have no stripes anywhere on the jersey or stadium, and putting the bolt on the socks would look horrendous.

     

    Side note: at the beginning of the game, I thought the Chargers looked too bottom heavy, and they should switch to blue facemasks. But as the game went on, the uniform grew on me, and the numbers provided just enough blue to balance the socks, thus creating a near-perfect look.

    The Jets have a similar problem. They look better with white socks when they wear green pants, but their tapered striping system wouldn't work on a sock.

    The part that says uniform schedule. https://www.49erswebzone.com/articles/160787-notebook-roleplaying-justin-fields-uniform-schedule-revealed-challenge/

     

    If true, red throwbacks against the Rams and Chiefs.

     

    They would wear the white throwbacks for the 4th consecutive year against the Seahawks. San Francisco likes to wear the white throwbacks against Seattle just like Seattle likes to wear the alternate wolf grey against Arizona.

    Add the 49ers to the list of teams that isn't on the same page as their opponents and just assumes every road opponent will wear color. Carolina already announced that it will be in white for that game.

     

    Also add them to list of teams who that wear their alternates against the same teams over and over. Chiefs is different, but why wear your red and white combo against another red and white team?

    Glad we're getting that Atlanta throwbacks twice, those uniforms are awesome.

     

    It's a shame we won't see the Jets in their green jerseys that much. Their green over white combo in genuinely really good, at least when it comes to color blocking. We should see it more.

    5 things we learned from the NY Jets preseason win over the Eagles

    It's also their team color that they've been known for and is literally in their nickname. This decision is simply not acceptable from a branding standpoint. And not to mention, at least one of those three games will be all-green.

    Sure, but isn’t it just weird that literally every single time they’ve played against the Lions when the red throwback was available they’ve worn it? That more than 40% of the games in which they’ve ever worn the red throwback are against the Lions (not counting the AFL legacy games they didn’t get to choose)? Yeah yeah, the teams don’t choose their unis based on any sort of weird little rules that we come up with around here, and the first two were thanksgiving, but the third is just a boggling fixation on putting it against one team that you have no history with.

    As much as I wish teams thought this way and looked back at previous matchups, it’s got to be a coincidence in most of these cases. The thought process was probably something like “Let’s wear it for that rivalry prime time game in Week 13 and then let’s pick a game earlier in the season. Let’s wear our regular uniforms for the home opener and then throwback the following game” (which in this case happens to be the Lions)

    There are specks of navy on the logo, facemask, lettering, numbers, and every stripe on the uniform.

    Maybe speck wasn’t the right word. All I’m saying is there was no need to make navy nothing more than a trim color. This look was fine with a navy helmet and socks, and now they won’t even look like the Bears when it’s worn.
