    It's funny how they're like "Teal pants are back!!" as if they're a commodity that the team can't control.  Like they were sold out for 6 months, but are now back in stock, or something like that.

     

    If it's a big deal that teal pants are back, and you control the supply, doesn't that indicate that they should be worn with the white tops by default?

     

     

    The social media person is just reporting the decision and probably feels the need to hype it up in some way. I don't think whoever posted this is directly involved with the uniform choices.

     

    I remember in 2019 the Eagles twitter page threw a parade for the return of the green pants after a multi-year hiatus as though the team wasn't allowed to wear them.

    Potentially unpopular take, but even as a uniform detail enthusiast, I find these reveal tweets absolutely cringey and just stupid. What other league in the world tweets out "here's what color our helmet, pants and SOCKS will be next weekend." I miss the days when you found out what teams were wearing when they ran out onto the field on Sunday/Monday. Throwback announcements once or twice a year are fine but these "helmet -- jersey -- pants -- socks" detail announcements make my eyes roll further back in my head than human anatomy allows.

    I used to enjoy the mystery too, but in today’s NFL I’d rather know ahead of time if a matchup will look good or terrible rather than turning on my screen to see a bunch of white unitards without any advanced notice.

     

    But I agree the posts are pretty cringeworthy most of the time. I would say the ability to give feedback is a plus, but too many people on there have horrendous taste that it does more harm than good.

    Is it just me or does Buffalo change their uniform combo every time they lose  

    Actually yes.


    Blue jersey combos:

    Wk 1 lost in all-blue

    Wk 2 won in blue/white

    Wk 4 won in blue/white

    Wk 5 lost in blue/white

    Wk 8 won in all-blue

    Wk 10 lost in all-blue

    Wk 11 won in blue-white

     

    White jersey combos:

    Wk 3 won in all-white

    Wk 7 lost in all-white

    Wk 9 lost in white/blue

    Wk 12 lost in all-white

    Wk 14 TBD in white/blue

     

    So following this pattern, blue/white will be worn next week against Dallas, unless they wear Color Rush again. And then the result of this weekend’s game at KC will determine the pant color for their Saturday night Week 16 game at the Chargers.

  4. At this point I think it’s clear Arizona is committed to their atrocious mono combos for the foreseeable future. Maybe late next season they finally try something different.

     

    Chargers in white pants is disappointing. Yellow pants should be an easy choice when the home team is in white helmets and pants.

     

    Commanders again sticking with the mono combo. I don’t get it.

    No kidding. I get excited about watching TNF now because it's the only time when I am watching the NFL that my 65" 4K TV gets to strut its stuff. The quality of FOX and CBS broadcasts (unless you're getting their flagship game) is horrendous. 

    At least CBS is 1080. I highly recommend using the FOX app for those games. The quality is notably better than on regular cable.

    The Bucs are a white-at-home team, it's not a temperature thing

    Not entirely. They did wear red vs. Philly for that Monday evening kickoff in September. They also chose to wear red in Germany last year and have worn red for most prime time games, which would indicate that to some degree it is a heat thing.

     

    The last time they wore red at home for a 1pm game though was 2020 Week 14 against Minnesota.
