Everything about the Bills' striping is wildly inconsistent .

Some info from The Athletic's former Bengals guy:

Just give us the Color Rush uniforms but with orange instead of white stripes and be done with it, please.

Just announced by the team:

Now if the Argos fix the uniforms, they could easily have the best set in the league.

The video they put on Twitter has way too much purple in it for there not to be a purple version of this. I dunno what's going on with that unlisted YouTube video, but that can't be the set. Maybe just what they will continue to sell until the future alternates are officially unveiled?

We knew what to expect and yet somehow this sucks way more than I could have imagined.

Considering they didn't even bother photoshopping out what is clearly a soccer net, I feel like some of the weirdness about inconsistent pants, cuff, and socks striping might just be sloppy/rushed photoshopping mistakes.

Oh nooooo this feels like Kraken

Elks is just such a slam dunk that I will be stunned if they don't use it.

Have always felt the Ravens are a team that are just a few tiny tweaks away from pretty close to timeless. Get the B out of the logo. Kill those dumb helmet stripes. Get stripes on the black pants. Wear purple socks with the black pants. That's about all they need. The number font and secondary logo aren't great, but I can live with them. The unfortunate reality is that if/when the Ravens do a redesign, they are sure to go way overboard with changes.

There's so much blatantly and offensively awful about these that I feel like we aren't spending enough time noticing the subtle and awful parts. Like why oh WHY do the shoulder stripes on the two jerseys differ???

Imagine publicly declaring that you like this.

Titans should be in here, too.

I know leaks like this are almost always legit, but isn't it a little sketchy that the 2 photos of the player facing us are the same picture?

In disbelief at how awful those chest (shoulder?) patches are.

Am I crazy for preferring the old number font and nameplate font? Maybe I just got too used to them. To me the new font has the feel of a video game that just makes all the team uniforms recolors of the same generic design.

This one is even weirder. It's some combo of throwback and current elements, plus he's wearing a retired number

Not sure if I'm allowed to do this here, but I felt like I had to drop this link. This has to be the single worst article I've ever seen written about NFL uniforms. 5 NFL teams that could use a uniform makeover https://fansided.com/2020/04/22/new-nfl-uniforms-giants-cowboys/ Among the highlights, the writer: - Calls the Giants' old red alternates their road uniforms - Says the Cowboys wear blue at home - Says the Ravens' "color schemes have remained very similar throughout their history" (???) - Says the Jaguars wear "light blue"

Had some time to digest these and I'm just not feeling that number font in the slightest. Having to see it on all the helmets only makes it worse. Everything else is pretty great. Will be even better when they add a navy helmet next season.

Not to derail this discussion further into Bengals talk (well actually kinda to do exactly that, I guess), but I think what appeals about their Color Rush set is that they are such an effective conduit to see how good the Bengals could look if they just simplified their way-too-busy homes and roads. Obviously there are issues with them - lack of color being the major and obvious one - but they present an appealing template. Just add orange to the striping parts and they aren't far from great. Actually I guess that's kinda what the Patriots tried to do today.

I didn't think I would, but I truly do miss their kinda crappy custom number font on these.

Some of those combos look way too much like the Bills

They got the socks right! This is about the best we could have hoped for.

Of course they will.
