    The organization is a circus owned by noteworthy ass-clown Daniel Snyder. Getting the helmet right was incidental, something you wouldn’t expect but can shrug off as a broken clock being right twice a day. The chances of getting anything else right along with it border on statistical insignificance. 

    IIRC, Dan had very little say in the design process. It was mainly his wife and HC Rivera

    Adding this because it's a helpful visual:

    Nice gimmick where they have two distinct uniform sets, even though the Classic and Color Rush are under two separate uniform programs.

     

    This whole Nike classification deal is weird. Also note that it's "Blue" and "White," but not "Home" and "Road." As someone who has never gotten over "Icon," "Association," "Statement," and "Earned," this looks like bad things ahead for the NFL :(

    It’s helpful because it helps show how out of place the white uniform is compared to the rest of the uniforms

    Athletes gambling on the sport they play is a whole different can of worms. It brings into question the legitimacy of the on-field product, and sports leagues simply cannot allow that to happen. 

     

    Watson is a complete POS and deserves at least a year suspension in my opinion, but that doesn't mean Calvin Ridley should get a lesser punishment. 

    I’m not saying Ridley should get a lesser punishment. It just baffles me that Watson only gets a slap on the wrist.

    The Rams have four basic colors: yellow, blue, white, bone.

    The Chargers have five basic colors: yellow, white, light blue, medium blue and dark blue (and I'm not sure if the yellow changes).

     

    The Rams will always be blue, white and yellow; sometimes bone (which is being phased out).

    The Chargers will always be white, yellow, and one of three shades of blue, but none of those blues at the same time.

     

    Ipso facto, the Rams are simpler.

     

    Rams-

    Blue-Blue

    Blue-Bone

    Blue-Yellow

    White-Blue

    White-Yellow

    Bone-Bone

    Bone-Blue

    Bone-Yellow

     

    Theoretically: White-Bone*

     

    9* total combinations

     

    Chargers-

    P Blue-Yellow

    P Blue-White

    White-Yellow

    White-White

    R Blue-R Blue

    N Blue-N Blue

     

    6 total combinations

     

    My point is, the Chargers alternates cannot be manipulated into the regular home and away and they only see the field twice a season (once each). On the other side, the Rams alternate, whether it’s white or bone, CAN be manipulated into the regular set at will.

     

    Bottom line is, both teams utilize blue and yellow damn near beautifully. However, you’d have a better idea what the Chargers will wear week to week compared to the Rams.


     

  5. This Rams-Chargers discussion is perplexing because the latter has such a basic uniform throughout the set.

     

    @DG_ThenNowForever “You never know which palette you’re going to get.”  doesn’t make any sense when they have two regular set of pants (white & yellow). Due to the nature of the the primary [powder] blue, the alt pants and jerseys cannot be worn outside of their regular status. You’d know exactly what you’d get with the Chargers. It’s blue and yellow. Just like the Rams have done with their set now.

    I agree, for some reason. It works very differently from how an NFL uniform is supposed to and they probably shouldn’t have attempted it in the first place, but something about the colors here works for me. Any other presentation of the bone jersey that isnt with both bone pants and blue socks is utter garbage.

    I didn’t mind this look. However, it was unusually less appealing than bone-bone-blue
