Yes. The Steelers too.

 

Bears- Grey

Raiders- Black

Cowboys- Navy Blue

Steelers- Grey

 

I really don't understand why some people want the Raiders to have a black facemask. The Raiders should never mess with their look, but if they have to, all they should ever do is have black pants for an all black alternate but even that feels like it's going too far. Just leave it alone.

Cowboys at Chiefs in 2009. Both teams wore throwbacks creating an NFL vs. AFL throwback game between the 1960 Dallas Texans and the 1960 Dallas Cowboys. It's the only time the Cowboys ever wore throwbacks on the road.

Watch it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5izl4DZW2ZE

Also another Cowboys game is one on Thanksgiving 2001 against the Broncos. After only 5 years, the Broncos wore the Orange Crush uniforms as a throwback.

Here's a pointless fact: The Cowboys actually wore the white double star jersey in a Preseason game against the Broncos in 1995 so this wasn't the only time the Double Star and Orange Crush faced off.

Looks as though 2K might have all the Nike jerseys since 2017 in this year's game - usually the Nike Classics and Cities stay with each year's game. That'd be my guess as to why fans are wearing Classics from 2017-19 (Heat, Suns).

Just played the Xbox One version and this doesn't seem to be the case.

I miss the sports specialties script hats!!!  companies have tried to recreate them but can't get the font right.

I have a good replica of a Los Angeles Raiders hat like this that I bought on Amazon once. It was an official NFL product too. They don't do it like that anymore for some reason, I'm assuming whoever owns the Sports Specialties stuff told them to not get so close to the design.

The one Gruden wears now isn't even close to the classic font, it's more of an inspiration.

The Raptors and Knicks played each other on November 1, 1996 and wore throwback uniforms for the 50th Anniversary of the NBA. They will play each other again on November 1st in 2021 for the 75th Anniversary. I can't help but think that was intentional.

Bad Boys Pistons uni meets T-Mac Magic uni on a Pistons Teal era court and Bison Dele was still a Brian Williams.

So let me get this straight, the Pistons changed from the Bad Boys uniforms in 1996 then proceeded to wear them again in 1999? I looked it up and it was "Bad Boys Reunion Night" in the arena. Why wear something you just got rid of? All that's gonna do is annoy the fans.

Saw this on Reddit and Twitter but have no idea of the source. It matches the leak from months ago. A mashup of all Lakers eras.

The only thing that's completely off is that there's no diamond Nike logo or diamond NBA logo so it may be a mockup.

Last year when there were 8 uniform changes coming out it made Madden worth getting, add to the fact that there would be two new stadiums; Sofi Stadium and Allegiant Stadium. This year there are many uniform changes, but most of them are throwbacks being added to teams. The Bengals are the only team with a new overall uniform. The Jaguars made the switch from black to teal as the primary color. The Giants added white pants with red stripes to compliment the road jersey. 

 

Would it be better to wait for Madden 23? Washington will get a new name and the Rams will get their 4th uniform set. Those are the changes for when the 2022 season comes around, and other changes will probably come along the way. If I get Madden 22, I'll buy it when the price drops.

 

I get Madden every year mostly because of changes like this, I just can't help it when it comes to that stuff. I mean I enjoy the games because I guess I'm simple but yeah.

Man, I was hoping the Giants actually went through with new white pants at home but oh well. I love the idea of blue dominant home and red dominant away, it's an interesting quirk.

Also, I find it really funny that these white pants were probably brought in just so that they could have a stupid 10th Anniversary "throwback" uniform.  HOW THE HELL ARE YOU GONNA HAVE A THROWBACK TO SOMETHING YOU WORE A YEAR AGO?!

The Giants are moving to northwestern stripe pants for home and away? Interesting. I'll have to see in in action before I come to a full conclusion of what I think but just from that image it looks pretty nice on the away uniform.

If they really do have blue stripes on the home white pants then I don't think that will look good but we will see.

Still Spalding ball.  Photoshop?

Yes, it's a photoshop. We won't see Russ in a Lakers jersey for real until like September or October when they do media/press stuff like usual.

Very interesting to see these listed as sideline hats.

The pattern that goes from the crown to the bill is one of the worst elements I've ever seen from new era. On some of the hat models it doesn't even line up correctly. Not sure what look they were going for here...looks like the embroidery machine got jammed.

It's nothing new. Reebok had been doing weird hat designs for years back in the early aughts. I actually had one and it actually was my favorite hat for awhile.

Makes sense that the Celtics, Knicks and Warriors get throwbacks for the 75th Anniversary. They did it for the 50th Anniversary too in 1996-97.

I find it pretty funny that the Celtics are throwing back to when they wore sleeves in 1946 but the sleeved uniforms no longer exist. If there was ONE time and I mean only ONE TIME for that dumb idea to return then this would have been it.

It's actually a fauxback as the correct helmet would have been white and didn't have a facemask. Therefore, I believe a white facemask would have looked better since they can't wear the white helmet until next year. 

 

A white facemask would have made no sense for that helmet design or the reason for the uniform in general. 

Nothing upsets me more when a team makes a throwback but it ends up being some totally new thing like what Washington did. If you can't find a way to do some form of throwback then why even bother? If the helmet and the jersey have to be from different years that's fine, but it's atleast doing something that is throwing back to history. Thankfully, 2021 will be the last time the mismatching will stop.

Have a feeling this won't be accepted by many on this board lol

I have always thought that people on this board have a hard time accepting that alot of teams just don't want to do something including myself sometimes.

It's like why wouldn't you want to put 3 stripes on your jersey? The 49ers have had that for decades. They can't be that stupid right? Oh well.

The Colts have a new horse logo?!

The Olympics finally have a new graphics package after what felt like an eternity. Here's what we got during Women's Soccer. It's pretty nice.

I don't mind the Bucks black jersey because it's been their alternate jersey for the last 5 years. It's still a main part of the brand as a result, so even if it doesn't look that great, it atleast makes sense.

They should be called the Washington I'M SICK OF THIS TOPIC SO MUCH IT IS EXTREMELY ANNOYING PLEASE CHANGE THE TEAM NAME ALREADY SO WE CAN ALL MOVE ON WITH ON OUR LIVES AND LIVE IN PEACE PLEASE GOD I BEG YOU.

It's a little long but I think it could work.

The Rams new white jersey is exactly what it should have been from the start.

It seems obvious to me that somewhere in the creative process, the Rams decided to switch the bone uniform to being the away uniform. The uniform alignment is totally backwards. It looks like an alternate jersey while the new white jersey looks alot like the home jersey and evokes alot of what the Rams fans wanted in the first place. Someone in the organization must have made the call to switch them.

This whole thing is very boneheaded. I'm sorry, I can't resist.
