  1. Funny enough, it's the sane naming scheme as Nike's NFL jerseys. Game, Limited, and Elite. On the addition of a middle-level retail jersey, interesting. Afaik, that's never been a thing in Baseball, just an NFL thing with Replica, Premiere, and Authentic, which became Game, Limited, and Elite when Nike took over in 2012. Does Nike have something against the word "Replica" at all?
  2. The Seahawks scrapped their Grey jersey and the Titans scrapped their Columbia Blue jersey when they introduced their Throwbacks, so both of those predictions can't happen.
  3. Saw this on YouTube. Really good video. With over 266K views and 7.7K likes, it seems like a lot of folks have, or are being swayed, to our side of NFL uniform discourse. The comments are real good too in how much support they have for the video. The creator really knows their stuff like us, and even mentions Uni-Watch and The GUD too.
  4. They're both technically Color Rushes, and the rules for Color Rush said that Throwback colors could be used.
  5. It's that time of the year everyone! Another year of uniform speculation, teases and announcements is about to be upon us. Based on what's been announced and stated, we should be having three uniform changes upon us this spring. The Houston Texans The Detroit Lions and... The Denver Broncos The New York Jets have also reached the end of the "five-year rule" and are now also eligible for a redesign, but there's been no word on if that's gonna happen. And it also sadly appears that the Tennessee Titans won't be changing, entering year SEVEN with their hideous clownsuits.
  6. Shoulda just brought back the Blue Helmets for the Throwback, instead of wasting their Alt Helmet spot on the pointless and stupid Black Helmet.
  7. The San Diego Chargers wore their Powder Blue alternate jersey in the 2008 Playoffs, after getting permission from the NFL. I believe this is the only other time it's happened besides the 1994 49ers and 2021 Rams. The 2018 Rams Throwback was their primary uniform of that doesn't count.
  8. The Pants logo was removed from all of their pants as a consequence of switching from the old Reebok template to the Nike Vapor Untouchable template in 2019, after David Tepper took over the team.
  9. A few players on the 49ers, at least Aiyuk and Jennings on the Offense, are wearing Red leggings instead of White leggings, and look so much better than the rest of their teammates.
  10. I love JJ, he's a great Wide Receiver and hope he's healthy, but his Socks/Leggings choices aren't the best. He always wears White Leggings, even when the rest of the team has Purple on. He was the only player wearing White Leggings during the Week 1 Throwback game when everyone else had the traditional Half-Purple/Half-White Socks, for instance.
  11. Yeah, I watched that docuseries too. And as a Vikings fan, I knew a lot of what was said in it, but it was still fascinating. On topic of the discussion, unfortunately, the "uniformity" part of "uniform" is non-existent now.
  12. Vikings confirm another "Winter Whiteout" for the Week 16 Home Game versus the Detroit Lions. I'm guessing this unfortunately means White Leggings again as they did last year. https://www.vikings.com/winter-whiteout Trust me, when they wear Purple Socks, I LOVE the White-on-White look. The White Socks/Leggings just ruin the look. And TBH, if they HAD to make a Whiteout game a new tradition, it would be the perfect excuse for a White Throwback to be added into the rotation to go along with the Purple Throwback. Also, it would be a great reason to kill off their Color Rush.
  13. Well, looking at things positively, the players hate the tights too, but for the wrong reason, though. Is it that hard to wear Crew or Knee-High socks? Also, Lions confirm Throwbacks.
  14. ESPN, ABC, and FOX has a period from the 90s to the mid-late 2000s where many parts of graphics packages, and the score bugs, would use helmet logos for teams rather than the actual primary logos. You could tell because the Vikings and Rams would have their horn, Eagles would have their wing, Bengals their stripes, and the Browns would either be an orange blob, or their helmet stripes, depending on the network or graphics package era. I feel like the Vikings, Eagles, and Rams helmet logos work much better in application for score bugs than their primary logos due, thanks to being less tall and more wide.
