...and numbers, which I just KNEW they were going to ruin by changing to navy on the white jersey...so predictable, same as Falcons years ago (going from red to black). Edit: Jax Jags, too (multiple times), from teal/gold/black to (primarily) black — yuck! Surely, there are some other franchises that Nike has modified for the worse in terms of removing color for dullness instead, yet I do not wish to depress myself thinking of them and/or researching at the moment.

Nah, they also inexplicably skipped wearing their 'ColoRush' uniforms in 2020, too — even after starting out with an undefeated 4–0 record when wearing them from 2016–2019 — but then they returned for both the 2021 & 2022 seasons (two close & inexcusably stupid, costly coaching decisions, which caused those losses vs. GB & vs. BUF), respectively. In fact, the same thing happened after they debuted the beautiful black jersey with purple pants uniform in 2018. For no apparent reason, it vanished for the next two years — despite a monumental ending in the waning moments of a division-sealing victory via C.J. Mosley, which broke a streak of narrowly missing out on the playoffs over the previous three seasons. However, that one has been worn once per year during the last three consecutive seasons. Now, it too is an undefeated 4–0, just like the 'CR' formerly was following its first four appearances on field. Further worth mentioning is the fact that only in the 2018 & 2021 seasons have the Ravens actually trotted out in all ten of their currently existent mix-and-match uniform combinations. For instance, besides no 'CR' last season, we additionally have not seen my least favorite look of the entire bunch — save for the recent ruining of the white jersey & white pants combo by pairing it with plain white socks/tights instead of black — for a couple of years. That which I am referring to would be the black jersey with white pants combo. I personally prefer it that way (shelved), since I feel that both other black combos are better, plus for whatever reason the black on white had become a frequent loser in recent seasons.

As a Ravens fan, can we get some 2001 OT INT Mike Brown magic from the Bears vs. the Browns this weekend? My apologies to Joe Flacco, but now that he has finally reached that elusive milestone of 100 wins, he can lose out for all I care! Additionally, may our brothers in purple take care of business against the 'Jungle Bung(ho)les', plus here's hoping for a former Baltimore team to send PIT packing with a third consecutive loss! Also, bug-eyed / 'BulgEyed' Tomlin & his stupid streak of never having a losing season constantly being mentioned ad nauseam gets on my nerves, as does the fact that out of six current AFC teams with a 7–6 record, PIT just so happens to have the lead over every single one at the moment!

@canzman Hey-lo there, sir. Any chance you can possibly make a correction to the Week 12 Ravens uniform image? After all, they did wear white socks as a team for the first time ever with the white jersey/purple pants look. The reason I ask is because I like to save the different combos (by season) that you create to a special file folder. I don't post them anywhere — well may have once or twice in the past (including properly crediting you as creator) — but rather just keep them for my own personal viewing purposes & for the sake of memories. However, if I ever did for some reason, then you would of course be rightfully credited for your stellar work. Obviously, this year is more important than most previous ones in the past, due to the long overdue Ravens template change from Nike 'Speed Machine' to 'F.U.S.E.', so it'd be nice to have each various combination that was actually worn throughout 2023-2024. Plus, your stuff is way better than, say, GUD's depictions, for instance, what with the attention to minor/minute/minuscule details! If not, it is no biggie. Perhaps I can try as a novice to fill in via MS Paint (LOL). On the other hand, if you were to make the modification, then I thank you in advance, plus just generally speaking I genuinely do greatly appreciate with utmost gratitude all of your perennial efforts!

You forgot the New England Patriots, who also didn't & don't have stripes down the center of their (sparkly / speckled) silver helmets.

Traditional logo be damned, in general, they should also already reverse both his hat & hair colors, respectively. The stiff-arming elf normally has a brown hat + orange hair, whereas the standing elf (much like the real life version of 'Brownie' the mascot) has an orange hat + brown hair. Not only would an orange hat match the actual aforementioned mascot, but it would also make much more sense to depict the elf wearing an orange hat just like the color of the players' "hats" (helmets).

Unfortunately, the Ravens are going with the white jersey / black pants combo again.

That would certainly be better in tune with the snow-capped mountain theme, including more blue — albeit navy, rather than a more aptly fitting royal hue — as sky & a twinkling sparkle of orange sunlight sprinkled amid the intermingled (wintry) mix.

The Rocky Mountains are flat? Then I suppose it was indeed true "That John Denver sure [was] full of s.h.i.t, man!" Are you sure you didn't take a wrong turn -at Albuquerque & head toward Nebraska instead of Colorado?

I prefer Air Bud: Golden Receiver. Let's all go raid Joey Galloway's garbage can(s) out on the sidewalk in front of his home during Seattle's local neighborhood trash pickup day(s) in scavenging hopes to discover discarded food, such as orange peels — which will inevitably give us magical athletic powers transferred via his DNA, of course!

One game per season is not a big deal, especially considering how their 'Color Rush' uniforms are already somewhat similar as it is (MIN lacking any white details below the neck being the main difference). Both teams do not utilize a more color-coordinated helmet, however, and both feel out of place with the rest of said alternate uniforms — especially the Vikings' white horn decal. The Vikings also do not wear gold face masks. For whatever silly reason, they continue to go with black instead of purple or any other logical color that would seemingly make more sense.

'BALternate' helmet for 'ColoRush' coordination — either Riddell fashion release from over the years works, such as 2017 'Blaze' (satin purple finish helmet shell + metallic gold face mask) or more recent 'Flash' (glossy purple finish helmet shell + metallic gold face mask). Personally, I probably prefer the satin, since it would seemingly better match modern-day, matte-style, Nike uniform (jerseys/pants) fabrics. 'Blaze' (Satin): 'Flash' (Gloss):

Someone on Reddit actually already thought of this, but for 'R0QUAN SMITH' of the Baltimore Ravens, who has changed from #18 to #0. I added the Metallic Gold box in the first image for emphasis on 'Ro' aka 'R0'. Roquan can now lay claim to being both the best-ever #18 — alas, fellow 'Flock' fanatics of our favorite professional football franchise can finally cross out the name of Elvis Grbac, forever removing him off of this proverbial jersey numbers list — and (de facto) #0, respectively, in franchise history. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Funny, as a small child, I used to think it was another horse's tail in front of the bucking bronco, which was about to hit said equine smack dab directly in its snout/mouth.

I always just assumed it was due to their font serifs pointing backwards as a supposed nod to the state shape.

Just an FYI: I wasn't the one who responded "Yikes" to both silver & gold being used, just quoted someone else saying that with my own jocular link to a Christmas song called 'Silver and Gold'.

Too bad they refuse to wear black socks — or even a (matching) gold helmet as of this season — with the alternate white throwback uniforms!

Good, but the gold needs to be on the inside of the black to better match the jersey numbers (just like the gold of the early day Jax Jags, or similar to the role orange plays in the striping pattern of the former & current day Bucs), especially in cases of wearing same color pants as jersey. For instance, picture these with the dual hip gold B's: Also, on an additional note / tangent, they really need to fix that "Front-Facin' Raven" (granted, in a much better, less squeezed-together, more professionally reworked way than I have). Here's what I mean:
