  1. Absolutely. Very underrated uniforms. But...I think I still prefer the Throwbacks.
  2. Same, especially since they changed the pants and fixed the green hue. Additional unpopular opinion - get rid of the shiny pants, make them flat silver-blue. I don't wanna see any more butt sweat.
  3. Jaguars looked perfect today. Wear teal pants with the black and white jerseys as the primary home and away. Sprinkle in a couple of games in black/black, and teal/black. They don't even need additional stripes with the color balance they had today.
  4. Agreed! Been a while since I've played, but my last Create-A-Team on NHL was all black and white, with gold only used sparingly as an outline color on the logos and numbers.
  5. I love when one color is used very minimally, or used on only some of the elements/equipment. I'm trying to think of whatever "rule" I have, because there are times that it doesn't work. Examples I like: - Gold outline on throwback Falcon helmet logo - Tan/gold pants on Harvard's otherwise all crimson and black set - Titans use of red - Steelers logo - Baltimore Ravens use of gold - Gray facemasks - Phillies' blue Probably more that I can't think of right now. But an example I hate is the Lions using a white outline on their logo and WCF patch when there's no other white on the home uniform. That doesn't strike me as an intentional quirk, it strikes me as a poor oversight in design.
  6. Yeah I swear people cling to these "rules" and they don't allow themselves to make exceptions. The Falcons don't have side panels. It's a thin stripe, and it looks good.
  7. You certainly ain't wrong. One of the best football uniforms of all time.
  8. The Atlanta Falcons unis are underrated. I truly don't see why people think they're so bad. It's like, "oh there's chrome, AUTOMATICALLY BAD." The chrome is tastefully done. The font is good. The unis are basic and inoffensive, with the one design element being a nice tie-in to their logo. "ATL" works for Atlanta. It cannot be judged the same way as something like "DET" for Detroit would be, for example. Just as Phoenix can get away with "PHX" and Philadelphia can get away with "Philly," Atlanta can use "ATL." The Falcons are a perfectly-restrained modern uniform.
  9. The Lions' (lack of) use of white is awful. If you're gonna go strictly blue/silver, do it. Take the white out of the logo and the WCF patch. It looks so out of place and just looks like a rookie-level oversight. But the real solution, as said earlier, is to remove that stupid darker gray, and make the numbers white with a silver outline. That would do wonders for their home set.
  10. God forbid someone has a different opinion!
  11. I wish they’d keep a red-white-red stripe pattern throughout the set to mimic the flag and logo. The red-blue-red always looks off to me.
  12. Not a big fan of white over blue, but I dig the all-blue for 1 home game a year.
  13. Michigan has the best uniforms in the country. love that they’ve found out a good way for alternates that are just simple color swaps. Seems to be an unpopular opinion but I love the white pants with the away uniform. Not too maize-heavy, and the stripes mimic the back of the helmet nicely.
  14. Is this site practically unusable on mobile for anyone else? I get about 1/4 of the way down the page and it just absolutely stalls out and needs to reload. Literally doesn't happen with any other website or forum for me. Any advice? Mobile pop-up blockers?n I appreciate the free access to the boards, and I know ads are necessary, but in the past few months I straight up cannot even view this forum on my phone.
  15. Michigan wearing maize socks and accessories with their normal home uniforms. Meh.
  16. Yeah I mean, I don’t think they suck at all. I actually really like them. And just because I think they’re better than the old ones doesn’t mean I think the old ones suck either. So…yeah. Assumptions.
  17. That’s not at all what I’m saying…interesting interpretation.
  18. The new Falcons unis are 100000x better than the previous ones. They're simple and clean, but striking. The font is kinda whacky but I like it. It ties in with their logo and branding well. Also, ATL doesn't bother me at all. That's a common moniker for Atlanta. It's wayyy different than the Pistons using "DET," for example. I've always loved uniforms that display the locale and the mascot equally. The Falcons uni fully displays "Atlanta Falcons." The old one has the "Falcons" script but already has the falcon logo, so it just reads as Falcons Falcons to me.
  19. I hardly ever really notice the players' undershirts. Doesn't really bother me in most cases.
  20. Fully anticipating the Rams to bust out white pants this season.
  21. They really didn’t have to go to the polar opposite. Literally all they had to do was change the name and logo. Should’ve been the Redtails but Commanders is fine. Just change the name and logos, like the Guardians did.
  22. It’s truly mind-boggling. Such a simple aspect of design…who makes these decisions? How do you just randomly throw black trim on the white jersey when it’s found nowhere else in the main sets? Like……….what?
  23. Totally agreed. They've always just looked so cheap and unattractive.
