    I think Seahawks will wear white/grey this week. They have worn that combo for the last 2 years against blue teams so hopefully that trend continues otherwise this game is going to look like a mess with the chargers in all navy and the Seahawks in white/navy.

    I still think the chargers should have white pants with that bolt colorway to balance the uniform.

    Oh I forgot this thread is filled with boring purist who don't want to deviate from their 1980's NBA aesthetics from, when the time their uncles use to take them to see 1985 NBA eating cracker jack and bubble gum. Its too black, its too bold, its too loud. Its a 3rd alternate kit, Jesus. 

     

    Blah blah blah

     

    It's 2022, get with the times. 

     

    This isnt boring MLB, this is NBA the most forward thinking of the big 4 leagues in North America. Im out

    Sure. But your last sentence isn't what you said, unless you think the Niners all black, Packers all green, or Falcons current uniform are tradional.

     

    Feel free to get mad when someone asks for clarification. I don't care.

    I'm just a guy that love uniform aesthetics like everyone on here. This isn't even a part of my life though, so please don't assume my personal feelings are tied to some sports  clothing.

    Some of you guys think others take this online stuff seriously.  Why in hell would I be mad? Lol. If you go back and read, that is what I said. I said if the Falcons had SF all black uni, which is traditional as opposed to the falcons current uni, then it would be much more likeable. But as you stated, it's too much black for SF so it looks "terrible ". See where I'm going?

    Thanks. Now I can disagree on the substance.

     

    Both the Jets and Falcons have elements that look out of place. The Jets have those spiky things that would work better with their 1978 logo, not one that is without angles. They also have the (IMO) random inclusion of black elements so that they can introduce their black uniform.  The Falcons have a chrome facemask where the only other chrome is a small amount in the logo. They use an overly large nickname on the jersey. 

     

    As to the wrong color balance for SF? That's simply the wrong color. I don't believe their black uniforms would have been so hated if they were red or white (more representative of their team colors). 

    Great, you disagree. Now what? I love the Falcons uniforms when they have contrasting pants,  and no other swinging Johnson can tell me otherwise.  Live with it and move on. I do t give a damn about SF to be honest.  Just used them as an example of a traditional uniform that had too much of one color and not enough contrast.  My point is still valid... that even traditional uniforms with block number font and stripes can look bad .

    I'm not sure how those are related in your mind. Care to explain?

    1 - People generally seemed opposed to a team like Green Bay, Las Vegas or Chicago from participating in color rush as their uniforms are (again, generally) considered timeless or not to be tinkered with.

    2 - The Niners used a color that, while on their helmet, isn't really a team color.

     

    3 - I have no idea where you're going with the Falcons uniform.

    It's easy to be lost when you don't know the starting point.  I was alluding to a previous post about how even though the Falcons and Jets uniforms aren't traditional, they still have consistent elements that don't clash or look out of place. Clean and modern. The post also points out that even teams with universally loved uniforms can look bad with the wrong color balance and top/bottom combo.

    So much cleaner. The Falcons uniforms are not traditional, but they are a massive improvement over the generic piped out Reebok set they had before. New uniforms are simple and brand centric. You can't compare them with the Titans, which have a ton of flaws (logo on helmet has too many keylines, the dumb armpit inserts, the randomnness of the floating inserts on the pants). 

     

    Both the Falcons and Jets have good, contemporary uniforms -- the issues only come from when they wear combinations that don't look good, which is a mistake even teams with traditional uniforms can make.

    I remember people not wanting GreenBay to wear a green color rush uniform,  Those same people hated the 49ers all black uniform..but If it were a Falcons uniform, with a touch of white,  people would love it. Its so crazy how fickle people can be.

    Actually just seeing the Madden 23 Unis, and the return of the 80's Falcons and the 90's Colts, I'm already CRANKED!

    Always loved that 80s Falcons uniforms.  Born and raised here.  I love the black with red helmet, but the red 80s uni is just as beautiful

    Exactly.  I said it the day of the reveal, and I'll keep saying it, that the new uniforms are a huge improvement over the last set. The black over white is my favorite. And as I predicted in 2020, is now the default home option.  The white over black is also very clean. Simply put,  they aren't for everyone,  but nothing in this world is universally loved by all. They are very clean, and have  beautiful  color contrast and distribution

    I felt like farming for likes today, so here's yet another photoshop of what WAS should've done. They could even keep the black number outlines.

    Crazy thing is, that doesn't help. Change the numbers to solid burgundy, with gold outline.  The pants need some kind of stripe  to make the uniforms cohesive.  Their uniforms just look like three different prototypes  for a full set

    This reminds me of the first time Georgia wore black to look mean and tough against Alabama and the halftime score was 31-0 Tide. 

    You mean the 3rd time? We were 2-0 in them at that point. Blew out Auburn and curb stomped Hawaii.  So it was less gimmicky than something totally fresh and out of the blue.
