  1. I don't like Monday playoff games since it screws with the Divisional Round schedule a week later. Traditionally, the one seeds play on Saturday to give them an extra day of rest if they make the conference championship. But obviously they can't have a team play on a Monday and then on a Saturday, so if the Cowboys and Lions both win, the winner of Eagles/Bucs will play the Niners on Sunday instead of Saturday. Same thing if the Steelers win and force the Ravens to play on Sunday.

    The Freezer Bowl was played before the 2001 wind chill recalculation, the same conditions would be -32 today.

    So what you're saying is we're going to essentially see another Freezer Bowl tonight. Got it.

     

    Wonder what tonight's super cold game nickname will be.

    The undershirt not being tucked in, no sock matching,  and the pants down to mid thigh are my biggest pet peeves at the moment.  It's just an awful look all the way around.  

     

    These looks are trendy right now. Until that's not the case, it'll be impossible to get rid of them (I also hate how it looks, I get it).

    What was wrong with this?  Not saying it's perfect but it's miles better than what they're using.

    I wonder how it would look on a jersey without the "Tampa Bay" lettering. I always found that unnecessary.

    While we're at it, can we make sure undershirts don't hang out and down past the players butts?  

     

    We can't really. Basically every player in the entire league does this.

    I wonder if conditions at the Meadowlands or Cincinnati would be better enough to host the Bills game if it has to be moved.

     

    I'd prefer not to have a neutral-site playoff game, thanks. I remember hearing speculation that the NFL was going to use last year's AFCCG as a test for more neutral-site conference championships in the future if it ended up being Bills/Chiefs. The Bengals beating the Bills ended up canceling those plans.

    Commanders wore the icy white look waaaay too much this season but they didn't wear their white socks and white pants with their color jerseys on top like those other teams you mentioned. 

     

    They showed a shocking amount of restraint in Year 1 of the new set, mostly sticking to burgundy/burgundy/white/burgundy at home and burgundy/white/burgundy/white on the road. They then turned around this year and did exactly what we all feared they'd do the first time around. The Commies' uniforms are horrible, but they're so much more tolerable in proper uniform combos. When worn as mono combos, we all really get to marinate in how badly they were designed.

    if they stay with navy blue, then it's already a god awful trainwreck of a uniform

     

    I will never forgive the 90s for shoehorning navy blue into nearly every team that had blue in their color scheme.

    The Rams special teams scare me. They'll find a way to blow it vs DET (a blocked kick, a return score, points left on the field)

     

    Rams have a suspect kicking game, to put it lightly. Brett Maher wouldn't fill me with confidence, especially after they tried to move on from him earlier this season only to bring him back right before the playoffs. Should've kept Matt Gay.

    All the instances of black touching blue muddy things up a bit too much.  If you got rid of the yoke and extended black all the way to the cuff on the sleeve stripes you'd have something.  The 2007-2011 logo would be a good fit for that template. 

     

    Think it would work better with the 90s electric blue. The contrast between black and blue would be better, at least.
