Yeah, that was my point. When people think of the Arizona Cardinals, I doubt they think of the mountainous northern portion of Arizona. They think of Phoenix, which is the last place I'd ever expect it to snow.

"Snow Day in Arizona" I don't even know what to say. Do they hear themselves?

Off-white works on throwback or fauxback uniforms because it gives off the appearance of age. The looks that those uniforms are "throwing back" to were originally designed with regular white, but whether through age or material limitations, the physical sweaters from that time period appear off-white to us now. It's a fun complementary color or alternate color, but I don't want it to become a primary look.

Some other EDGE disasters that I would put at the bottom of the barrel (geez 2007-08 was trash): (This was technically introduced the year before, but you can't tell me this wasn't designed for the EDGE template) How to ruin a classic (darken the blue, introduce front numbers, add in unnecessary grey): The worst of the three jerseys in this template (the other two were OTT and TB) because of the khaki "Vegas gold." Every game that featured the Penguins in these uniforms looked washed out. Just because they raised the Cup twice doesn't make them better:

I think we'll all be able to agree that this is a bad monchrome look:

I think @DCarp1231 had a typo on the original post. I'm pretty sure what you just typed is what he meant.

I don't remember it (I was six at the time of that Super Bowl). What happened?

I feel like the NFL would veto a blue vs green color vs color pretty quickly. Then again, they did give the ok for powder blue vs navy blue . . .

Seriously, Jerryworld seems like the NFL's wet dream of a Super Bowl host. Over 100k capacity, huge market with a huge fanbase, indoor stadium. Plus Jerry Jones is one of the more influential owners in the NFL. Wonder why he hasn't forced their hand on this yet. (To be clear, the Cowboys, but a Super Bowl at Jerryworld would make sense for the NFL)

New Orleans as well, or is the Superdome too old now?

Not the biggest fan of the boneRam, but I'm still annoyed that they passed over it for the Super Bowl field for their other (horrible) logo:

I also watch a lot more hockey than I do any other sport, but I have different tastes for different sports. In hockey, all one color works because there's plenty of design elements to break up all the color, as well as how well it contrasts with a white ice surface. In football, though, the fact of the matter is that there's less uniform to work with (shorter sleeves), and striped socks are all but extinct apart from throwbacks, especially when it comes to wearing all one color. In regards to your last sentence, I don't think monochrome NFL uniforms are designed well at all (or, if they are, the team decides to wear the uniform in a way that hinders that design).

Absolutely gorgeous game. Too bad the quality of play didn't come close to matching the quality of the uniforms. To me that's the most tolerable of the color rush sets, because of the giant yellow stripe on the pants that is so cartoonishly wide that there's no conceivable way to call it a black leggings look.

The issue is that it's not visible unless you really look for it. The pattern is a little too subtle imo, and the jersey just looks way too plain and way too traditional for a team called the Nashville Predators that began play in the late 90s.

Out of the three looks that you listed, the only one that looks remotely good is the white on yellow that they wore in the Super Bowl. The other two are two of the worst looks in the new set (all bone with bone socks is the worst by a mile). The only way I can find this set tolerable is if the Rams stick to only ever wearing blue over yellow and white over yellow, with the occasional white over blue if contrast is needed. Burn all bone uniform elements.

Raiders Bengals Steelers Broncos Giants Browns Falcons Packers Jets Chiefs Titans 49ers Rams Bills Ravens Eagles I feel like almost all of these could go either way. You never know these days with the NFL.

This one? This is way too plain for the Nashville Predators. I love traditional uniform designs and single-color designs such as the Wings and Leafs are classics, but this jersey doesn't have much personality at all. It's the way too traditional jersey design that every expansion team releases at some point (Winter Classics notwithstanding), and it never really works. For a few examples: The Ducks: The Coyotes: The Panthers: The Hurricanes: The Sharks: I'd even argue the Lightning's current uniforms fit into this category, there's a reason that look was nicknamed the Maple Wings. But it's gonna be the one look out of this bunch that stands the test of time because the Lightning turned into a dynasty in them.

It's not my favorite, it's probably the weakest look among the recent throwback trend, precisely because of the socks. I know the white striped socks are historically accurate, but I find this look to be very unbalanced. The main reason I don't like when the socks and pants are the same color is because it looks like the player's just wearing one long pair of leggings, even if there's stripes. I thought that Matthew Judon massively improved the look by wearing red socks: The balance of color is greatly improved with the red socks: White helmet and pants, red jersey and socks.

I think they said he would be exempt, yeah. Smart by him, I just don't like what this contract means for the future of baseball. I'm all for players getting the bag, but this is just ridiculous.

Farhan Zaidi to Giants fans:

Vikings in white on white with purple socks looks good because it was the primary road look for decades and decades. The purple pants are decent (again, I'm not thrilled about the fact that they're always paired with purple socks), but white on white with purple socks is their true road look. If the Vikings want to wear purple pants, they should wear them with striped white socks that match the sleeve striping.

The reason it needs contrasting socks is because the pants color should never match the socks color. No exceptions.

And I'd take the throwbacks over both.

Yeah, the previous Reebok uniforms might've been a little overdesigned, but the little spots of navy on the jersey just above the logo on the front and the names on the back made a huge difference

I will say, even though I know the current equipment is a lot safer and more effective, something about those huge pads in the 70s and 80s made the players (especially hard-hitting defenders) look TERRIFYING.
