The Texans -- Texans, definitely have the OROY, Coach of the Year, and will probably be playing in the divisional round. Wow.

I believe that when you're a team with a unique color scheme -- Jaguars, Seahawks, Buccaneers, Dolphins, Chargers-- why eschew those colors? Why not embrace them? Let's hope this all-white nonsense goes the way of the Reebok piping.

Fair, but are the Dolphins really going to wear aqua socks with the white pants anymore? EDIT: The Dolphins wore aqua socks and white pants twice this season -- all-white head to toe SEVEN times. I don't trust 'em.

You know what, this is a pretty damn good uniform weekend. Cowboys vs. Packers -- classic. Bills vs. Steelers -- phenomenal. Tampa in red/pewter. Dolphins aqua pants. 49ers waiting in the wings. This could be a lot, a LOT worse.

Do we have a post hall of fame around here?

Are we not going to talk about how the jumpman logo is on that Broncos concept? Rendering the source totally unreliable? Did I miss something?

I prefer white helmets, when they look good -- Bills, Colts, Chargers all look superior with white helmets. (I know not everyone agree). Maybe I like the Jets better in green, but that's about it. But Denver? With a predominantly white logo? And no precedent? No thanks.

This cannot be overstated. That robo-horse is mostly white and would look incomprehensible on a white helmet. Even Elway can see that. Right?

You've seen the Commanders uniforms. So no.

Hot take (maybe): All-white from the pants down, paired with colored helmets and jerseys, looks EVEN WORSE than mono-white with white socks...Eagles, Texans, Vikings, Cowboys are the worst offenders. A football uniform on top, white tights on bottom. Not. Good.

The Panthers just need to break up with silver.

2024 Thoughts: --I'm excited for the Texans. Their identity isn't bad, just a little generic. The red helmet has made it more interesting and the possibility of adding Columbia blue is very intriguing. I bet they do this: HOME: White helmet, all-navy (state flag look) (traditional) AWAY: Predominantly red accents with Columbia and navy, all-white uniform (modern-traditional) ALT 1 - Red helmet, mono-red (bull look, modern) navy accents ALT 2 - Columbia () probably mono-blue Of course all of these will likely UNFORTUNATELY be mono but hopefully we get some mixing and matching along the way. This isn't what I WOULD do, just my prediction. --The Lions will just probably have yet another new set of Honolulu blue and silver uniforms, just yet ANOTHER version of the same thing they've done for 70 years. Maybe there'll be black, in which case, ugh, but I would almost prefer black to that AWFUL mono grey nonsense. Unless they're going back to the 80s-90s look, this isn't promising. --If the Broncos listen to their fans, they may actually get this right. Make the color rush the primary and build off of that. I HIGHLY doubt that they'll go back to the D logo after winning three rings with the robo-horse, but it'll probably stay as an alt or something. What I would REALLY like is the return of the drunken steed early sixties throwbacks. And we all know what they SHOULD do: bring it back to 1996, royal helmet and all. Unfortunately I doubt they'll be that savvy. --I haven't been shy about what the Falcons need to do: Modernize the 1966 uniforms, and make red road pants with the same gold/white/black striping. Keep an alternate black helmet and pants for the folks who are into that sort of thing, but it's clear what the fans want. Unfortunately we have to look at these superhero costumes for another year....

If Tampa wears red, I'll be thrilled, but profoundly shocked. If I were a Bucs fan I would be downright sick and bored of seeing those white jerseys. The Cowboys wear blue jerseys at home as often as the Bucs do their red ones.

https://www.houstonchronicle.com/texas-sports-nation/texans/article/houston-texans-new-uniforms-unveiled-oilers-blue-18588895.php More Texans news. It's either very interesting or foreboding...depending on your point of view... EDIT: My bad everyone...it's behind a paywall... https://uni-watch.com/2024/01/08/still-more-info-on-houston-texans-upcoming-uniforms-emerges/ instead

Those Cardinals uniforms would be head and shoulders above the previous set, if only they would mix and match. Alas... The 90's state flag white uniforms are so beloved...it's befuddling to think they ignored that direction in favor of mono-madness, shoehorning in silver, and a giant ARIZONA across the chest...

The Falcons got it right the first time, in 1966, but they didn't really have a bad uniform for a long time. Black helmets, red helmets, red jerseys, black jerseys -- the Falcons looked great right up until 2003 when the Reebok disaster struck. Atlanta is ripe for a Bills-style modernization of the '66 uniforms, which are extremely popular around here(I live an hour NW of Atlanta). There's a reason they wore them at home three times. Keep the modern logo, throw in a set of red pants with the gold/white/black stripes and call it a day.

The Cowboys like to wear the blue over white combo at home against non-division NFC opponents. I wouldn't be surprised if the "silver" pants come back this Sunday.

It was, unfortunately, always held by the Titans, because the NFL is super inconsistent on keeping together its legacy franchises.

I LOVE the silver helmet/pants Oilers. An awesome look for Houston in the "space age" and a team that plays in the Astrodome. Those three colors look so great together. I just happen to love the light blue helmets with white oil derrick a little bit more.

Texans uniform hints here.

So, so right.

The Cowboys and Lions have not gone white over silver-blue VS. Honolulu blue over silver since TWENTY SIXTEEN. Im hoping that they meet in the playoffs just to fix that.

You know things have gotten really bad for the Saints when I see they're going with black pants and I think, well, at least it's not the white pants...

It has become so disheartening to watch the Lions' uniform combinations devolve into full-on Cardinals/Commies territory. It makes me appreciate the more traditional teams even more: Packers, Bears, 49ers, Steelers, Raiders, Chiefs, Cowboys, Giants... With these teams holding steady, I still believe the NFL looks good far more than it looks bad. The Bears haven't messed around with monochrome this year, the Chiefs haven't gotten cute, and the return of all of these amazing throwbacks offsets the usual leotard and sock shenanigans.

Definitely the home uniform is my favorite of the Oilers' looks. As far as the white unis, I can see people liking the later Columbia blue numbers better than the red ones. You could make a pretty solid case that the Oilers never had a bad home uniform.
