Nike NFL "Color Rush" uniforms?

I know the Rams pants are what they wear with the throwback uniforms and that set with the blue jersey looks fine, but boy the white stripe sticks out in the worst way. They were better off replacing that with yellow.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

The Bucs' uniforms are better than their regular uniforms (that's not saying much, but it's the truth). The Rams wore all yellow in 1948 and these seem to be very similar to those uniforms. I like the Rams' look a lot, but opting to not wear the yellow horns was a huge miss.

I'm confused by your statement "...opting to not wear the yellow horns..." They are wearing the yellow horns on the helmets, per usual, and, yellow-on-yellow wouldn't work. Are you suggesting that they wear royal on royal with yellow shoulder horns? While that would be an interesting option, I fail to see how it would be better than this.

Yellow is such a unique color in sports, I'm so glad they chose to make yellow the primary for the uniform and I really hope this is a hint into what the Rams could wear full-time in either L.A. or the new St. Louis stadium.

I believe he is referring to the throwback helmet

This. Sorry for confusing you. Honestly, I looked at the picture above and thought they were wearing their "normal" (gold) helmet horns.

The yellow Rams jersey looks soooooo good!!!

If they get rid of the stupid Nike collar and pair the jersey with white pants next year, that would no joke be my favorite uniform in the NFL. Hands down.

Agreed.

Bucs jersey looks great too, a million times better than their current. Just pair it up with pewter or white pants and sheeeeesh, what a nice set.

Bucs look boring. Rams look alright. The white stripe in the middle of the yellow pants kinda throws off the look for me. If the numbers were outlined in white or there was some sort of white elsewhere on the uniform they would look a lot better.

No complaints for the Rams though, as they were exactly what I expected them to be.

The Bucs, however... yuck.

Agreed. The white pants stripe needs to be balanced with some white on the jersey and some on the socks. With a few tweaks, these are pretty sweet though.

I can't believe how superior I find the Bucs uniform to what their currently wear. Less is more.

I'd be MUCH happier if the color rush was just to get rid of white.. No white jerseys, no white pants.. ALL COLOR.. That could've been a great tagline and made for some amazing uniforms, not to mention the COLOR VS COLOR matchup it would still offer.. It has gone overboard by the neck-down monochrome.. Even using a secondary color on the socks would help tremendously.. I'm actually a fan of the entire color rush concept and all the uniform elements for the most part.. Just not the execution of it all

Yeah, give the Rams some white pants and blue socks and that is MY ideal Rams uniform. Hell, I could even deal with mono yellow if they lost the white pant stripe and added blue socks.

You mean something like this?

Haven't seen this addressed yet, but it looks like the Rams are combining the throwback yellow with the current navy blue, rather than royal. Obviously they used the darker helmet in the past but all of the trim on this set is darker than the current throwback. Even the pants striping looks darker, suggesting they are new pants and not just carried over from their throwbacks.

Yes, again, as separate uniform elements, these are fine.

Bucs jersey with white or pewter pants? Sweet. Bucs pants with white jersey? Neat.

Rams jersey with white pants? :censored: yes! Move them to LA and make that the regular alternate, and damn it, you have my money. Rams pants as part of the throwback uni? Always great.

However, as a combo platter uniform, it's gross.

That Bucs jersey is TERRIBLE. Meaning, it's still SO much better than their current home jersey.
