Future of NFL "Color Rush"

Recommended Posts

Tough to get a good Photoshop but I'd love to see the Chargers color rush full time, but with yellow or white pants. Initially I had thought I'd prefer white but think the yellow would be more unique and Chargers as It would be similar to the 1966-1973 uni configuration. (Edit: I added white to the socks to give a less "Color Rush" look there)

Either one isn't a bad look, though yellow pants would really embrace what should be the whole Color Rush™ concept--the emphasis of teams wearing colors that they normally don't wear (whether from their current or historical pallettes).

That's the biggest thing holding these concepts back.

I agree, although for whatever reason having the numbers in yellow instead of white on the Color Rush jersey made the font a lot more tolerable. An updated number font would still be preferable though.

Nothing to add that others haven't already said. Both the Chargers and Broncos should be wearing this full time with a set of white pants. The first Color Rush matchup where I actually liked both uniforms.

 

I don't know why, but the yellow facemask on the white helmet works really well. 

 

 

 

It's because the white simply needs a little more color.  The yellow face mask brings the yellow in the bolts out.

The Broncos looked pretty good, but that logo just showed how superior the current one is. Keep the D as an alt logo or something, but keep the horse head as the helmet logo. It's FAR better in application than the D logo. Especially with how stylized the new helmet shells are.

Make the bolts a little thicker and change the number font and that's a solid look.

WOW, this look marvelous. This is the Chargers that I did one time that I didn't even finish the concept to. WOW. I think I need to finish that Chargers concept with the Air Coryell theme. I am in love with this look!!!

consider going back to the traditional bolt patterns for jersey/pants as opposed to the tribal tat versions then you'll have a guaranteed winner

I made this photoshop kinda quickly, but I think it shows how nice some of these looks could be. Specifically I really like the Orange/White Broncos and the Blue/Yellow Chargers.

I'd be curious to see what the yellow pants would look like with that white jersey you mocked up for the Chargers.

Those all look pretty great. I'd love for the broncos to look like that full time. I'd just switch the D for the current logo on the helmets, but add a modernized D logo as an alt (I've seen some concepts on this board that show how it should be done). The Chargers look great with the royal instead of navy. Shows how much better the league would look if it generally moved towards brighter colors.

Am I the only one that doesn't like a yellow face mask on a white helmet. It just seemed too obnoxiously bright to me, now it with a royal blue shell I think compliments each other nicely. 

I unconsciously found myself shaking my head with disdain at the yellow face mask on the white helmet. The Chargers look on Thursday was almost nice. I welcome the 'Dan Fouts" royal blue, but the yellow bar on white helmet is smacking of trying too hard and it doesn't mesh.

I'm not a fan of robo-bronco, but I agree that the old logo is too "old" for modern helmet shells.

 

What I'd like to see is a version of the old logo with a longer italicized D and a more forward-facing horse.  Not the current horse head like in every concept that's posted, but a slightly more realistic one.

Why would the D be italicized? It wouldn't match their typography otherwise. If you take the bottom serif off the D and leave the top one, it matches their style somewhat. The Broncos need a cobalt blue between royal and navy, as the navy looks near black on these alternates. While the 1997 template can go, I'm inclined to keep the modern numbers and lettering. I'd say orange jerseys with blue socks, white jerseys with blue numbers and orange socks, so there's always some split between their two colors.

 

As for the Chargers, I like the yellow facemask on the white helmet a lot, but I'd go with white numbers on powder blue to distinguish them from the soon-enough royal/gold L.A. Rams up the road. 

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫
