It's just you. it just depends on whom the Lions and Cowboys happen to be playing on this day. What I do miss is Detroit and Dallas alternating each season as to hosting an AFC opponent. Too much NFC on Thanksgiving the past few seasons, not taking into consideration the still newly-added night game.on NBC. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ARTnSocal 534 Posted November 24, 2016 The problem with the Cowboys pants is Nike, as I have no idea when they won't manufacture metallic pants like Reebok did, but then the NFL switched away from Reebok to Nike in 2012 and things changed for the worse, starting with those toilet seat collars which some teams still haven't gotten rid of. Those Cowboys pants would look superb if they weren't so matte looking, but at least they match the helmets better than the pants they wear with the white jerseys. I think the Cowboys look great today in the navy blue jerseys and silver pants, but there's nothing as great as their throwbacks based on their '60-'63 look with the white helmet and white pants ... IMO. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the old days, it would have been the Jags/Titans playing Detroit on the CBS game. Those unis probably don't look as good against the Lions honolulu blue compared to MIN. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could have also been Minnesota at Detroit (on FOX) ... just like we got today and Cincinnati / Baltimore at Dallas (CBS) Also ... the Vikings purple pants would look so much better if they wore white socks with purple/yellow/purple striping in the centre. This leotard look some teams are wearing is simply awful. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, not for everybody... Before Nike... After Nike... The very definition of "hit and miss"... big upgrade for Vikes, equally big downgrade for the Bucs. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The only Nike change since 2012 that I really like is Minnesota's and the matte helmets, only the socks for the purple pants are wrong. Many like the tweaking of KC's withe the striping on the sleeves and the TV numbers on the shoulders, I don't. I miss how the KC helmet logo was larger at the time of the AFL/NFL merger too. I could even live withe Seattle's change if they weren't in monochrome navy overkill at home and they had white socks to go with the blue pants on the road when wearing white jerseys, although I still like the look of their white jersey with wolf gray pants and blue socks The Tampa Bay, and Jacksonville changes are just plain awful. The Bucs had a great uniform set, there was no need for a change. Jax had great uniforms when they wore teal jerseys with the jaguar on the sleeves. Only Carolina was the smart '95 expansion team who only made slight tweaks that were an improvement, IMO. Namely touching up the 'Panther' logo on the helmet. Not a fan of their black pants look. Cleveland is a mess too, but with some positives. They need white jersey numbers with orange shadows on the brown jerseys, brown numbers withe orange shadows with on their white jerseys, get rid of the giant 'CLEVELAND' word-mark below the NFL shield and change it to a downsized 'BROWNS' word-mark instead, and get rid of the 'BROWNS' on all their pants. The positives of their change are the brighter orange helmets and I like the brown face-masks. Green Bay and Oakland were the smart ones who didn't allow Nike ruin a nice classic look, and the Bills were smart enough to have Nike delete the toilet seat collar after the 2012 season, they just forgot to get white socks with the royal blue pants. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It makes me sad that these are no longer their uniforms. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Around the Horn 1,408 Posted November 26, 2016 I love the Eagles black jerseys, but I hate the all-black uniforms. The black jerseys with white pants is such a good look for them. Its a shame they don't wear it anymore. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
