dont care 6,882 Posted January 16, 2017 Idk what they would be superstitious about, Atlanta will be wearing red the entire time in the playoffs until that point, and Green Bay has played in both jerseys and won already in the playoffs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WM1988 17 Posted January 16, 2017 Isn't the NFC team the designated home team this year? I would think that Green Bay or Atlanta would wear their standard home uniforms. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigEd76 329 Posted January 16, 2017 2004 Patriots wore white 2005 Steelers wore white (because they won three road games to get to SB40 and wanted to stay in white) 2006 Colts wore white 2007 Giants wore white 2008 Steelers wore white 2009 Saints wore white 2011 Giants wore white 2012 Ravens wore white 2013 Seahawks wore white 2014 Patriots wore white 2015 Broncos wore white (because they never won a SB in orange....and because recent teams in white did so well ) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

orangefaniniowa 268 Posted January 16, 2017 Falcons wore their colored jerseys (black) in Super Bowl 34, and got pounded by the Broncos. Wouldn't be surprised they switched to white jerseys for the upcoming Super Bowl to keep the "superstition" thing going. That is if they get by A-Rod and the Packers in the NFC title game this upcoming Sunday. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I find these superstitions to be terribly stupid, but there can be nothing bad that comes of the Falcons irrationally deciding to wear white in the Super Bowl (if they make it). Steelers in black versus Falcons in white looks better than the reverse, and Patriots in navy versus Falcons in white would look immeasurably better than the reverse. From a sheer aesthetic perspective, I hope the Falcons choose to follow some idiotic superstition if they make it to the dance. The Pats' white uniforms are unrelentingly ugly, and the Falcons' dated uniforms are irredeemable either way. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The black jerseys can't be worn anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RayFinkle 641 Posted January 16, 2017 Rooting for a Stillers/Falcons matchup. So glad only one blue team is left. Give me a red/yellow endzone matchup, please. WoOooOOooOOO hOOOoOOOOo!!! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoHawks 948 Posted January 16, 2017 I doubt Packers would choose white in the super bowl because last time they won they wore green. Falcons on the other hand are iffy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrianLion 1,461 Posted January 17, 2017 Falcons will wear red if they make it to the SB. Them being "superstitious" about something that happened one time, seventeen years ago is silly. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was referring to the color jersey the wore, of course they aren't wearing black it don't exist in their wardrobe anyway. And with the streak of winning teams wearing white in Super Bowl, wouldn't be surprised if they did. OTOH, I expect the Packers to wear green in the Super Bowl, but you never know. Remember the Packers are last team to win a Super Bowl wearing the colored jersey. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mitch B 681 Posted January 22, 2017 While the Falcons uniforms aren't perfect, the balance between the red and black in their current home look is pretty darn good. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RayFinkle 641 Posted January 22, 2017 Are teams allowed to make a change to their color rush uni's to be their full time ones? I ask because I don't know the NFL rules around uni changes, when they are allowed, etc... NE could make an easy upgrade by just changing to the color rush uni's. Add a pair of white pants and that's a good look, a big upgrade, IMO. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Actually looked amazing. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sometimes wonder when the new stadium opens in the fall if they'll go WAH for some early season games if they choose to open the roof. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
