NFL 2018 changes

[SFGiants58]

The helmet is perfect, which excuses the design a tad. Matte or that weird flake effect takes away from the design’s beautiful simplicity (pissed-off jaguar emerging from the shadows). However, teal numbers would be a marked improvement.

 

Khan is to black as Spanos is to navy. They both go against fan wishes to push “their” color on the team. While the Spanoses are sorta embracing powder, I don’t see Khan shying away from black-primary.

I believe as far as the stripe less pant thing goes(for the record, I liked striped pants), I just don't know why teams wear a sock that's the same color as the pant. Either wear a striped sock with the stripe less pants or a different color top to the sock. i.e. every time the Browns wear their brown pants, they should wear the orange topped socked and so on for the other stripe less pant teams.

Asked my wife what she thought of the Jags’ uniforms.

 

”They’re pretty plain,” she said. 

 

I love her so much.

I wanted matte until the first time the uniforms went onto the field. They are great, and I’m not sure why I wanted anything different.

 

But, they look like a high school team that got plain white and black uniforms (without any real school colors except for the logos) because they were the cheapest option.

Having been at the Vikes/Jags game, I actually thought they looked good in person.

The Jaguars look terrible on the road with teal nowhere to be found and no pants stripes.

 

Look like one of those generic "1-AA South" teams you'd play in dynasty mode in the old NCAA games.

They didn’t even get the helmet right. By flipping the golds, the logo looks muted and a little less vivid.

Clean, smooth, classy, sleek, elegant...

 

The Jacksonville Jaguars have officially ushered in the "Less is More" era of NFL uniform designs. No more stale, old-fashioned "standard" features like pants stripes. No more gimmicky "modern" patterns. However, like a lot of others have mentioned, solid teal numbers would've made it perfect. That is my one critique. Still, I applaud the Jaguars for the great new set, which will no doubt influence NFL uniform designs from here on out.

The whole set looks unfinished. 

[C-Squared]

Anyone else remember when Nate Burleson diplomatically blamed "overcorrecting" for his car crash? And then it came out that he broke his arm because he was messing with a pizza box while driving?

 

The Jags overcorrected with this plain cheese pizza design.

[Bathysphere]

I really like they way they look in those HQ photos. Yadda yadda..something about teal..yadda yadda, though the classy helmet and crispy number font carry it pretty damn well and set it apart from something that I would consider "too bland" (including the Jags 2009 look). I'll probably drop a full review of 'em myself before the preseason is over so I can stop parroting myself to make a point; I want to emphasize how the goalposts have been moved in regards to these duds.

And by "no more" I assume you mean just this one time?  Because I'm pretty sure you wont see another uniform this plain in a redesign going forward.

I disagreed with all the hate for this....

 

 

but I think I'm going to have to agree with (most) of the hate for this...

Let me guess, all of these uniforms are "stale" and ugly to you (I couldn't find a compilation with the Lions' current uniforms):

 

 

 

 

Pants stripes/jersey decorations that aren't obscured by pads = instant trash by your logic, am I right? I know that you don't care about the sport's aesthetic traditions and are more obsessed with what's "swag" and , but at least explain why pants stripes should fall victim to the "clean" fad that's really just a reaction to the "busy" fad of the past few years.

 

Fads fade, while aesthetic traditions manage to stick around and influence good modern design (e.g., the Dolphins' clean-up, the Vikings' uniforms, the (Las) Vegas Golden Knights in the NHL, etc.).

Less is more..

But, just the right amount is MOST..

The all white is definitely the least interesting look of their new set. I know that Khan probably prefers the black combo for at home, but jazz the set up with some teal and the white (and the rest of the set) look will be a winner.

But what's the difference between the two? Most agreed that the white jerseys could use teal numbers. Other than that, I don't see the difference quality.

Well, it's your opinion that it's "plain". And I'm pretty sure you'll see simpler designs similar to this in the future.

Where did you get that I'm "obsessed with what's swag"? lol. And what's the "clean fad"? Clean uniforms are a bad thing now?

 

Teams that'll never stray too far from their own classic look like the Packers, Bears, Steelers, etc are obviously perfectly fine. Future uniforms that adopt these old-fashioned designs as if it was "standard" is what's dull and boring.

Here's a better analogy:

 

 

 

 

When you start adding toppings just for the sake of adding toppings, you lose sight of what you're eating in the first place.

Now I want pizza and pant stripes.

 

 

Ah, but you indeed chose the pic of the pizza with only one topping to include in your post! You may have thought you wanted the usual anchovies and mushrooms, but once you take a bite of that delicious pepperoni slice you'll forget about all the other suff. Once you get used to seeing the Jaguars beautiful uniforms in action, you'll forget all about wanting stripes. Enjoy your pizza!

One topping, not just plain cheese (Perhaps with a little Italian spice sprinkled on the crust to make it seem like it's better than regular plain ol' cheese).. One outline, one stripe, anything.. Just one unique element to tie the identity together and avoid the practice-uniform look would've made these great.. As it stands, they're just good

Sometimes simple works. It just does.
