NFLfan10 1,213 Posted August 17, 2018 If you go to the Browns twitter post of the uniforms for tonight, you'll see that pretty much every reply is a complaint that the team keeps wearing all white, so hopefully that does something for us. I never got why everyone hates these uniforms. Is it simply because of the orange numbers? I'd rather they wear brown jerseys since it's their color and it's unique. As many of my posts indicate, I absolutely can't stand white at home, especially in non-divisional games. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There were complaints from the first about how illegible the numbers are. The team's total abandonment of them seems to be a pretty clear admission that they know they completely crapped the bed with this set. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which is why I don't understand why the team approved of them if they hate them so much. Doesn't make sense.

I'm just wondering what white jersey they will wear when the host the Eagles in November--the regular one or the color rush? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not even that, they just stopped wearing different uniform combos altogether last season. Here's a look at what they wore in 2016 which was the last time they supposedly believed in the uniforms. Compare that with 2017. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why they don't have striped socks though is behind me. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pagan696 130 Posted August 18, 2018 1st time the Panthers have gone white pants w blue jerseys. Normally it’s silver pants w the blue jersey. They have worn black, and blue pants (color rush) w the 3rd previously. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ive defended the unis like no one else, though even I agree that they’re not supposed to be Instragrammed with fire emojis next to them like every other new uniform that gets unveiled is. That’s not the point of the uniform. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did it ever cross your mind that the league also has the option of simply not commenting on them at all? That is also very possible and perhaps a better option than some transparent, cheesy tweet that will clearly result in backlash and people disagreeing. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More important than the NFL's motivations or the overuse of the fire emoji is the fact that this combo sucks balls. The teal jersey can work, even if it's overall a boring design. But this blank white nonsense is lame. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree that presenting them in the modern fire emoji-style is a bit out of place, though I've also considered that maybe they don't hate them like some folks here expect that everyone should, and that maybe they aren't just choking out hollow praises through gritted teeth for cryptic marketing hoo-hah. The people like white; "stormtrooper" looks in college football have always gotten support for reasons beyond me. It's also not like they posted anything about the more interesting combo last week either. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
