TBGKon Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Also, while these graphics of the Lions gray alts look dark, I found photos of the game from last year. They look lighter, so the Cowboys in blue should contrast but the Lions should wear these grays against a team that doesnt use silver or blue and would stand out.

Kramerica Industries Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 So are the Browns restricted to wearing the brown pants with this jersey or what? Because, with orange pants, this is a good looking matchup, but the brown pants ruin that entirely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely embarrassing that this is becoming their standard road look. I thought it wasn't possible to make a worse road look than their black leotards. Boy was I wrong...

Absolutely embarrassing that this is becoming their standard road look. I agree. If they're gonna wear white pants, wear the color rush white pants with the stripe. They look like they're ready for a training camp practice session. The Saints really need a redesign. Not sure whether it was their decision or Nike's, but the the gold became khaki around the time Nike took over the NFL contract. They need to go back to the original shade of Saints gold or even something pre-2012. Then they need to get rid of the extra outlines around the fleur-de-lis (it needs one outline, period). And they need every set of pants in their wardrobe to have some sort of stripe on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redskinsfan007 Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 NFL rules place a limit of 3 times per year for Color Rush/Alternate uniforms. In order to wear them more than 3 times, you need special permission from the league which is what Cleveland did. I think the Saints have reached their limit already...or they're 2/3. They wore them against Seattle and Dallas. I think they created the white pants to mimic the color rush concept hoping fans would love it, but it just looks terrible. Imagine the packers start going white on white with absolutely no striping down the pant legs? Horrible. Don't know how the team with arguably the best alternate uniform can simultaneously possess the worst alternate uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They assume the fans love it since it is similar to Color Rush, but what really stands out about the Color Rush are the nice gold numbers and striping patterns, which the regular white on white uniform lacks. I just don't understand the thought process here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't understand the thought process here. Rumor is they are phasing out the current gold pants. I am hoping for an eventual redesign ourond the color rush whites, but who knows. I am all for white numbers on a black jersey, gold trim, white pants with classic stripes. Color rush away, alt gold pants with updated white & blackstriping.

HARD disagree there. With Reebok, midnight green was one of the worst colors in the league. Shiney materials made it look absolutely awful Moving to Nike and the matte fabrics was the best thing they could’ve done. It takes it from the worst color in the league to one of the best and most unique in sports During the Reebok/shiney material era, I was all on board the kelly green return bandwagon, but the matte fabric completely flipped my opinion on it. Hands down one of my favorite colors in all of sports now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayFinkle Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 100000% agree with you, jn8. And I am a long time Eagles fan. The matte green blows away the shiny green. And they won the SB with those matte green jerseys. So....yay!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch B Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 The Cowboys in Navy over silver is a top 3 NFL uniform IMHO. I'd like to see Dallas ditch all other shades of blue from their scheme.

Froob Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Odd everyone is trying to jinx Dallas this season. Surprised Pats aren’t in white for the Cowboys game, guess they figured they already are doing 3 color rush games as it is, would only have standard home for four games.
