Falcons New Unis 2020

[oldschoolvikings 16,548]

As expected, the Falcons wear that garbage all black monochrome for both opportunities, and I wouldn't be surprised if the only time we don't see a monochrome combo is when they're wearing the pretend throwback or the possibly even worse red fade monstrosity.

 

Dummies.

New Falcons uniform is now stained by blowing a huge lead, just like the one it replaced. It took all of two weeks for this. The 2020 Falcons may be the most 2020 team in the league.

I have to admit it, I’ve gone from despising the Falcons uniforms to actually kind of liking them, at least the home jersey. Since the side stripe is so thin, it doesn’t appear to not line up as much as I would have expected, and the huge “ATL” isn’t as noticeable because it’s red. White pants would be nice to see with the home jersey. 
 

As long as they don’t go monochrome white on the road (which they probably will), the road set wouldn’t be bad at all either. Black pants or socks would really do wonders with that jersey.  
 

We’ll see how the gradient jersey actually turns out, though I’m not optimistic.

I still really wish they had done this.

After watching that game today, I can confidently state that I hate the Falcons uniforms even more than I did originally upon release. 
 

The number font with the lateral shadow is just awful. Flat out horrendous. The font is terrible AND the shadowing too. Pick a struggle Atlanta. The font would look better with a solid outline or the shadow would look better with a more traditional number font, but not with both. I still dislike the ATL on the uniform but it’s not as bad in action. However, the chrome facemask (which I originally really liked) just looks out of place on this set. Black facemasks would work far better. 
 

The only way this set would be redeemable would be if they wore their white pants with their black jerseys and refused to go all-black monochrome. The black/white/black combo is visually appealing despite the atrocious numbers and word mark. We haven’t seen the all-white combo or white jersey/black pants yet, but they’ll both look better than all-black. 
 

And incredibly the black monochrome isn’t even the worse set they’ll wear this season owing to that red gradient monstrosity has that yet to be worn.

Same.  As predicted, Darth Vaders or Storm Troopers all day, every day.

I hate them worse seeing them in action, too.  They are incredibly BORING.  They look cheap like a high school or even middle school should wear.  God Awful.  And the whole mono-thing blows.  They have great potential with their color palette; UGA's new looks for 2020 run circles around this clown-car.

 

As bad as the Rams are...and they've destroyed their uniforms...at least they tried to look slick but failed.  I have no freaking idea what the Fal-can'ts had in mind when they went with this vomitous eyesore.  Maybe they wanted the uniforms to looks as bad as they play this year.

On the plus side, the rebuild can start when they finally fire Dan Quinn.

About 2.5 years too late...

These jerseys looked very meh against Seattle. They weren't the worst things ever, but they already look very outdated, like they would've been uniforms 15-20 years ago. 

 

Maybe unpopular opinion, I really think Atlanta should've based their rebrand around their old Color Rush look. Brighten the red, keep red as the primary jersey color, make a black alternate that mirrors the design of the red, and have the array of black/red/white pants. These uniforms looked really good in real-time, and I bet they'd look better with some better accents so it's not just cherry red. Would've been a good idea to build off of regardless. 

Still not great, however, this would be a much better look than the current uniforms, which are the worst in the league. Without question the worst uniforms in the NFL.

I really didnt like the falcons uniforms when they were unveiled. However, that opinion hasn't changed. There are bright spots, Im okay with them embracing the black, but the Saints and Panthers are also very focused on wearing black, which kinda ruins that. The satin/matte helmet looks good, it matches the jersey well. But there needs to be more red, they were literally wearing red&white at home every week for the last few years, the seats in the stadium are red! They just look like a team from D-2 not an NFL franchise. I am a massive advocate of custom number fonts, but what they have right now is brutal. The chrome facemask is bad. I think there are ways to fix this current set, and keep the same general ideas. I just don't have what that looks like completely nailed just yet.

I hated the uniforms when they were unveiled and I hate them even more seeing them in games. Unlike you, I strongly dislike the satin/matte helmet they use. The logo is a mess and they need to return to the previous logo. I hate the number fonts, the "ATL" script, the striping, the gradient look, the monochromatic uniforms. What a mess. Nike came up with a dreadful design from top to bottom and the owner approved such an eyesore.

I think the Falcons' facemasks would work well with more Silver — particularly, as a base color for a pair of pants again — utilized throughout their uniforms.

Satin or matte black were cool for a minute or two just because they were different but as evidenced by the jags regaining their senses, a gloss black shell is the hands down superior look.

There aren't any D2 looks that bad

Agreed. Coordinating their colors, rather than going for big blocks of black or white, would go a long way, and silver pants could help with that tremendously.

The Falcons new look, warts and all, is still better than their old uniforms. Come at me

The helmet is killer actually. 

The rest is pretty brutal.
