BBTV 20,098 Posted June 19, 2020 17 hours ago, oldschoolvikings said: but that's a function of jersey templates and the ".0234 percent lighter" mentality. It's more likely that it's a function of player preference, since sleeves were shrinking way before the Nike BS about their performance materials started. These photos are from the 1994 season, and players were already either having their jerseys tailored or tucking the sleeves in underneath their pads. I think it's time to put aside the "everything was better back in my day" schtick and accept that some changes are legitimately due to function rather than fashion. 23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

henburg 1,512 Posted June 19, 2020 11 hours ago, dont care said: Because they would be illegible during a game Yeah the legibility issue was probably my biggest concern while making it, the contrast may just be too low. It's probably more legible than some uniforms allowed in the past as Buc pointed out, but the NFL has seemed to crack down on that issue a bit since incidents like the Bills vs Jets Colorblind game a few years ago. Still, I feel that the Pewter uniforms are boring without orange and even a little black trim, and I felt that it was worth a shot. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The orange has to touch either black or pewter or else it gets muted next to the red. Great job 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_RH_ 608 Posted June 20, 2020 @henburgCool photoshop! I'm not really a fan of the pewter jersey, and agree they really need orange. Maybe more white would balance it out? Maybe getting rid of all the black trim would make it easier to squeeze in more orange. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FiddySicks 11,180 Posted June 21, 2020 That pewter jersey is just about perfect. The red jersey is alright too, but I prefer the black arm and neck trim. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which was itself an incredibly well-timed uniform overhaul. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember wondering to myself as a kid whether the uniform change made a difference. Uni-Watch touched on this back in 2011. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

O.C.D 519 Posted August 11, 2020 I'll never really understand why so many pro sports teams work so hard to ignore the wishes of their fans. It seems like so many teams are dead set on doing absolutely ANYTHING besides what their fans ask for. The Buc's did right by their fans (so did the Browns). They make it seem like the fans are impossible to please or something, but I think these owners/management are too stubborn for their own good 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They make it seem like the fans are impossible to please or something, but I think these owners/management are too stubborn for their own good Because at the end of the day the owners only care about fans when their wallets are being threatened. Many owners think it's fine to change unis every 5 years or so to force the fans to shell out more of their hard-earned money that goes straight into a billionaire's pocket. And they only change back to the original uniforms and claim they "listened to the fans" when it becomes apparent that their newfangled uniforms are HATED and are not flying off the shelves (like the Bucs and Browns)...because owners have yet to understand that fans are actually thinking human beings and can tell when they're being taken for a ride. Looks like Arthur Blank has yet to realize that, but probably will by 2025 when fans have been clamoring for 5 years for a return to their old unis...that's my prediction for 2025, and I'll add the Rams to that too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
