Especially with Nike's must-be-matte fabric limitations. And it would likely be paired with black pants, which would be awful. ugh yea this doesn't look good at all. It just looks dirty, Grimy. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I always preferred 80-89 as the general rule and 10-19 as the exception (like, maybe 10-25%). The guy who brought the WR's in 10-19 trend back was Keyshawn Johnson who for some reason wore 19 when he joined the Jets in 1996. I never warmed up to receivers wearing numbers in the teens. It just looks wrong to me. Frankly I'd rather let them wear 0-9 and 20-29. Leave 10-19 for QB's and kickers/punters. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, teams barley have enough numbers in the 20s, and 30s to give to RBs and DBs. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scouserduke 146 Posted May 13, 2020 Ranking the NFL's new uniforms: 1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2. Cleveland Browns 3. Los Angeles Chargers 4. New England Patriots 5. Indianapolis Colts 6. Los Angeles Rams 7. Atlanta Falcons 1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- A welcome return to the Super Bowl-winning set complete with a smaller helmet logo. Combine that with the excitement of Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski and you have all the eyes on Tampa Bay this upcoming season. 2. Cleveland Browns -- Another return to greatness. This set really shows that less is more. A toss-up here between the Browns and Chargers, the Browns get the nod based on the level of improvement over their previous set. 3. Los Angeles Chargers -- Beginning to see a trend here? Another retro-inspired set. The lines of the new logo are far better and the new typeface/number set is a very nice fit. And who doesn't like powder-blue? 4. New England Patriots -- Finally. They dropped the silly side panels and inconsistent striping. The transition into the classically-striped color rush uniforms, with an evenly-weighted number font, is a welcomed one. 5. Indianapolis Colts -- As lateral of a move as you can make. I even debated including them or not due to the only uniform change was a slab-serif addition to the number font. The wordmark and alternate logo changes are fine. Nothing to complain about. 6. Los Angeles Rams -- Unveiled today, and not as bad as I feared. The logos did not give me much hope. Negatives: gradient stripes/numbers, no TV numbers, no white set -- a bone grey away uniform instead, a silly team name patch. Positives: the colors, no helmet horn gradient. 7. Atlanta Falcons -- Bland. Generic. Boring. Hard to do when you have a red, black, and silver color palette. They took Tampa's oversized helmet logo and silver facemask out of the garbage and proudly pair it with a red-to-black gradient uniform with a side-panel stripe. Woof. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm afraid that patch is more insidious than silly. That's a Trojan Horse for advertising on the jerseys. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, and if they can get away with putting the team patch there this year without any significant pushback I fully expect that to get quietly replaced with a sponsor's patch in a year or two. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure if pushback even matters. Practice jerseys have had them for a while now and the NBA has set a US precedent for ads on game jerseys... may just happen regardless. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woof. Umm..you do know the gradient is the alternate, like the bucs ugly pewter. If we're judging solely on NEW home/away defaults I'd say... Actual new uniforms: Chargers, Falcons, Rams Slightly updated: Browns, Bucs, Colts, Patriots. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
