aaa333bbb Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 This might be a hot take but I think the Seahawks should have the greys be their primary road look. Would be cool/unique I think. Not saying I don’t like their whites, maybe make it an alternate like the Lakers. I think their color scheme matches well with grey more than white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Burgundy and all White are "the two cleanest" looks the Redskins have. That's an awful take. If the Redskins were to change anything it should be the logo at least, put the spear on the helmet and drop the logo out of the identity. Maybe even change the name. The rest of the uniform is fantastic though. Follow the NFA, and My Baseball League here: https://ahsports.boardhost.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the uniform is fantastic though. There’s no reason to get into the name aspect of the team on these boards because of well documented reasons. As far as the uniforms, I’ve always liked B/W/B at home & W/B/W on the road. Quite possibly the only right thing done under the Bruce Allen regime was axing the gold pants in favor of resurrecting the white pants. Don’t get me wrong, I like the gold pants, but the white pants work so much better. As far as logos go? I’ve always had a soft spot for the “R” logo instituted under Lombardi- I also really love the stripeless, grey facemasked helmet they use with their throwbacks- *insert shameless plug of personal concept* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think their color scheme matches well with grey more than white It was already covered, but basically the NFL has a rule that states that one of your two primary uniforms has to be white. 31 minutes ago, DNAsports said: As far as logos go?

I just prefer team monograms to be based off of the locale rather then the nickname. With that said? The spear logo is the best helmet designs they've ever had.

VikWings Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 1 hour ago, throwmesomepics said: How would you guys rank these combos for the Seahawks? 6 is white on grey (kind of hard to see in the sun) and 9 is blue on white (never worn before). Personally, I’ll go with 2, 5, 4, 1, 3, 7, 6, 9, 8 from best to worst. 2 6 4 8 (I love that lime green color) 5 (Needs green or gray socks) 9 3 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayMac Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 1 hour ago, Buc said: I might can answer that. This is where a good handle in color theory comes into the equation, too...red is the most eye-catching color, and as such it commands the most amount of focus. As that relates to football helmets, red is fine as a shell, but a red face cage is...its just too much red; it needs something to help break it up. I believe this is why KC's white face cages work so well (as did and would gray). That sums it up perfectly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 3 hours ago, Magic Dynasty said: Huh, TIL. However, I still think my other point - that it’s too busy for a modern uniform - stands. It looks like a mess from that distance in the picture. A solid color (on the home I’d probably just make it green, as gold would be a bit too bright and white would just look bad) would clean things up significantly. As long as they're using a collar like this I don't think there's any issue. I do remember Florida State having issues with their collars getting cut off wit the current Nike cuts.

FinsUp1214 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Name aside, Washington’s uniform itself is really good. However, their 2002 anniversary uniform is (in my opinion) one of the best of all time. If they ever changed, I’d want to see at least something resembling this (but really, this exactly without the chest patch): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, those numbers are larger than standard numbers, right? Or are eyes deceiving me? Whatever the size, I love them. No outline is the way to go. If they were to totally redesign, I’d like for them to follow University of Minnesota. I know, a professional football team take queues from a collegiate team. Who would’ve thought. Aside from their chrome helmets used from time-to-time, the design has progressed nicely the past few years. 2012-2017 2018-CURRENT The have some really great options and use a damn near identical color scheme to the Redskins.

It's saying something when even the normals are noticing On sports radio, every now and then when they go into a commercial there will be a little 10-second take from some national guy - someone like Jim Rome, Dave Amendolara, Boomer Esiason, etc. The last couple of days, there has been more than one of those that are talking about the new uniforms. That would never have happened before. I don't know why it's happening now, but I think the mainstream is definitely taking more note of uni changes than before.
