BJ Sands Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 The Bengals were soooo close to getting this totally right. But there’s too many flaws to give this anything higher than a C grade. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the drop shadows. Joe Montana never wore uniforms with drop shadows. Jerry Rice spent the first half of his career without those hideous drop shadows. I just associate anything with the drop shadows as akin to the uniforms worn during the team’s nadir. Heck, ‘94 is far less memorable than ‘88, ‘81, and ‘84, to me. 2 1 MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And no discredit to them, but my mind likes to separate the '94 Niners of George Seifert and Steve Young from the '81-88-89 Niners of Bill Walsh and Joe Montana. Having different uniforms is likely a big part of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Jerry Rice was wearing the uniform in the promo pic he had red socks on They did that last time tho too. Rice wore red socks for the white top reveal. Maybe a couple other players did too, but they ended up wearing all white. Problem anyway is the NFL is so lax on the socks that we'd end up seeing 43 different combos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFGiants58 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 I think Seifert's Panthers tenure was a perfect demonstration of what he truly was without Bill Walsh's systems or star talent. 1 MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's more this.

AFirestormToPurify Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 9 hours ago, gothedistance said: Probably because it was the color rush from the previous uniform design, and the fact that they used royal blue from the 1970s to the 1980s. Fair enough, but do they need three shades of blue, two of which they don't even use on their primary uniforms? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having different uniforms is likely a big part of that. Probably why the '94's look so good in my view. I missed '81, was a preschooler in '84, and '88 was the Super Bowl I was forced to go to one of my dad's work friends houses to play hours of Excite Bike on the old Nintendo. '94 was the first season they made a Super Bowl I was really aware of the Niners and I really liked that uniform. Then they switched back to what has become their standard uniform and had a lesser season and it just seemed meh to me. Of course then they switched the cardinal, gold and drop shadow one 2 years later and my only reaction was, why the hell didn't they just wear the '94 rather than some inferior imitation of it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Everything about this quote is great until you get to the gradient part. That tells me it’s more of a faux back with gradient elements than it is a true throwback to whatever uniform he’s talking about. Unless he’s just talking about the entire uniform set as whole. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still can't understand how the Rams had the near perfect uniform to go back to, partially did go back to, then bailed on it for the land of gradient numbers. I mean IMO both LA teams screwed up what should have been slam dunks, but the Chargers at least didn't totally :censored: it up. It's about the only win over their landlords that the Chargers have had since their ill advised move to LA. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill0813 Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 On 6/29/2021 at 12:10 AM, _DietDrPepper_ said: Because purple is much more unique and less frequently seen color in sports, especially the NFL, where the Vikings were the only team in the league who had purple in their color scheme for 40 years. The Ravens also not only share purple, but also a shade of gold, plus black which is found more in Minnesota’s identity now then ever, even if it’s not a lot. That means even the small distinctions matter more so then just any other team that wears purple. The Ravens have had a purple jersey since day one in 1996. A different shade of purple helmet is a bridge too far? Whatever monopoly some think Minnesota has on purple is long gone. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
