A modern get up works since their existence in Arizona really felt like it required a facelift -- afterall, their temporary way of making themselves feel re-born was simply slapping the Arizona flag on the sleeves. I have no interest in them reverting to the ultra-simplified look of yesteryear, I would even be more intruiged if they adopted a new color scheme, possibly something similar to the Coyotes/D-Backs deeper red and sand aesthetic. This is what I've always thought. Especially since the Cards have been a historically bad team, Nike could afford to go more bold with them.

Brave-Bird 08 Posted August 19, 2022 Share Posted August 19, 2022 Of course they said "ICY," then had to double down by saying "arctic" for a game being played in *checks notes* Nashville, in a video where it's being presented in California, lol Enough with the lame speak when unveiling uniforms. Just let the look speak for itself. If I see "icy" one more time I am going to lose it. (and as doug mentioned, they're not aware enough to wear the throwback white pants so that there isn't a random sliver of grey) 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old School Fool Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I don't like the Cowboys helmet for the same reason I don't like the Bears helmet in that they are one of the teams that should not have an alternate helmet unless it's for a throwback. Now they will just not look like the Cowboys and that's just about the dumbest thing you can do. The team hasn't had a white helmet since 1963 and now they will suddenly wear a new white helmet for a random game in Nashville. Not in a home game, not against a rival team, against the Tennesse Titans on a Thursday night. That's stupid. Helmet branding is important regardless of how good alternate helmets can be. Some teams seriously need to stay in their lane. I'm not saying I don't want alternate helmets, it's just that I want them to be for teams that don't have iconic helmets and more importantly I want the helmets to actually be creative and make sense. The Cardinals helmet shouldn't be messed with but they made it work by bringing something new to the table design wise, it wasn't just some cheap color swap and calling it a day. They actually modified the decal, added red flakes, that's actually interesting and makes it easier to stomach. All I ask is that teams try harder and stop being stupid. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I don’t know, I think I prefer the Cowboys to be a navy blue and white team with silver being a tertiary color. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I thought that they were, but had it in my head that maybe the Bears were older. Was too lazy to stop typing and look it up. Either way: Current helmet plain red jersey with white numbers plain white pants reverse the colors for the road jersey Bingo bango bongo. Perfect set for the Cardinals. 1 On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

DG_YouKnowWhatThatMeans Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 The red shirts were kind of plain, but I think the road set was just about perfect.

The_Admiral Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 I would go back to the St. Louis set with red and black on the road: Even in Phoenix, they should look timeless.

SportsFan12 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 So Washington did not once show off or mock-up this white over burgundy combo since the unveil, yet they are already wearing it in game 2? I’m happy it won’t be white on white all the time, but wow does that bottom half need some contrast…. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSmith48 Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 KaVontae Turpin is taking the undershirt trend to a whole *lower* level. It may not be long before we see mini-skirts in the NFL. I really don't get this trend other than it just "looking cool" (which it doesn't). 1 Visit my website at SSmith Designs (google.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throwuascenario Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 On 7/29/2022 at 1:00 PM, NFLfan10 said: Last year the team didn't even use all three blue jersey games. And they didn't even wear blue at home. I don't think they're as concerned as us fans are. I was reading about this on panthers.com. There was a QandA and someone asked about why they were only wearing blue once. The response: Apparently, the preseason is counted in the total of 3. And the Panthers absolutely refuse to wear black on the road early in the year (including preseason). So between the game against WAS that was just too darn hot to wear black and the NFL totally unfairly forcing them count their "second primary" helmet as an alternate, there's only one game left to wear blue. See, they're the victims. They had no say in the matter at all. (Ironic if you can't tell) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
