The Vikings eventually switched to purple jerseys at half time and were mono for the rest of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Close the collar and change the pants to white with blue-yellow-blue striping, and you have one heck of a Rams uniform. And I don’t even like navy blue for them. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado State vs Oregon with the Ducks in their retro kelly green/yellow set, and the Rams in some gaudy yellow jerseys. An old youth football coach of mine actually played in this game. What an eyesore of a matchup though, almost an inter-team scrimmage given the same colors and inverted usage of them. Gold (Colorado State) and yellow (Oregon) do NOT contrast well. Especially when you consider that the difference between them is less a bright line and more of a continuum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruhammydude Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Interesting enough that not a single game this year in the NFL was color vs color (minus the wolf Gray Seahawks), the first of it's kind since 2014. Also, this was the first year in a while that no New Year's 6 bowls were color vs color. With that being said, I feel this one has been long forgotten: (Bears @ Cowboys, 2004) Also, who remembers the Patriots' silver jerseys? 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially that Jaguars uniform. I'd say that is true of this entire thread. Some of us have forgotten some of these. All of us haven't forgotten all of these. 1 Quote It's where I sit.

Old School Fool Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Cowboys at Chiefs in 2009. Both teams wore throwbacks creating an NFL vs. AFL throwback game between the 1960 Dallas Texans and the 1960 Dallas Cowboys. It's the only time the Cowboys ever wore throwbacks on the road. Watch it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5izl4DZW2ZE Also another Cowboys game is one on Thanksgiving 2001 against the Broncos. After only 5 years, the Broncos wore the Orange Crush uniforms as a throwback. Here's a pointless fact: The Cowboys actually wore the white double star jersey in a Preseason game against the Broncos in 1995 so this wasn't the only time the Double Star and Orange Crush faced off. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That Falcons’ look is salvageable if you have the black start fading back into red toward the bottom of the pants, maybe on the socks, and then use red shoes. I’m sure that is unpopular. I don’t care. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hawks’ gradient uniforms were red at the shoulders, red right above the knees, and black in between. The Falcons could work with something like that, but the way it is now looks unbalanced.

Or just not have unnecessary gradients. There is really no reason for them based on the rest of their branding. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southern Miss at least wore yellow-gold, right? Not enough contrast either way - gold and yellow don’t contrast well - but it would at least let you know who is who.

There is really no reason for them based on the rest of their branding. I think they tie into the “ATL” thing. The Atlanta Hawks have had many, many uniforms over the years, but the red-black-red gradient is among their most distinctive (not necessarily in a good way, but distinctive nonetheless), while also using the Falcons’ main colors.

Yes, something of a one off mishmash throwback: 60s helmet, 30s jersey and 1941-present pants. 1 Quote A strong mind gets high off success, a weak mind gets high off bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
