I am still cool with any team with a bad/mediocre set like them or Atlanta mixing and matching like this, as it brings more color into the uniform and give us something new. There are more than enough black and white pants around the league these days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Outside of a Color Rush, the Falcons have never worn red pants. Don't see why we need them now, considering the minimal amount of red on the jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SportsFan12 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 This team always seems to bust out this combo for the first time in Week 10. Third such occasion since 2018. Great choice against Denver. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 The NFL needs a uniform czar whose entire job is to tell teams what to wear so something like Ravens-Saints never happens again. Like the Ravens and Saints submit their uniform combinations before the game and then I tell the Ravens that the Saints are wearing all black and they get preference as the home team so they have to wear white or purple pants. I believe soccer leagues have some sort of procedure for this. Just some common sense decision making would be nice. Okay fine I'll do it. 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Falcons don't have side panels. It's a thin stripe, and it looks good. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe soccer leagues have some sort of procedure for this. Just some common sense decision making would be nice. Okay fine I'll do it. I'm not disagreeing. However, in soccer this is done specifically to avoid confusion for the players. Clashes aren't allowed between shirts, shorts or socks on the theory that players may confuse players from both teams based on similarly colored items of clothing in the mass of legs. Presumably, no one in football considers matching pants or socks to be an issue on that basis . . . or even helmets, for that matter. As an aside, my recollection is that the Bills originally switched to red helmets to help Joe Ferguson spot receivers. At the time four of the five teams in the AFC East wore white helmets, so at least six games a year matched white helmets. 1 Most Liked Content of the Day -- February 15, 2017, August 21, 2017, August 22, 2017 ///// Proud Winner of the CCSLC Post of the Day Award -- April 8, 2008 Originator of the Upside Down Sarcasm Smilie -- November 1, 2005 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsFan12 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Why is it that teams always seem to go on these mysterious win streaks in their worst combos? Last year it happened with the Eagles’ black pants and this year the Jets. Plus Bills all-blue. And then teams like the Titans in light blue pants or Pats in silver pants for the first time in years always seem to lose. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of teams wear crap uniforms so we're bound to get a winning streak in them every year just based on the sheer volume of garbage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsFan12 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 There seems to be a czar within the Jags' organization who demands that this boring combo be worn for 90% of away games. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular white at home does now typically come in the beginning of the season, but I had a feeling this might have been the white throwback game, which does usually happen in the middle somewhere.
