Huh. I wonder if anyone predicted that? Are revenues, viewership, and popularity up or down? NFL brands are like Oreos…they can offer 12 different flavors but everyone still knows what a true Oreo is. 1 1 Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

My point still stands, it went from 2 designs last year and doubled this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortunat1 Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 I totally understand the fear of NFL brands becoming unidentifiable and diverting from their best looks - it's a reasonable fear given the new helmets and alternate combinations. Despite that, I don't see the issue with the red stripe for the Cowboys. The main difference between the Cowboys adding a red stripe and the Jets going mono-black is that the Cowboys are still unmistakably the Cowboys. No weird alternate uniform combination, no off-brand shell color being worn for 3 games... it's simply a stripe being worn for one game. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so, this is on brand with the cowboys as they wore this stripe design the whole season in 76 to commemorate the bicentennial. It would make sense for them to do this for salute to service etc... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockstar Matt Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 Really wish the Cowboys wouldn’t wear the French Tri-Color stripe again, but it’s pretty minor. Just wish they kept it for the bicentennial back in ‘76 and left it there. 4 Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
