IMO - and I remember it live - this was awful.  Way too bottom heavy, though the white socks helped.

 

For better or for worse, the "Colts look" is white pants and white pants only.  While I do think that gray could work (just not the way they did it when they tried in the '80s) it's still just change for change's sake.  Sorry, but the Colts are blue over white and white over white.

 

 

I may not agree but I think the Colts definitely did in 1995. I had remembered Indy wearing them the whole season but my memory was shoddy. According to the GUD, the Colts wore them for the first three weeks of the 1995 season (including one white-at-home game) and then promptly abandoned them, ne'er to be seen again. This was also the first year of the Colts three year experiment with black cleats.
 

One thing that did last after being introduced in 1995 was the blue facemask. I had thought the blue masks debuted earlier but nope. They came right along with the blue britches.

 

I don't know if I'd want them to roll with the blue facemask now but I'd definitely go with blue over white or black. I liked the grey facemask when it came back but mind you, facemask architecture has changed dramatically since 2003.

my main problem with this look is that the stripes on the pants are Navy/Silver/Navy, while the helmet is Navy/White/Navy. Also, Navy socks would look better with it. 

 

Did not notice that part...yeah, I can see how that creates a bit of a mismatch.

It does need navy socks. And this coming Thursday Night against the Tennessee Titans.

 

 

Couldn't Dallas have done this against a team with a different colorway??

[SportsFan12]

Bills have still not worn blue pants at Cincinnati. It's been all-white all three times they've gone there since 2011. Boy would those blue bottoms clash nicely with this look and spare us double white pants for this huge game.

I know this is an old gripe, but the "TBD" pants on the matchup displays really ruins it. It just takes up a bunch of space on the page and it's not nearly as exciting anymore. 

 

But for the pants that ARE shown...my god, the Cowboys...if they're truly gonna wear those pants with a silver stripe down the middle. That's the kind of thing that just drives me up a wall. You go with this Navy/White scheme and then completely ruin it with the inconsistent pants.

Dallas does have the 1960 throwback pants with the navy/white/navy stripe that they could wear. Unlikely that they wear it, but it does exist.

Maybe for next season the template can be smaller? It's a lot of scrolling for a lot of TBD.

Lions are wearing throwbacks vs. Chicago, as they did in their home finale last season.

It's a lot of scrolling for TBD that most of us never go back to when the matchups are actually confirmed. I appreciate his work, but if I want to see all of the week's uniform matchups, I'll just go to Gridiron Uniforms where I can see all of them at once

The Jaguars and Buccaneers play each other next year. All of the games in Tampa have been the Bucs in white jerseys and the Jags in their dark jersey. Jacksonville winning the AFC South might help  get that game to be put on primetime. They also would draw the 49ers, as the NFC West  and AFC South have each other for the same place finisher  in 2023 for the 17th cross conference game. I liked the 49ers white/gold vs Jaguars teal/white in 2021, and would like to see it again, provided that game is beyond September.

Titans going for three straight home losses in this trash combo that no one on Earth isn’t sick of by now.

Maybe a side-by-side for each matchup rather than each team on its own row would provide an easier-to-consume visual of the matchup as well as reduce the scrolling by half.

I think I like this combo the best, idk the navy helmet ruined their combos. There’s not many good ones anymore.

Better be careful. Mods have made it clear that we're not allowed to complain and @canzman has made it clear that he does this for himself and doesn't care about our "self-serving, entitled, millennial mentality."

Y’all still out here being all Grumpy Gills.

 

[SportsFan12]

Looks like teal pants with black socks. Finally wearing this look against Houston. Great contrast.

Woof, how long has it been since we had a decent, colorful, contrasting matchup between these two, with the Texans already confirmed navy/white? And WTB for the first time in two years! I'm praying on my hands and knees that they're not planning on busting out the color rush a second time for the finale next week, and they finish the season strong by going teal over white against the Titans for the first time with this set. Then, (hopefully) finally, a home playoff game in this set.

They’re really calling it “arctic”

If the Titans are planning on keeping this set, I’d be fine if their home was N/CB/N. At least get some color blocking

[Froob]

I wouldn’t mind if cowboys were a white helmet team still (not suggesting change, just saying it’s a great look). That set looks great.
