infrared41's Best and Worst: NFL Week 15 - 2022

[infrared41]

Decent week of match ups that could have been better if certain teams hadn't made bad choices, but as we all know, bad uniform choices are what NFL teams do. And for the love of God, can we please do something about the white socks? They look awful.

 

Let's play our game.

 

BEST

 

1. Eagles - Bears: This one got the top spot mostly because the Bears have one of the best home uniforms in the NFL. Add in a very solid Eagles road uniform and this one gets the nod in a competitive, but unspectacular week. The sunshine didn't hurt either.

 

 

 

2. Patriots - Raiders: The Raiders have one of the best uniforms in all of football. I like the Pats road set, but I don't like it quite as much as I like Philly's and that's how this game got the #2 slot. Some of you might say that this game deserved the top spot and you'll have a solid argument if you do. It was a close call.

 

 

 

3. Chiefs - Texans: Normally, I don't put a lot of thought into how the colors match up (until I do), but I really like how the colors worked together in this one.  The Chiefs are perfect and even though it's getting a little long in the tooth,  I like still really like this Texans combo. Good looking game.

 

 

 

4. Colts - Vikings: From the knees up, this was a good looking match up, but all the white long johns kept this game from looking great. The NFL needs to step in and fix this socks problem.

 

 

 

WORST

 

1.Cardinals - Broncos: Welcome to the 2022 "Please put us out of our misery and fix these God-awful uniforms" Bowl. This should be against the law.

 

 

 

2. The Buffalo Bills: What is it with NFL teams picking their worst look for national TV games? Who says "Hey, I got invited to a black tie event. It's the perfect time to bust out my Vanilla Ice t-shirt, a denim jacket, some torn jeans, and a pair of Vans?" Other than NFL teams, I mean.

 

 

 

3. Falcons - Saints: These teams have two of the best uniforms in the league. Now if we could just get them to wear those uniforms full time.

 

 

That's it for this week. Have a Merry Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, and a joyous holiday season. We'll do it all again next week.

If the players want to wear compression tights instead of team-color socks, can't the league at least get someone to provide some tights with the appropriate colors and/or stripes?  It's almost 2023, we can't sublimate some sock stripes on a pair of leggings?

The worst part is that they chose to wear these instead of the standing buffalo throwbacks that they could have worn for this game.  This game could have been the standing buffalo vs the helmet-wearing dolphin instead.

What a missed opportunity
