Well, looking at things positively, the players hate the tights too, but for the wrong reason, though. Is it that hard to wear Crew or Knee-High socks? Also, Lions confirm Throwbacks. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simtek34 Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Vikings confirm another "Winter Whiteout" for the Week 16 Home Game versus the Detroit Lions. I'm guessing this unfortunately means White Leggings again as they did last year. https://www.vikings.com/winter-whiteout Trust me, when they wear Purple Socks, I LOVE the White-on-White look. The White Socks/Leggings just ruin the look. And TBH, if they HAD to make a Whiteout game a new tradition, it would be the perfect excuse for a White Throwback to be added into the rotation to go along with the Purple Throwback. Also, it would be a great reason to kill off their Color Rush. 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need that in today's NFL. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On topic of the discussion, unfortunately, the "uniformity" part of "uniform" is non-existent now. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Vikings really went from Bud Grant's uniformity to an all purple color rush on Thanksgiving last year where Justin Jefferson selfishly wearing black socks actually marginally improved the look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love JJ, he's a great Wide Receiver and hope he's healthy, but his Socks/Leggings choices aren't the best. He always wears White Leggings, even when the rest of the team has Purple on. He was the only player wearing White Leggings during the Week 1 Throwback game when everyone else had the traditional Half-Purple/Half-White Socks, for instance. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s weird: he went from a purple and yellow school to a purple and yellow pro team, yet he seems to have a problem with purple. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they wore this as the alternate with the new black helmet and pants instead of the throwback uniform with the black helmets, it'd be a good look. Even here it's a good look, but a black helmet improves it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kinda wish they had a Madden+Summerall combo patch. I associate each with each other, and while I get why they link Madden to Thanksgiving more, I still consider both of them part of the experience. 7 "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

No joke, I heard multiple people who thought the patch was a Native American because the league was honoring them on Thanksgiving. If you look at it very quickly, it does kind of look like the old Washington logo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
