ltjets21 Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 2 hours ago, CDCLT said: No, the goal was to get it closer to the team's official shade of blue, Panthers Blue (or Process Blue), that Nike was unable to properly recreate when the NFL made the switch in the early 2010s, whenever it was. Presumably Reebok had been able to properly produce Panthers blue so the new blue jerseys look more like the pre-Nike set. May be just lighting but I think last years blue looks closer to the Reebok blue than the current blue. Could need to take a look at the color palette though.

That's why they have pretty much worn Navy pants for all home games. But this season they replaced their home grass with synthetic turf. Only one preseason game but they wore Navy over White. They have worn white pants on grass several times, but not often. Such a weird excuse for a professional football organization with top-of-the-line equipment management staff. No other teams seem to have this issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's an excuse, they're probably just trying to make life a little easier for their staff. I could definitely see them wearing the white pants at home more often this year. Didn't realize they had a new field and was totally thrown off when I put the game on last Friday. Grass is far superior aesthetically.

Their regular uniforms have never had light blue socks, though, and they’ve never worn them with navy pants - and the current set has never had them at all.

gothedistance Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Chargers uniform schedule is out. They'll wear powder blue for 7 of their 9 home games. They'll wear them on the road in Tennessee and the New York Jets. Navy blue against the Ravens and royal blue against the Broncos. I guess they aren't a WAH team anymore. I liked seeing the all white uniform at SoFi Stadium with the paint of the Chargers on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsFan12 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Jets white at home on Monday Night Football in November. Really? The alternate jersey choices are pretty weak too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fouhy12 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Seems like we can count on the Jets being a WAH team again this year if that's the case. Disappointing. Hopefully they don't continue to use the black pants and socks with the white jerseys at least, but I'm not optimistic. 3 Quote fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigFiz21 Posted August 30, 2023 Share Posted August 30, 2023 Well, of all the matchups between teams that reveal their uniform plans this late or wait until the week of, Ravens-Chargers has been ruined for me. Then again, we know these crashers are inevitable every season. All the Bolts had to do was go with the standard power blue jersey (don't care for their pant selection) for that SNF game and all is good on their end; I would have even accepted them going royal blue if they truly insisted on wearing an alternate come game time. Hopefully the Ravens wear white/purple that night and show up as the best dressed team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they transition to green (and black) for the second half of the season again this year. We do know they are wearing black for the Black Friday game, but there's still Week 13 vs. ATL, Week 14 vs. HOU, and Week 16 vs. WAS that will hopefully have them in green. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One (or both?) is considered Color Rush, which is still a thing when teams need/want it to be. Believe the rule is the 2 alternates have to be some combo of color swap/throwback/color rush. Though given the Rams bone and Commies' black military cosplay I'm not sure that color swap rule still exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were a WAH team until last year. Before last year, the Chargers wore their white jerseys for 2, or even 3, homes games early in the season.
