DCarp1231 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 First things first, I’d like to thank @infrared41 for his dedicated years of doing these threads. I’ll try my best to keep it alive. Lets hop in to it- Best Packers @ Falcons The Atlanta throwbacks really tied this game together for me (Even if I’m not a huge fan of GB’s uniforms). Raiders @ Bills I was in Buffalo, but left town a day before this game. Wish I stuck around for it. An all-time matchup when the Bills don’t go blueberry on us. Dolphins @ Patriots Phew, cream of the crop for this week. So much vibrancy. Miami sacrificed what could’ve been a true throwback game in order to wear aqua pants and it all worked out magnificently. Well done for the Sunday night cap. Honorable Mention Chiefs @ Jaguars Much like Miami-New England, a ton of vibrancy, but Jacksonville opting for white socks threw the whole look off. KC is par for the course. Worst Giants @ Cardinals Too much red. Puke inducing. Death to the white pants. Enough said. Browns @ Steelers Hate Pittsburgh’s number font. Hated the grotesque white helmets for Cleveland even more. Wild Card Bears @ Buccaneers Up in the air on this one. Once again a very vibrant game thanks to Chicago’s orange helmet and jersey combo in the Florida sun, but it’s not something I’m overly excited about. It’s fine for a one-off game this early in the season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared41 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Best List: You went two for four with #1 and #2 being correct. You're kidding with #3 and #4, right? Worst List: The Giants cancel out the Cardinals so you're wrong on that one. Browns - Steelers looked more than good enough to avoid a spot on the worst list. Wildcard: I kind of agree, but I can't get past how silly the Bears look in orange. Maybe if it were another team. When you asked me if you could take this over, I was a little reluctant, but then I realized I could sit here and snipe from the sidelines. This is going to be fun. 2 1 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not So Close Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Glad this is back. Anyways to me the Patriots and Dolphins had the best match up, followed by Packers v. Falcons and Chiefs v. Jaguars. I do wanna add the Cowboys vs Jets was a sneaky good color match up in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arizona could’ve went white pants. • Meh, agree to disagree on CLE-PIT • I look forward to the shots. Cheers 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're kidding with #3 and #4, right? Please expand on this snipe, both games looked great. Browns-Steelers matchup does not earn a worst slot IMO. Arguably belongs as an honorable mention, though I would agree the orange helmet is superior and the white alt helmet was never necessary.

Since they dropped the blue outlines the only real problems with the Dolphins uniforms is the logo. Any helmet wearing Dolphin is better than the soulless resort/cruise line/toothpaste one.

I think Miami nailed their new logo. (Do we call it the Cyberdolphin?) Glad Miami moved off theor previous logo, as it would look sooo out of place with their current uniform. To add, cute animals/dudes wearing a helmets in logos got pretty campy and outdated, like some of their contemporaries at the time. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
