Not sure why Jacksonville hasn't capitalized on introducing them as a Throwback set...they'd sell a whole bunch of replica jerseys. The number font hasn't stood the test of time but the rest of the uniform would be just fine in 2024 and beyond. This uniform, with their current number font and logo would be a great next (and final) uniform design should they move on from the Coughlin-era unis. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've gradually been phasing out the bone, but beyond that they seem pretty attached to the other logos/uniforms. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he didn't mention CCSLC which is a humongous blunder. By the way I don't agree with him that New York Sack Exchange uniforms is the best one for Jets. I like Brodway Joe era much better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way I don't agree with him that New York Sack Exchange uniforms is the best one for Jets. I like Brodway Joe era much better. There’s no unanimous opinion on Jets’ best uniform. My personal favorites are the ‘90s look (New York Sack Exchange plus minimal black trim) and the first few years of the throwback look (1998-2001, I think), before the shade of green was darkened and became unpleasant. But there are plenty who agree with you; plenty who want NYSE; plenty who want 1998-era. Nobody is clamoring for the mismatched greens of the pre-2019 Nike era, and I don’t think anybody would say their current look is their best, and my love for the 1990-97 look is probably rare given how bad they were in it. But everything else is basically on the table for debate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate what you're saying but yeah, as a lifelong Jets fan I think the 1998 Vinny T/Curtis Martin reboot of the classic uniforms was the best they've ever looked. I hate the 80s look, very amateurish and generic. That helmet logo was just bad graphic design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYSE is ok and has one huge advantage over Namath look that I think everyone agree with that, it's simple and fit to basically every template. Take batwing, add stripes and voilla. Namath era has problem with that, but is more unique compare to NYSE. I hope nike somehow find a way to make nice shoulder stripes which help Jets went back to Broadway Joe look and with two helmets rule they could make NYSE their 3rd and 4th uniforms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current wussy rounded block numbers are boring and much worse. Yeah I just disagree. I think it looks dated in a way that doesn’t even make it good for a Throwback and I think their current font is one of the best in the league. My opinion: “boring” is good for name & number fonts. Where things go sideways is when people think numbers are supposed to be fancy & artful. They always become dated (if they ever work at all). They are simply player identifiers and should thus be clean, simple, legible, and not distract from or compete with the rest of the uniform. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 If this is the "Garrard era" jersey, then it's absolutely not worth being brought back as a throwback. I can't speak for their fans, but I can't imagine there's any connection to that uniform or any form of nostalgia there. And that number font is laughable. Fortunately, I think it'd be too tough to recreate on Nike's silly-ass templates, which may be the only positive thing that I can say about them. 7 Quote "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."

Boselli-era. Brunell-era. McCardell-Smith-era. Tony Freakin' Brackens-era. Anything but David Garrard-era (he was only the starter in that uniform for 2 seasons). 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOOVER Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 To continue the Jag-jacking of this thread, if/when Jacksonville finally does a Throwback uniform to this beloved set, I'd argue they should go all the way back to the beginning, not just 1997: These block number bad boys made for a very good uniform. Still, I'm on the side of things that says their current Coughlin-era set are still very, very good (when the right combos are worn): Keep these, wear them right (Teal/White/Teal or Black, White/Teal/White or Black, Black/White/Black, Black/Teal/Black, never any Black pants), and introduce the '95-96 set and as their Throwback and they're good to go forever. If they *need* a Color Rush (b/c NFL/NIKE), add a Matte White helmet and wear White/White/White to finally achieve the Snow Leopard look they've teased in marketing. It is not difficult. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
