floydnimrod Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Texans had one of my favorite sets in the NFL. But only teams that are old as :censored: are allowed to keep their uniforms for too long. Their look didn't do something that overtly modern at the time and felt it like it could last a while. If the Texas uniforms were dated, then so are the Colts, Packers, and Steelers.

CaliforniaGlowin Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I'm kinda let down by their early descriptions, but they aight. They tried to cover the spectrum from traditional to wild and I think they did good overall. I love the H helmet and the candy paint on it and the red one.

JayMac Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 10 hours ago, infrared41 said: Just my take, but it's like they're shouting "hey, look at us!" - just like a mid-tier college team does to try to get attention. You're not the UTEP Miners of the "who gives a conference", you're the Denver Broncos of the NFL. Dress accordingly. Your UTEP analogy is spot on. That is almost exactly who they look like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 59 minutes ago, DG_ThenNowForever said: The NCAA-ification of the NFL is a real drag. And I don't even hate the Texans, especially if they hold tight to actual home and away designations. But all of these uniform combos and billions of helmets; it cheapens the game to me. It really is an odd change in a league that treats a helmet as a logo in and of itself (and not just in the Cleveland Browns fashion). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HopewellJones Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 The red helmet and horns on the red jersey lacking white...while the numbers and pants stripes do...that's one of those inconsistencies that just drives me absolutely crazy. Really dig the home uniform. I've always had an inexplicable soft spot for TV numbers being slightly different from main numbers. Kinda ironic, given my gripes on consistency lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I elect the Jaguars and Commanders. Denver again. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this kind of assery was in the past. probably more geared towards fan jerseys since the previous ones, despite having the wordmark, didn’t have any other branding marks. I’m not a fan, but I kinda get it. 3 hours ago, Sodboy13 said: I had forgotten the Jaguars briefly had striped black pants before going all leotard. If the '98 throwbacks got made permanent, I wouldn't be averse. I loved those as an alt. They looked excellent in night games.

DCarp1231 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Houston whining about the use of light blue is hilarious. Imagine the Ravens throwing a tantrum about not being able to use the Colts blue. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SportsFan12 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 It's sad that we've reached a point where it's considered an "upgrade" if a team doesn't completely screw up their redesign, no matter how uninspiring it is. This whole process has become exhausting with all the teasers, leaks, hype videos, fake names of colors, gimmicky names of uniforms, backstories behind the most trivial uniform details, etc. I miss when a team would say they are releasing the uniforms on a certain date and then post photos of players in those uniforms on that date. Oh, and I can't even remember the last team to release a new uniform that didn't feature at least one Color Rush/monochrome uniform option. Is it a requirement at this point? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 I like that horn helmet a lot. Always nice to see teams do something more inspired than the usual logo. 1 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 These are definitely not as extreme as I feared. The home and road uniforms are pretty solid, though I still don't like how Navy blue-heavy they are, even more-so now. They also need to both be either using the bullhorn striping or the logo patch; I don't like the inconsistency there. The alternate reds are too much for me with all the excessive red. Plus, the horn decal on the helmet is very hard to see without any white included. The H-Town uniform isn't as awful as I would've imagined, but like with their Color Rush's previously, it's just so pointless given that they already have another uniform that is Navy blue. The Texans new look is overall fine. It's different enough to grab your attention, but I really don't know if I would say they're an upgrade or even a downgrade. Just... a little different. I give them a C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infrared41 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 1 hour ago, YelichGraphics said: I've simply never understood this take. What makes having more options less professional? What makes having combinations and the ability to put show your brand in an another way that it contrasts the competitors brand on the same playing field. How about this? We've reached the point where even logo geeks like us can tune in an NBA game and have no idea who's playing because the teams have so many uniforms. It's like if Coca-Cola had 20 different "can combos" for Coke Classic and most of them had an alternate logo and colors. That's how it dilutes the brand. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
