Lights Out Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I don't like white helmets for the Broncos as anything more than an occasional alternate look. Especially with a mostly-white logo, and being in the same division as the Chargers. But from the neck down, I don't see what the problem would be with those uniforms. I like the mountain motif, and it ties the Broncos in with every other team in Denver. 1 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rams replace the gray pants with white and the gray jersey with yellow or drop the gray altogether. 3. No more white socks with white pants, even for Color Rush jerseys. 4. The NFL requires uniforms to be uniform. I can't think of any reason why the NFL can't require all players to wear matching uniforms. You'd be surprised how many times I've watched Eagles games this year looking for players wearing black socks. While we're at it, can we make sure undershirts don't hang out and down past the players butts? 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That robo-horse is mostly white and would look incomprehensible on a white helmet. Even Elway can see that. Right? Stevie Wonder can see that.

thisguyphelps Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 The Right thing to do: Texans - slight updates and tweaks of current set, with interchangeable blue/red helmets Lions - Barry Sanders Era with updated logo Broncos - thru 1996 uniforms with updated D logo and royal blue alternate jerseys and orange pants as an alt 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I... don't hate it? I don't really buy that the uniforms will actually resemble that design, but it makes for some interesting combos. I particularly like the white/navy/white and the white/orange/white. If they absolutely have to use the "5280," I would have the numbers upright instead of sideways. My ideal Broncos uniform set, similar to @tBBP, would be the '65-'66 set (that picture is approaching Rams' 50's yellow jersey painting territory of ubiquity, which I have contributed to), with the blue helmet. I'd also have either orange or white as an occasional alternate helmet, as well as a blue alternate jersey, and orange & blue pants as options. It's a toss-up for me between the cyberhorse and the D-horse logo, both are well and good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The undershirt not being tucked in, no sock matching, and the pants down to mid thigh are my biggest pet peeves at the moment. It's just an awful look all the way around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tBBP Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 It must just be me, but I thought the 5280 ft thing in regards to Denver was pretty common knowledge. 13 Quote *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had forgotten about that. Oh..... Well, this 5,280 stuff is great knowledge, but why put it on a jersey if it does not make sense to anything? Ehhhhhh, nope, sorry!

oldschoolvikings Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 If you walked up to me on the street and asked me how many feet were in a mile I’d tell you 5280. But if you randomly showed me a sports uniform that had that number on it, I don’t know that I’d immediately make the connection that that’s how many feet were in a mile, and that team is therefore from a city that’s a mile above sea level and blah blah… Because it’s stupid. 3 1 Quote http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When any element needs explaining of a backstory, it's crap. Sadly modern sports uniforms love this bull:censored:. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
