gothedistance Posted Sunday at 02:19 AM Share Posted Sunday at 02:19 AM 9 hours ago, ruttep said: These "white overload" (all white vs white leggings) games have become a thing in recent years and it's infuriating. Especially since most of the time, the dark jersey/ white leggings looks weren't even designed for leggings, it's just that when given the choice, the vast majority of players these days don't want to wear contrasting socks. It's been suggested that the color rush program (which ended after 2017) started teams' bad obsession on these things. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnPheitseog Posted Sunday at 03:01 AM Share Posted Sunday at 03:01 AM Honestly, lets embrace the white leggings. White leggins replace the sanitaries and then put a sleeve sock(think like soccer) on top. We get the look we all want, players get to have their comfort.

The traditional look for football is to have a half white sock and half colour. By replacing the white sock with a white legging and keeping the upper colour sock, it gets us something really close to the traditional look. Even half and half leggings or proper colours, while better than just white, doesnt get the same look. Quote Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The solid color socks have grown on me, even white in the right circumstances. I don't think the traditional socks are coming back without league enforcement, and the league doesn't seem interested in that, so this is the next best thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodell's Goons seem to have given up entirely on enforcing uniform standards. They would probably allow Sean Taylor's facemask taping with no fines in this day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreamSoda Posted Sunday at 02:54 PM Share Posted Sunday at 02:54 PM Does Denver not have their orange uniforms yet? So strange to not wear orange at home in the preseason and now again for the home opener. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a majority of them legitimately think having no contrast with the pants or wearing white socks with a uniform absolutely not designed for white socks looks good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naturally, the second the actual weather gets icy, they’ll stop wearing white at home. They’ll probably try to ice out their pants and socks as often as not, though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So strange to not wear orange at home in the preseason and now again for the home opener. It's most likely because of Sean Payton. He had the Saints in white jerseys at home for a lot of his time in New Orleans. The Broncos' owner gave him a lot of power in the Denver job.
