2024 NFL Season week by week uniform match-up combos: From HOF Game to Super Bowl LIX

[Cujo]

Is there even a single Dallascowboys fan out there who would be upset with this tweak?

Everyone here wanting the Cowboys to turn into the dark Colts or dark Lions. The Cowboys have one of the most iconic home jerseys in sports. Yeah it's mishmashed blues and silvers but it is unique to them and I don't see them changing it anytime soon.

I feel like we have this conversation about the cowboys every few months lol. Along with the Washington Commanders name change

My Lord, that’s boring.  They need to match the helmet to the pants, not the other way around.  
 

Navy and silver sucks.

No you don't understand! It was originally conceived as a color rush jersey in 2015, so they are required to wear boring socks with the uniform in 2024.

 

Guess again. Here are some examples of that being false.

 

The Seahawks have worn navy pants and socks with their green jersey.

The Browns have worn orange socks with their CR jersey.

The Raiders now wear silver pants and black socks with their CR jersey.

 

All Dallas would have to do is redesignate their CR jersey as a third jersey to bypass any rules about CR being a single base color below the neck. The only thing stopping Dallas from adding navy socks is an unwillingness to do so.

The worst part of the Cowboys uniform is the black trim on the jersey stripes. Like where did that come from?

Looks like we have some disagreement here I think the solution is to... leave things the way they are.

 

Seriously. The weird pants are iconic at this point for the Cowboys. And they have other uniform combos that do match. Everyone recognizes them for their main uniform, though.

Unique ≠ Good

Reminder that this should be the Cowboys primary helmet AND jersey

I wouldn't mind the Cowboys going with an white helmet for a rebrand/new look, to harken back to the 60's, at least they they'll be able to streamline the blue mess they have going on.

I'm 1000% on board with making the blues consistent, but I'd prefer royal over navy.

I’d definitely pick leaving the Cowboys where they are over pairing them down to a snooze inducing navy and silver.  
 

If you want to know what the Cowboys colors should be just google some high quality images from the 70’s.

Seconded.  Pasteurizing the Cowboys identity for the sake of making a tiny subset of people happy that their colors match is not the right call.

To all the members who reacted with -- please tell me how their current whites are better.

 

 

 

None of this color chart stuff matters here.  This isn't a new franchise or brand identity that's starting from scratch.  Yes, it's odd.  It's quirky.  It doesn't make sense.   But it's a longstanding, familiar, iconic, well-known identity that's completely unique to the Dallas Cowboys.  

Changing it would be diluting the brand.  Might as well get rid of the Star while you're at it.

 

Not going to happen, nor should it.

Not every NFL color combo needs to look OMFG spectacular. 

 

And if they do change, they've already landed on navy if you check all their sideline gear and merch.

Not that there was any doubt at all, but the Saints are wearing all-white and wasting an Atlanta throwback game. They appear to be doing these player announcement things every week, which means it will probably be mono for at least 15-16 games.

They should've never changed, not sure how people can think the current uniforms look good.

University of Georgia asked Vince Lombardi permission to use that back in the mid 1960's and he allowed them to use it.
