boardname Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Black with blue numbers. At least it wont be 100% identical to Carolina, who has black with white numbers outlined in blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackerBadger Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Black with BLUE numbers? That'll make the Cardinals' jerseys look much better by comparison. Why didn't those idiots use dark blue instead of black? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Blue numbers? Good deal. A couple of Lions alt concepts were posted on here a while back, and the ones with blue numbers looked so much better (and more Lions-ish) than ones with white numbers. On the ones with white numbers, blue was barely visible anywhere on the jersey.Here was my idea, though I imagine it's safe to disregard the blue pants and grey socks as a personal pipe dream of mine.

MonkeyWrench32 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I feel a bout of nausea coming on... I absolutely HATE the idea of blue numbers on black. They're too damn hard to see!And yes, I'm in the "the Lions should've used Midnight Blue" camp. *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCScout76 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Sodboy,That's a very nice concept - I like the black alt. with the blue #s-the white trim make it stand out very nicely. How about a version with silver pants??Wanna take a crack at it Sodboy?Nice job!!!

CMUBrent Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Black alternates don't sound that bad, but I hope Lions fans never have to see the blue pants again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcgd Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I thought the black monster was dead.I knew this was coming (someone mentioned it at the same time of the new card's logo) but I'm still not happy about it. Until the Lions added black, the NFC north arguably has a whole had the best looking traditional uniforms. No major changes for decades. (vikings dropped the Northwestern striping, a couple of minor changes for the pack, nothing for the bears, nothing for the lions until...black)Next I predict unfortunatly, a Orange Bears alt.

Cujo Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Black is nice, but they still need to do something about the fifty-some stripes on their sleves. Ugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Next I predict unfortunatly, a Orange Bears alt. The Bears have an orange alternate on Madden 2005. Guess they decided to keep em locked away for another year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The throwbacks they wore this year wear similiar to the orange alt.I would think the #s would be white on the Lions alt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess they decided to keep em locked away for another year. Its not actually part of their uniform. Everyteam had a third jersey on ESPN 2k5 (ex: Vikings and Packers Gold...yeesh!)The orange throwback was actually worn. It was a hybrid of a couple year's uniforms from the 40's basterized by the wrong font. Didn't look bad but the blue on white looks just too damn good to throw away by wearing an orange alt or throwback more than once a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you've ever played Madden, you'll know that they don't put jerseys on their games unless they're currently used or throwbacks. That is why I was under the impression the Bears would bust out with orange jerseys during the 2004 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have been a throwback on there then, cause it was not part of their uniform package last year as an alternate. I trust PANTONE over Madden.

Chazberg Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 That orange alt. in Madden '05 was prolly supposed to be the throwback they wore on Thanksgiving, I guarantee in this year's game it will be corrected with the solid navy block numbers. Let us pray the Bears never take the field in anything but navy or white.... charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxSteeler Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Thats a fashion jersey that has been out for a couple of years now. It looks like Madden puts non-field used jerseys in their game too.Detroit in black will look like puke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac6674 Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I think Oakland has a silver alt on Madden, although, it's hard to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
