Colts in Blue Pants

Didn't they just wear those for 1 year?

I think it was Ron Meyer's last year there.

I am pretty sure they wore them against Pittsburgh in the Harbaugh AFC title game for the '94 season. So that may be the season they wore them.

Even bigger mystery (for me, at least...)

Did the Giants wear white hats with their TATC jerseys? I surely don't remember that. I vividly recall the D-Backs, Mets, and Red Sox sporting the ice cream lids as full-time alts, however, but not the Giants. Confirmation on this, anyone? :therock:

They wore them early in the 1995 season (Marchibroda's last). They were banned by the NFL because the Colts never contacted the league office to have them approved.

And the game was the '95 AFC Championship Game, not '94.

I really liked the Colts blue pants. I don't see why the Colts didn't keep them after the '95 season (unless the league shot it down again). It could have been a good luck/winning-type thing, kinda like how the Chiefs went back to red pants on the road several year back.

It was a good luck / bad luck thing. I think they lost 2 of 3 regular season games in them and they were talking about scrapping them before the league made the decision for them.

I went to the NFL Hall of Fame yesterday and they had an IMAX movie presentation which featured many clips of the Lions in those Blue Pants. I think both those and the colts blue pants looked really nice.

How about these blue pants?!

Ah, but this picture does not do justice to the Lions' blue-panted season, as it fails to show the glory of the grey sock. Man, I loved that look. Ditto for the Colts' blue pants.
