dcameronh Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I know it may have been talked about in the 2009 NFL changes thread or elsewhere but sence there was a thread for the logos why not for the uniforms. Post here what you think the unifroms should be for the original AFL teams having their 50th anniversary this next year or if you know what they will be for sure. IMO, I think for uniforms they should all go with these from the 1960 season. My favorite is the Broncos with those vertical striped socks.AFL West:RaidersBroncosChiefs/TexansChargers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEWJ Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I think I read somewhere that the Bills will stick with there throwback that they've been wearing, and the Jets will don a Titans throwback just like the ones they've worn, only white. | BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANS | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrBear Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 If they're not going to wear 1960 unis - the Broncos, that is - I'd like to see the Jets wear the helmets they wore in their first year as the Jets, with the jet-plane logo on the helmet.

oo_nrb Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 I agree. It would be wild with those socks though.I thought they supposedly burned all those socks.They did, but I believe the HOF has a pair.Yep, most of the socks/unis that could be found were burned in a public bonfire. Only a few pairs are still in existence, and the HOF has one of them. And that's the way it should stay. The Broncos can honor their history via uniform as long as they start in 1962. Orange and blue, not mustard and poop. I'd love to see some old uniforms come back...but not those ones.Fun fact: the socks were the first Denver Bronco related items to make it into the HOF, well before Elway. 2011 Colorado Rockies | Season from Hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chargers for their AFL championship and the Raiders for the first year of Al Davis taking over.So those Chargers helmets from 1963 have a sheild on the front. Will they have that?Uniforn in question: http://footballuniformhistory.com/images/1960/SanDiego63.gifAlso something else I thought of. If all teams are only allowed to have three different uniforms (home. away & alt... not including the number of color combonations with pants and what not), do teams like San Diego have to give up their current alternate for this year to be able to ware the throwback alternate?

MJWalker45 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 I'm sure they NFL will give them special permission to have 4 jerseys but probably say they can only wear each alternate once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
