gothedistance Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 There is another thread about when teams will be wearing their third jerseys. I thought of doing this, a white at home for the 2010 NFL season. Lets name an instance that a team will be wearing white at home. Teams who will be doing it this season.I'll avoid the obvious one for the start of this.The Titans will wear white for their home opener against the Raiders on 9/12. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/trainingcamp10/columns/story?columnist=schefter_adam&id=5452369Tennessee has a game the following week against the Steelers who also have a black jersey. Wouldn't they want to wear white for that game as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redskins like to wear white a lot, and so do the Dolphins... Typically, not always, but most of the time. Cowboys - Lakers - LAFC - USMNT - LA Rams - LA Kings - NUFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gothedistance Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 I was saying that I would avoid the obvious ones. Those 3 teams are an example of what I mean.Dallas wore white for their Thanksgiving games in 2007 against the Jets and in 2008 against the Seahawks. The Cowboys wear their throwbacks on Thanksgiving or for a home game near Thanksgiving.I'm not sure about the Redskins this year. They have a new coach. Along with other staff members. Who may be changing things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HedleyLamarr Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Carolina and Tampa Bay tend to wear white at home in September and maybe even October.I wonder if the Saints will wear white for their first home game, especially since they won the Super Bowl in their away jerseys....

gothedistance Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 The Panthers posted their jersey schedule up. If someone wants to do the honors, show that link. I don't feel like doing it.All of the NFC South teams wear white at home for September and October. I think Tampa Bay wears white until the end of October.I'm going to list the amount of times teams that wore white at home for a certain season. I'll do that after I come back.

cheo25 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 All of the NFC South teams wear white at home for September and October. I think Tampa Bay wears white until the end of October.That's incorrect. Atlanta has worn dark jerseys every game in the Mike Smith era -- either red, alternate black or throwback black.

mmejia Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 As usual, the Texans will only wear white jerseys at home for the opener.. all-white look vs Indy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Actually I do believe teh Saints wore white at home a few times. I heard something the only team that never wore white at home is the Seahawks. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrookedThumb Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 All of the NFC South teams wear white at home for September and October. I think Tampa Bay wears white until the end of October.I think Tampa Bay always wears white the for the first four home games, then red for the last four. Last year was an exception because the fourth "home" game was in London, and they wore red for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atlanta has worn dark jerseys every game in the Mike Smith era -- either red, alternate black or throwback black.Since 2000 (shoot, since they've moved to the Dome), I can only remember there being one time where the Falcons wore white at home, it was against the Bengals in either 2002 or 2003. More than likely it's 2002. Either way, cheo's correct. The Falcons rarely ever wear white at home. It's either red or black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gothedistance Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 This is how many teams have worn white at home for one particular season since the league realignment in 2002. Counting from 2009 back to 2002.2009: 15 teams2008: 15 teams2007: 13 teams2006: 15 teams2005: 14 teams2004: 14 teams2003: 14 teams2002: 15 teamsThe Patriots had silver jerseys from 2003-2007 and Saints had a gold jersey in 2002 that were worn, which were treated as light jerseys.Right now we have 9 teams confirmed that will be wearing white at home this season.

He originally listed the Falcons wearing white for every 2000 home game except against the Panthers. He has it corrected now. I told him other omissions and errors as well.

Last year was an exception because the fourth "home" game was in London, and they wore red for that. I was looking back. The same was with the 2008 season. The fourth home game that year was a night game against the Seahawks. Bucs wore red jersey with white pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
