Best: Colts-BearsWorst: Vikings-JaguarsAfternoon games: 49ers-Packers is going to be AWESOME.Its is however I hate the stripes on the 49ers sleeves, they look so uselessYeah they look bad, especially became th numbers are on the shoulders which provides plenty of space for ful stripes.I'm surprised more people don't complain about the packers collars, some look really terrible.

njmeadowlanders Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 I definitely have to eat some crow here, at least with the road set the Seahawks are sporting today. I actually like them on TV, they don't look NEARLY as bad as they did at the unveiling.Yes, GB/SF is gorgeous, and Bears/Colts was nice (and a SB XLI uni-rematch).I can't really notice the collars on TV from the broadcast angle. It's after a play showing a player get up from a tackle or a high five or when they show someone on the sidelines that you notice them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swilson160 Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Really wish the NFL would allow alternate helmets so the Seahawks could bust out a silver lid to match their silver pants. Would be even better at home with the silver numbers on the navy jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmejia Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 The 49ers look fantastic with their gold helmets shining under the sun. The Texans wore white over white, which has become the tradition for the home opener. That put Miami in teal over white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 It looked like Alex Smith was wearing a jersey designed completely differently from his teammates'. His sleeves had three full stripes, and the stripes ran parallel with the sleeve cuff.

That put Miami in teal over white..We may have to ask 'Colorwerx' to confirm, but to my beliefs Miami wears aqua, not teal. Jax at home wears teal ... a bit of a difference.

Kramerica Industries Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Something about white on top of most colors just looks good in the NFL aesthetics to me.I mean, taking the Niners as an example here - I dread when I see white on top of khaki. Those two paired together look washed out, and washed out is never a positive quality. Yet, the Niners manage to make a white/khaki-ish combo look good. The Seahawks belong in white/silver on the road. Hell, they should wear silver pants predominantly home or road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltere Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Browns jerseys (white, of course) still have the "AL" on the sleeve. I thought this was going away?I'm pretty sure this is it's last year and it'll be gone come 2013. 1 hour ago, BringBackTheVet said: sorry sweetie, but I don't suck minor-league d CCSLC Post of the day September 3rd 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WideRight Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Between the toilet-seat collars on many teams and the armpit sweat stains that go down both sides and across the players backs, I am already done with NIKE and want the NFL to find another company. The sweat stains were disgusting. 5 minutes into a game and every player looked like they had a 2 tone jersey on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEd76 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 The Eagles greens seem to look nicer and stand out more when they're worn on the road. Dunno why. Maybe it's because everything in the background isn't green too..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, I really miss their "metallic" pants. " I once had a car but I crashed it. I once had a guitar but I smashed it. I once, wait where am I going with this?

Maybe it's because everything in the background isn't green too..?I don't know, maybe it's just me but it seems the Eagles don't play a ton of 1:00 home games because they've been so good in the past decade, so maybe it's just not as noticeable? And haven't they worn white at home early on too recently?Also, while perhaps grasping at straws a bit here, isn't it that earlier in the season, the sun is higher in the sky while it's still summer. It makes it look "warmer" than it would in December? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sun is overhead, uniforms bask in it. I think that's a pretty good ananlysis of why the Egals looked so good, which they did. concepts: washington football (2017) ... nfl (2013) ... yikes potd 10/20/12 origin story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
