2013 NFL uniform/logo changes

Recommended Posts

Don't have any issue differentiating teams today as the variation in uniform styles is fine, it's just that some color combos get repeated a little too often for my liking. I will say though that our of the 4 major sports, the NFL probably has the most uniform variation currently. If I had to rank the leagues I'd say in terms of overall uni variation:

1. NFL - 32 distinct looking teams, although some repetitive color schemes/styles nothing too egregious except maybe Falcons/Cardinals

2. NBA - most teams with unique look with a few exceptions (Nets/Spurs, Sixers/Clippers)

3. NHL - prob would've been #1 in 1991, now way too much red/black and Original 6 dress-up.

4. MLB - too many derivative navy blue looks and BFBS

Very true, but at least we've had teams like the Astros, Blue Jays, Reds, Orioles, etc. de-emphasizing (or eliminating) black and returning to brighter colors. I know everyone loves the A's, as do I, but I'd love to see them return to the kelly green they had in the 60s and 70s. (I can't believe I just posted that in the 2013 NFL uniform/log changes" thread, but oh, well... :P )

I always thought that the rams' horns (both on the helmet and jersey) of the current Rams throwbacks look pretty anemic compared to the "classic" look. Of course, everyone wore sleeves back then:

Those sleeves are one of my favorite uni features of all time. An exception to my usual distaste for redundant helmet/sleeve logos.

I am right there with you. I hate, hate, hate when teams put the helmet logo on the sleeve, but loved the Rams sleeves.

Must be a generational thing I guess, but to me they're just too darn narrow.

I'd consider those sleeves to be more of a design element of the uniform as opposed to a sleeve logo. But you're right, they did look good.

I like them as well but think they missed would look better blue with yellow horn like the home & helmet.

Way to be stupid, Rams. Ruins the whole damn thing.

Actually, I'd saw Dallas is ruining the whole thing, being the only team not wearing their colored jersey. The blue jersey is not your curse, Dallas, it's your owner.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

(Looking at pic of Bradford) "Needs a gray maaaaaaaaaaask."

Yeah so it can destroy the whole look.

It was meant only as a joke playing on how a goat sounds, not an actual desire for a gray mask.

Just clicked on the NFL section of SI.com and saw this beauty. Has it been announced when these will be worn? Should be their primary home uniform.

It was also worn last year against the Saints

My absolute dream game uni-wise would be the Falcons in those vs. the Saints in throwbacks of their '67-'68 roads:
