ConcreteCharlie Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 A lot of these NFL pics are getting major bonus points for having actual AstroTurf in them too. That brings back memories, when was the last official NFL game played on it?I'm almost positive it was Colts Broncos in 2004 at RCARight - almost. The last NFL game played on the old-style Astroturf was Colts-Broncos in RCA, but on January 9, 2005.The picture above is from the 2004 playoffs, notice the colts blue face mask. Last Regular season game it was played on was Jets vs Rams January 5th, 2005...... Who was the last team with in an outdoor stadium to use it?Ralph Wilson Stadium used it through the 2002 season. Did any outdoor stadium use it later than that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OffCenteredScoreboard Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 even tho these teams play 4 times a year and these hurricanes unis are entering their second season, this is the only matchup of these two uniforms. hurricanes always wear black against the isles for whatever reason (same thing for the isles old black jersey vs canes) in fact the canes will wear black the other islander game they will play in carolina.

Dynasty Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Not sure if this was mentioned...The Pelicans (previously the Hornets) and the Bobcats (now the Hornets) only went against each other in just one year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unocal Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 The only such matchup of these unis. 2011-12 was the first year of those Tampa uniforms- didn't meet in the 2013 lockout-shortened year, and when they next played each other, Dallas had overhauled their unis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnysama Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Another gem from 1998; second year of the Nikefied Broncos set, and the penultimate year of the Phil Simms/LT-era Giants togs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djam2410 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 I love so many of these . Another "rare" matchup, the first time the dolphins have played the bears in their new set, i really liked the look of this gameThe previous matchup before this oneand a marino bonus as a gem, i love the way these colors look against each other (shared use of orange as a secondary color until the most recent matchup) 1 Quote Cal Bears | Miami Dolphins | Cleveland Cavaliers |@dcjames5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's right, I'm saying the Nikefied Broncos are better than the classic orange uniforms. Come at me, haters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxmc89 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 The Jacksonville Jaguars wore three different uniforms the last three times they played the Arizona CardinalsMan, that Jaguars uniform looks pretty nice when you can only see the front of the helmet. But as soon as he turns around, blecch!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGortonFisherman Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 The Jacksonville Jaguars wore three different uniforms the last three times they played the Arizona CardinalsMan, that Jaguars uniform looks pretty nice when you can only see the front of the helmet. But as soon as he turns around, blecch!!!I really agree. If the Jags just made that helmet normal, and maybe wore white pants a bit more, they'd have a solid look. Nike-fied? Yes. But solid. The look is very color balanced and just for some reason has real appeal to the eyes. Anyways, here's my contribution:Next time they play, this matchup will look very different.

Berlin Wall Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Here's an NBA one-season only matchup:First year for those Heat unis, last year for those Suns unisIt's interesting how the Heat's side panels were cut off before the jersey ends. But the small golden stripes went straight through. Quote I'm a simple person, I have a pixelated David Beckham as profile photo since 2010.
