wonderbread Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Man, I'm sick of the NFL. You can't look good in your burgundy pants, but any player can wear 4 pair of socks to create a striped effect, or long single color socks, etc. SMH. Because of the helmet rule, let the teams jazz it up a little. Maybe they are giving the skins a hard time because of the nickname??Off the top of my head teams with 3 pant options are...Titans, Chargers, Panthers, Seahawks, Texans, Broncos3 Pant options because of throwbacks...(although some not worn in '13)Bucs, Jets, Redskins, Falcons and I'm sure I'm leaving some out...Pats cowboys Pats throwbacks are gone. Casualty of the one-helmet rule.I thought it was saying 3 pants including throwbacks if it wasn't for that 1 helmet rule Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HailGoldPants Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 Why is this news?It's news because Bruce Allen is saying the NFL restricted the Skins from wearing a third set of pants. This is contradictory to what most of thought was the rule of being allowed to wear 3 sets. Check out my site at stevebcreations.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the pants issue, if the Redskins are going to keep their throwbacks again next season then I wish they'd break them out more than once a year. Seems a shame to have those pants as one of your 'required sets' and be in limited use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tohasbo Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 The throwbacks are nice but wearing the current helmet with it kills the look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dennisbergan Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 It's news because Bruce Allen is saying the NFL restricted the Skins from wearing a third set of pants.That would be news to all of us, since its not true.Or maybe I just imagined Seattle, Tennessee and Carolina all wearing 3 different pairs of trousers in the 2013 season.The Redskins aren't wearing the old burgundy pants because they chose not to. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple as that.That is correct that other teams wore 3 sets of pants, but the crux of this topic is that Bruce Allen was quoted as saying that the NFL did not allow this for the Redskins.

DeFrank Posted March 12, 2014 Author Share Posted March 12, 2014 @DeFrank....I was reading an account of the Chalk Talk on a Redskins message board and the guy reporting said he thought Bruce Allen mentioned something about asking the NFL permission to wear solid red pants. Do you recall this or did this guy just misunderstand Bruce Allen? Thanks.Yeah I don't think there was anything about solid red pants. I was listening intently, considering I asked him the question and was sitting in the front row. Only reason I went was to ask. Perhaps the guy heard "solid red" instead of "solid tan." concepts: washington football (2017) ... nfl (2013) ... yikes potd 10/20/12 origin story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 It's nice. The white and gold combo isn't as nice. That's the issue here.

4_tattoos Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 Nothing wrong with that as the home look. However white over burgundy would be a superior road uniform to the white over gold they've worn the last 2 seasons.

daveindc Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I get what you're saying about the white/gold, but to me they are refreshing. I got tired of looking at that white/burgandy after 20 years of losing. I get a headache just thinking about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get a headache just thinking about them.I agree that the white/gold is a nice change up, but for me I'd like the team to use them just as a time to time change up. Like maybe white/red for 6 away games and white/gold for the other 2. Check out my site at stevebcreations.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
