The SOW mock up of the all-white jersey collar looks a little too plain. I wonder if they will opt to move the stripes from the sleeves to the shoulders now. It'll make the stripes visible since Kirk Cousins is the only guy who wears the Darrell Green sleeves nowadays.

Ugly ass helmets. Should pick one color and go with it.

Why? We have all those throwback helmets and uniforms already. What is the purpose anyway? Is the NFL product becoming so sterile that they need to have like 5-6 new uniforms to create excitement? Oregon is way over the top with their uniforms. Why does everyone else have to follow suit. Waste of money. If they have that type of money to burn on half a dozen different uniforms, then maybe they could keep ticket prices down. Or better yet keep ticket prices down and cut the ridiculous uniforms. Like a cool new uniform is going to make a difference in how well the team does. Same goes for logos. The Cardinal for AZ has a meaner look, but they still are going to suck, but it cost a bundle to make the new logo change for all the apparel, etc.

All NFL 32 teams need to upgrade on their jerseys as that could be a thing in the not too distant future to come!

Dude, you can't stop progress. Everything changes, including NFL jerseys. I'm not suggesting we change the whole uniform, I'm simply suggesting that an alternate might be cool from time to time. Hell, I've even seen tweets from RG3 expressing interest in potentially having an alternate uniform.

I kinda liked the two tone collar, added a sharp edge to the jersey I thought. I wonder if all the other teams that have them as well are changing too?

Most, if not all will be ditching the toilet seat collars. The majority of fans of all teams were outraged when they saw them.

I would like to see a collar with a slight burgundy(or gold) trim. I mean like small strip, kind of like you see at the bottom of their sleeves. I like the all white though, but it would be interesting to see how it would look like how I described.

Outraged is the right word; I myself picketed the Nike offices for three straight weeks once it was determined those collars would be used in the new jerseys...

the Vikings got away from too funky, the Jaguars became too funky and the Dolphins went somewhat minimalist.
