Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

The NFL is looking to make alternate uniform restrictions even tighter. This is likely to try to prevent Nike from making the teams look like circus freaks, as they've done in college football. Can't say I oppose it. :D

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

I like the white on white look and also the old throw back uniform with the spear helmet. The uniform with the R on the helmet is nice to. Dont like the white on yellow pants. Yes its looks yellow to me. I'm Old School to I watched the George Allen teams but we need a change to to get the stink off of our team and uniforms are a start.

The NFL will not allow Nike to put their touch on the league like they did the NCAA. Thank God.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

I honestly like the new "updated" version whoever it was designed and posted On here

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

Summo's design? I also posted one designed by some kid that used the 50s-60s feather helmet with a modern color scheme...loved that one.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

Love our uniforms, but does any wish we would mix in a black color scheme? Like Black pants and Burgundy tops, or Black paints and Gold tops? Or vise versa with Burgundy or Gold on the bottom with a black jersey and burgundy or gold numbers? Thoughts?

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

No black EVER. It's not one of our colors. Black for black's sake is always a failure.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

I think we need an updated logo. The logo isnt that inticing. I like our color scheme a tone but the logo isnt anything special.

Have they actually announced new unis or is this speculation?

Sometimes I want them to break out the Lombardi era throwbacks. I like the gold helmets with the "R" logo.

[quote=mbedner3420;807321]Have they actually announced new unis or is this speculation?[/quote]

The Bills, yes.

The Skins, no. The only changes could come from Nike's designs/cut of the uniforms. Sp speculation for the Skins.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

LOL, I had to bump this back up.lol.

Why? because I have figured out how to solve our uniform issue's. I know some will say there is no issue but believe you me some like the older uni's and some like the current uni's and some want a whole new idea.

So .... there I was surfing the internet and low and behold I saw this.....

(EDIT: it didn't work)

I hope it worked. In any event it's Marylands two sided helmet.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

Maryland's new uniforms are ridiculously ugly. Who thought that look would be a good idea?

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

Sorry but those Bills Unis are UGLY

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

^ Really? They're near perfection in my opinion.

The helmet stripe is interesting how it gets wide at the back of the helmet, but they've gone from the ugliest team in the league to one of the better-looking teams in my opinion.

Blue pants to wear with the white jerseys would be the only change I make, the all-white is not one of my favorite looks. I disliked the Skins white-on-white too.

It's not often that a uniform leaves one speechless.

In awe of it's hideousness.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

Yeah, MD has the best state flag in the nation, but those uniforms were HIDEOUS.

I pray that Nike isn't allowed to stray too far from the team identities when they do the NFL's uniforms next season. I don't think they'll be given a long leash like the NCAA teams give them...NFL teams have team identities and branding to protect. Thankfully the NFL has a lot of uniform restrictions and rules...no alternate helmets other than throwbacks...a limit to the # of times an alternate/throwback can be worn, etc. I never thought I'd ever be praising the NFL's overbearing uniform code, but Nike scares me. They simply have no taste.

The Seahawks might become the Oregon of the pros if anyone does.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

Any word on the mustard pants this year? Personally, I could do without them. I like the way they've done things this preseason. Burgundy jerseys/white pants at home; the reverse for away games.

From 1981 - 2000 we NEVER saw the burgundy jerseys at home. And since most teams don't wear white at home we practically never saw the burgundy jerseys period. It's nice to see a change every now and then.

Yeah I think going back to the baby blue or powder blue color was a good idea, a long with changing the helmet to white.

Not to be a tard but you've confused me. I thought the sole reason you never saw the burgundy jersey at home was because "most" teams do wear their white uni's at home. The Skins did the same thing, they wore their white jersey's at home with the burgundy pants.

Personally I liked the "yellow" pants and wish they would use something more closer to the pewter color "gold" vs. the yellow or mustard gold. However I could be content with just about anything as long as they are winning. I would like to see a crayola "gold" used as the base for the helmet and burgundy and white stripes with either a burgundy arrow or the current logo used. I know the arrow design would look too much like Florida for some of you folks, but I'm not a college fan so I could care less. I also could substitute the white with black. Remember white was not in the original colors (burgundy and gold), Gibbs added and used the white jerseys which caught on because they were winning.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

I loved the burgundy and gold look we wore at home games last year, it was most excellent. I hope they keep up with that this year and in future years. Only time I see it being unacceptable is when it conflicts with the opposing teams' colors, i.e. in the Packers game last year.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

We're still wearing burgundy jerseys with GOLD (not mustard, not yellow, GOLD pants) pants. Bruce Allen confirmed it.

Interestingly enough, though, it's possible we could have a new jersey...

Good, that B&G set is one of the best-looking uniforms in the NFL and I'm not even saying that with bias...it looks amazing.

I still prefer the burgundy pants with the white jerseys.

About that "new jersey", I doubt it...teams have to notify the league about a year in advance of a uniform change and that would have been leaked on uniform blogs by now.

That's not a "new" jersey, that's what we wore with the yellow helmets in 2007.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

That is true too.

NFL Uniform rules would also not allow us to wear that throwback jersey more than four (I believe) times in a season either, so it couldn't be our "new" regular jersey without prior approval. I don't know how wearing just part of a throwback uniform with the regular helmet would be according to rules.

The gold pants were approved last year...Allen started working on that as soon as he took the job it seemed!

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

The Bears' Lance Briggs is saying he's going to wear some red/white/blue shoes and gloves that he got from Reebok on 09/11 and doesn't care if he's going to be fined...which he likely will.

[IMG]http://s1.proxy03.twitpic.com/photos/large/393074678.jpg[/IMG]

I hope there is a big backlash against the league if they try to fine him. Better yet, I hope as many players as possible get these shoes and gloves.

If the teams have to wear hot pink for a month EVERY season, but can't show some patriotism on a VERY IMPORTANT, SOLEMN date...ridiculous.

I support Briggs in this 100%. Now just stop whining about your contract again and stop asking for trades.

If the NFL is insistent on fining players for wearing this gear (which is completely stupid) then I would at least hope that any money collected goes to 9/11 related charities.

Re: 2011 NFL Uniform Thread
 

I'm about ready to buy and update my own jersey collection with a new one, but I may hold off this year because the whole league is going to Nike jerseys next year and I am anticipating a new Redskins look in the Fall of 2012.
