Uniforms aren't going to help or hurt us.. they're not going to make us think more or less about valid concerns in the FO, etc

Funny how a little uniform talk gets twisted so easily.

Thats crazy! Thats the best part of the jersey! Thats what we represent!I could see wearing the Arrowhead 75th anniversary helmets for a few games but we cant get rid of the NATIVE AMERICAN head. Not a fan of the yellow helmets. And media really need to stop tearing Bruce Allen a new asshole for addressing the uniform issue. Shows he has a touch with the fanbase. And also, i have a full time job and STILL have time to be on this forum everyday and watch tape and get opinions of alot of players. But THAT is his full time job so im sure as much analyzing we're doing, they've done more. They can take a few minutes to discuss uniforms lol.

Well if we do get new uniforms, we'll be making the most profit in the league. Probably surpass Dallas again, since everyone will want the authentic gear.

Just disappointed that my suspicion was right. Zorn was pretty much a fill-in coach while Snyder waited for a big name to become available.

It really was a waste of two years and with our current line instability and lack of depth it will be another 2-3 years before we'll see if we're even going to be competitive under Shanahan.


Too much wasted time with no real direction in place. You can say that we have it now but then you're still talking 2+ years before we see it come to fruition...it's disappointing.

If Zorn was 20-12 instead of 12-20 he might still be around.

He was a rookie coach though so what was the expectation. If he was hired in the first place it was because management believed in his system and his implementation of it.

I'm sure after their hours of interaction during the interview process that management was able to come away with an informed enough decision to entitle him to that. Zorn wasn't even given time to see his rookie draft class in their 3rd NFL year.


That's one of the ways one can tell that informed decisions are not being made because they are not being stuck to. The person behind the decision knows they don't have the aptitude necessary to stick behind the choices being made...thus the constant turnover in personnel and coaches.

Well when you decide to blow things up from the top (Vinny out, Allen in) there are bound to be significant changes that come along with the change of direction. This is the kind of change I can live with, and the kind of change that was desperately needed.

Didn't realize it was the media that was ripping Bruce Allen for addressing the uniform issue. Didn't realize anyone outside of a couple of people here were even remotely concerned about it.

A member named Moseph on CCSLC did this masterpiece: (giving full credit)

He also did this, which is good but not AS good as the feather on the pants version:

There is a ton of Redskins concepts being done on that site, but Moseph's work is my favorite so far. With all of the attention and work being done by people, I bet there's a chance something will be seen by Bruce Allen that he likes and we could get some tweaks soon. Not an overhaul, but updates. I still think we have one of the best uniforms in the NFL currently, it's classic and the colors work so well, so I don't want anything to stray too far from the look.

Those look like AFL uniforms, way too busy

I'm also not into the ones that look like they came out of Ronald McDonald's closet.

The mustard yellow (I know our colors are burgundy & gold) needs to be an accent color not apart of the main palette. Some of these uni's are making me want to order an Extra Value Meal.

I kinda like the white on burgandy and burgandy on burgandy ones with the spear on the pants.

Way too much yellow in those. The Yellow is an accent color not a primary color in our uni's and should stay that way.

Re: New Uniforms? Summo on Redskins.com!
 
We don't use yellow, I thought Zorn reminded us all of that!

Re: New Uniforms? Summo on Redskins.com!
 
This works very well...without too much GOLD. :D

Agreed

burgundy AND gold, not the other way around!

The huge feathers running down the side of the pants is pretty bad

Yeah, I don't mind some of the more subtle ones but that's WWF (or WWE, whatever it is now) type material there.

He downsized it, as I noted in the post. Look at the gold pants.

I like it actually.
