A Question for all diehard Redskin fans
 
For the home uniform, do you prefer the white or the burgundy jersey? Under Joe Gibbs 1 and 2, the team always played in the white jersey. Even during the entire Norv Turner era, the Redskins played at home in the white jersey. Not until Marty came did the Redskins begin to play in the burgundy jersey. Since 2001, the Redskins under coaches Schottenheimer, Spurrier, Zorn, and Shanahan have played in the burgundy jersey with Spurrier and Zorn going back and forth between both jerseys.

The only time Shanahan has used the white jersey at home was in 2010 and in 2012 but it was during the preseason.

Thoughts?

You go with the Gibbs color winning combo.

Agree totally... although, I like the white pants as well. But have to go with the burgundy jersey (and with gold stripes instead of yellow)

Burgundy jersey , gold pants. That's the way it should always be, it just seems natural.

All of the jerseys have a regular feel to them at home games. But the Redskins have been more successful wearing the white jerseys than wearing the burgundy ones at home.

Who cares about superstitious mumbo jumbo. The burgundy over gold is HOT. White jerseys are boring.

I'm no fan of the Redskins, but have always believed this uniform combo was the best looking in all of football.

the second one is my favorite too, i think that helmet with the R, is head and shoulders above the rest

Re: A Question for all diehard Redskin fans
 
The only reason why I don't like the yellow(gold) helmet with the 'R' is because I think it was Lombardi who made the switch and wanted to make the 'skins look like the Green Bay Packers. So for me, I prefer either our standard Indian Head burgundy helmets or the spear helmets. As for the uni, I've been won over by the gold pants, although I wouldn't mind the 'skins adopting the shade of gold pants that will be worn with our 80th anniversary unis and to mix that with our 70th anniversary jerseys. I think that shade of gold with the white jerseys would look pretty killer!

For home, I'd love to see us wearing burgundy over gold. We should show our team colors to the home fans.

On the road, I'd want white over the now-discontinued burgundy pants. I like that combo better than white over gold.

Not a huge issue obviously but I agree with...

Burgundy jersey/Gold Pants
White jersey/burgundy Pants

I don't think the White Jersey/Gold Pants look has enough Burgundy in it and they are the Redskins after all.

Re: A Question for all diehard Redskin fans
 
There was a throwback uniform they wore back in 94 that are my favs. The pants were a mustard color...hope they bring those back one day.

Mechanix544 08-28-2012 12:34 PM

Re: A Question for all diehard Redskin fans
 
The current gold pants are mustard enough. Either that or pee pee stained after not drinking enough water.

What is wrong with the classics?

Almost everybody agrees with the Gold pants with the burgundy jersey. So, who in the Skins organization is making this moronic decision to go with these ugly yellow/mustard pants instead of the classic gold???? Maybe it will just be for the preseason..

I'm no color expert like some of you, but isn't what they're wearing now pretty similar to back in the day?

The pants match the gold throughout the rest of the uniforms, which is the same "classic gold" we've been using since 1965. What's this obsession with mustard? Would you prefer we get your metallic 24K gold color pants that don't match anything else? That's what the Saints have do, mismatched golds.

If you mean that shade we wore for the 70th throwbacks in the Danny Wuerffel/Shame Matthews era, that wasn't an accurate throwback. We never wore that uniform historically. It was a "fauxback".

Re: A Question for all diehard Redskin fans
 
That throwback is how it looked back in the day, mismatched.

A lot of teams had mismatched colors.

I've heard that in the 1970-80s, there was only two colors of blue helmet shells available from the manufacturer. A dark navy blue and the bright blue the Broncos used. That's why the Giants had those dark blue helmets with royal blue jerseys...same with the Vikings' purples...they were restricted to what they could get made. The Saints had to get different shades of gold too.

I like that the teams do accurate throwbacks most of the time like the Saints and Vikings, but there's no excuse for mismatched colors for modern uniforms. I'm looking at you, Jerry Jones.
