Re: Will we see the throwbacks again this year?

I really liked our 70th anniversary uniforms. I loved the spear and feather helmets. But, the 75th anniversary uniforms just suck. I'm sorry if I am in the minority on this. Now, if we were wearing the 70th anniversary helmets with the 75 anniversary uniforms, that might be pretty cool.

I was a big fan of the 70th anniversary uniforms too. Its just too bad we had to watch Shane Matthews play in them.

I do not understand why we didn't break out the 83, 87, or 91 uniforms honestly. The coach believes in superstition, karma, and all of that stuff. The 91 Uniform would have been the way to go. 14-2 regular season. 3-0 Playoffs with a SB win.

I found this statement amusing "The most underappreciated team of all time."

I wish the 70th anni uniforms were our regular uniforms to be honest. But Id really like to see the 75th anni's a few more times!

I liked this year's throwbacks alot... I wish we'd wear them again. Pittsburg wore theirs twice so far...

I prefer the helmets from 82' the ones they wore in XVII (around that time)

Pretty much the same as now but the feather is curled on the indian head.
Anyone else like those?

I hate the bright yellow helmet and pants. I much prefer the throwbacks from the 70th anniversary season with the spear on the helmet. Dark burgundy jerseys and true gold pants - now that's a classic look.

I do like the way they look but since I learned that they were designed by Lombardi to copy the packers... it kind of spoils it for me. Throw in a division loss while wearing them and I don't think I'll be buying one after all.

I agree, is there a good reason to see them again? If so, we wear burgundy, the white looked like GB.

I'm surprised that the PC police aren't trying to force the Skins to go with something like the 70th or the 75th uniform full time because of the way they feel about the Native American logo on the helmet.

I think their biggest thing against us is the name.

Re: Will we see the throwbacks again this year?

Well we're supposed to see them 3 times this year, and the first time we saw them was at the Giants home game, so I'm thinking we might see them at home against the Cowboys and Eagles this Sunday as well. They didn't look that bad to me, but for the 80th anniversery uni's I'd like to see more burgundy.
