Will we see the throwbacks again this year?

EternalEnigma21 · 11-09-2007, 02:39 AM

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

Just be glad we don't have the eagle's throwbacks.... they're fugly!

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 was thinking about this the other day. If I had to guess what games we would wear them it would be Bears and Cowboys at Fedex. The Bears game is on NFL network( I have tix, yay me) and the Cowboys game is sure to be the featured game of that week. They may even move that one to SNF.

just say yes to the throwbacks. they are the best alternate uniform i have seen so far

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.

It's very unlikely the Cowboys will move to Sunday night game actually. They're kind of maxed out

all burgandy would be money! i used to think it wouldnt be allowed, but then the ravens and the seahawks have both worn their pants the same color as the jerseys so maybe we could see it in the future.

redsk1 · 11-09-2007, 10:24 AM

Hope to see them again. Maybe the C-boys game???

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.

The Saints have worn all Black some this year as well.

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.

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 think their biggest thing against us is the name.

They have only worn Burgundy shirts on Monday night in Philly, it worked then, how about this weekend?

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