Bruce Allen on McNabb extension, Haynesworth and uniforms

Great uni Buster. Two thumbs up.

I love those lol and the all Burgundy.. Idk about those pants they look mustard yellow.. I think we would kinda look like SF

No, SF would look like us. :) Although not really.

With all respect (it's just opinion), I detest the all whites. White is not an intimidating color. The all whites say, "Please smack us around."

And in the all burgundy, we just look like a bunch of burgundy turds.

Our colors are burgundy and gold. We should highlight both of those colors IMO.

I was trying to think of the teams that have kept their current uniforms the longest without changing, but not counting occasional retro looks. We've had our design since 1979 I believe. But the teams I can think of are:

Colts
Bears
Raiders
Packers
Steelers

I'm not sure how long the Cowboys have had their current design. Sometime around the 70s they changed to the aqua-colored pants when they wear white jerseys. When they're in the blue jerseys, the pants are silver. I'm not sure of any other team that does that, btw.

Every other team has had either minor tweaks or complete changes sometime in the 1990s.

Did the Colts change theirs this year? I watched parts of their first preseason game, and their helmet was completely different, horseshoe in the back not on the side. Couldn't tell if the uniforms were different as well.

Those are just throwback alternates the Colts are wearing, not a permanent change

^^Thanks

I think each of those teams have tweeked their uni's slightly over the yrs. The Colts probably least of all though.

Watching the film today the Bills have a nice uni. I could see us using the burgundy where their blue is and using gold where they put red. Then use white as they did; stripes on the pant leg and numbers.

Then we could so something similar with the whites... all white with burgundy where the Bills used red and highlight every thing with gold striping and numbers.

Just to make colors pop I'd use metal flake paint on the helmet. Metal flake burgundy and metal flake gold. It's still the orginial colors but it would make the colors really stand out nice.

Edit:
Here is the Bills Blue uni:

I would use burgundy where their blue is and gold where they have red and use white to highlight.

Here is the Bills white uni:

I'd replace the red stripe with burgundy and the blue with gold.

1955 to be exact.

1st uni: I could see burgundy where blue is and white where they have red and use gold for the numbers.

2nd uni: I could see (again) burgundy where the blue is and gold where they have red.

3rd uni: I could see gold where they have blue and burgundy where they have white. I would use white as highlights.

No way, that Broncos set was unique when it came out but now it's a standard with college and high school teams.


I'd love to see the current design and helmet in this color scheme, gold pants included:
