2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over

Bottom line for me, it's my team, they are "just" uniforms, and they aren't maroon and black equivalents of the bumblebees up north. I'm good with them.

They're still the 'skins. I mean, until the Redskins match their glory years in modern times, I'll always identify the white jerseys with burgundy pants as the main Redskins uniform, but I'd be all for incorporating the throwback colors (the true gold color) with something new.

liked the arrow helmets better than these helmets

FYI -

You'll notice the old NFL Equipment shield on practice and sideline/fashion merchandise. Nike is using only the NFL shield alone on the actual uniforms, but everything else wlll still have the same Equipment shield Reebok used. I thought it was going away but that only applies to the gameday uniforms.

The collars are definitely odd

Perhaps they are trying to reinforce the fact that the NFL is a business first.
