We have similar taste here. All of those, minus Philly, have remained mostly unchanged for decades. Even little changes like the Colts' and 49ers' facemasks look good to me. Not as big on the Steelers/Raiders, but I appreciate them.

Nope.

That ain’t it.

They are routinely rated near the bottom of all the teams because there is nothing to them. They’re white toast. When you debate the thickness of a stripe change, your uniform is boring. If they were minimalist, at least they would be a style. Yeah some of those teams are iconic, interesting color combinations, the packers is ugly but iconic, but the Colts are never grouped in with them because it’s too simple to be iconic.

I would include the Vikings over Philly. I absolutely love that matte purple finish of the Vikes helmets.

I agree 100%. Didn't even think about the Vikings. Philly is out, and Minnesota takes their place.

The Denver Broncos' uniforms from the late 1960's through the mid-1990's were outstanding ...... it's criminal that they fucked with such greatness as they did.


I would also like to see the Miami Dolphins, the New England Patriots, and the New York Jets permanently go back to their classic uniforms from the late 1960's and early 1970's.

I will apologize ahead of time, but I really liked the old Baltimore unis with the double horse shoe on the back of the helmets. I believe they wore the on a Thanksgiving game in detroit. I will accept any correction, but it was a good looking uni

I hate the black helmet and trim. Hated the double horseshoe in the back, too. Keep the classic Blue and white. The best uniform in the league. The New York Yankees of football as far as uniforms go.

I've liked the throwback sets with the blue helmets and the ones with the shoes on the back of the helmets. I still like the design even with the stripes being horizontal on the shoulders because it still fits the theme.

I think "Atrocious" is a perfect description of the black helmet. I just don't think the brand needs black, at all.

I am a fan. But I really do not think I'm looking at that illogically.

There should be an emotional positive response when you see your team logo and colors. This is just another way to generate income.

Baseball has gone overboard with the city connect jerseys.
