I hate these and this idea. If it really is like the mockup in this thread - well, I won't be watching that game. I got to the same point with action green. Don't brand a team, get people onboard, and then tear down the brand.

Everything doesn' t have to be non-affiliated like fantasy football. The TEAM is why I signed on in the first place. I like their colours. I like the design. Don't **** with it.

Are they 'trying' to make decisions that make things unwatchable?

rant off.

Sorry, but if the concept is for each team to wear their opponents colors, not only will it be tremendously confusing to the viewer to adjust their eyes, it’s just plain dumb.

I wonder if the uniforms will include the Sasquatch from the hat pin they used for the draft hats this year?

Not that it means anything necessarily, but those mock ups look like they may have been commissioned by the NFL. In that regard, they do look legit…

…And disgusting.

It'd be cool to get some feathers going on somewhere but knowing Nike and their recent re-designs we'll get some generic slop with SEATTLE in bold, blocky font across the chest and a white helmet.

I was looking for this thread the other day. We should be seeing an announcement on what these look like any day now.

IMO the rivals uniforms is the NFL’s attempt to piss off the fans of every NFL team. There is no stronger emotion than anger. Once it happens all the sports talk will be about the NFL

Think about it, if it’s about rivalries, they may have images of big plays against their rivals screened on the jerseys. For instance, when they play the 49ers, it could be a screen print of “the tip“.

This sounds like garbage. Maybe I will be pleasantly surprised but this opens up all kinds of pandora boxes.

NOT a fan of messing with team's primary uniforms, brand and colors. It's like Cleats for a Cause extended into the uniforms.

Cleats for a cause has a great mission, and it reinforces that players be involved with a nonprofit cause. It also spotlights causes for fans.

This is about selling another jersey.

Agreed, I shouldn't have lumped a good cause into my argument.
