Best/Worst NFL Uniforms
Best - S.F. 49ers (Nice logo and beautiful color combinations)

Worst - Seattle Seahawks (They look like large size bottles of Palmolive dishwashing liquid running around)

1. The jerseys don't matter much to me.
It's the pants.

Personally, I'm a Dolphins fan since 1971.

4. Raiders and Bucs Are Up There
Denver's logo is really horrible. You cannot tell what it is.

5. I liked Denver's old ones
But the new ones stink big-time.

I like Seattle's road digs, the home ones are just okay.

6. The Old Orange Crush Uniforms Were Cool
Edited on Mon Sep-27-04 12:11 AM by Yavin4
Nice color combination. Nice logo. Seattle's green on green combination just doesn't work for me.

8. I'm not crazy about it either
Reminds me too much of the wretched Jags uniforms.

11. I'll second that
Denver used to have some great uniforms, now they stink. Now I think I'd go with the 49'ers on "Best Uniforms"

9. I watched a show on the NFL channel about the worst team ever
It was the '76 Tampa Bay Bucs. Those were the worst uniforms ever. That pirate logo looked so gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it's kind of funny when it comes to a football helmet.

10. That Pirate in the Logo Had a Name
It was named "Bruce". I kid you not.

12. I think they said something about that in the show I watched

Bruce was considered a "sissy name" until Springsteen got real big. I've never really understood why some names are sissy names, but there you go.

EDIT: "Blood Brothers" by Springsteen just came up on my mp3 player. It's weird the way that happens.

14. Best New York Giants...Worst Buffalo Bills
the Bills just have too much going on with their most recent uniforms. I never really liked the red helmets anyway. I always liked the white ones they used to wear back in the seventies and eighties.

15. I can't believe
...the Denver Broncos godawful "swoosh" unis didn't make anybody else's cut.

Best: Cleveland Browns...simplicity rules
Worst: Denver Broncos. Sad, because their old unis were great.

16. Best: almost anything old; Worst: almost anything new
These new uniforms and logos absolutely suck, no doubt designed by recent graphic arts graduates who seem to think uniforms should be like current action movies -- you need to have something exploding everywhere, all four quadrants of the screen and every stitch of the uniform. I have motion sickness and the uniforms alone are enough to ignite it.

A logo, in particular, should be something simple and memorable that can be sketched in 5 seconds or less. Now take a look at the recent expansion franchises or logo changes and try to find anything that fits that criteria.

I can't think of a single change for the better. It's especially sick they ruined the classic AFL logos and uniforms, not just the powder blue Chargers but also the simple Oiler derrick, plain buffalo for Buffalo, and even the huge hiking center for the Patriots.

It's ironic so many here have isolated San Francisco for best uniforms. Remember when they tried to change them about 10 years ago, with some futuristic logo? The fans revolted and the decision was changed almost immediately.

The worst uniforms I have ever seen are the new Oregon Duck football, seemingly louder and more hideous every season with a bizarre combo of dark green and yellow.

17. Minnesota Vikings...


... for the best uniforms, they haven't changed the logo or design since day one. You always know who it is on the field. I'll have to say the Seattle Seahawks uniforms are the most hideous. Didn't Holmgren change them? I thought he wanted more green to remind him of his old Wisconsin team. LOL

20. I've always hated the Bengals uniforms,
mostly the helmets.

In my opinion: best- Raiders, Kansas City, Steelers

I too rather see the old uniforms. Hate Denver's change.

19. best = raiders or chargers
worst = Broncos or Bills. I dislike all of those multi-paneled jerseys. Give me the basic, old skool unis any day.
