Disrespecting the best uniform ever

To be fair, I disagree with half of his opinions on that list. 

I would love for us to ditch the silver. I've always hated that silver. Especially with the sparkles on the helmet. 

I've always hated our fuging helmets from day one.

The problem is that ours are both, among the best in the league, but also need to be updated.

I love them, but we basically have had the same uniforms for the entire 25+ year existence of our franchise.  If we had won a bunch of SB's, then sure, keep them and we can have a longstanding iconic look that never changes.  But we haven't, nothing wrong with a shakeup, just don't do anything stupid and too far out there like some of these teams do and then end up looking like an Arena or XFL team.

Can you imagine what Rhule would come up with? I shudder to think about it.

Combine that with the Nike's desire to make uniforms look like something from a bad high school movie.  Their best work comes when the team tells them to make them look like their classic uniforms before the last redesign (or seven). 

"Update them but don't turn them into cartoon characters" seems to be beyond their comprehension. 

When they release their masterpiece and the team's fans immediately start watching the countdown of the five-year clock before the next major change, and five years later they are still watching the days, minutes, and seconds count down, you kinda get the idea that maybe you missed.  But, I'm sure the designers convince themselves that they are just too advanced for the team's fans.

Moral of the story: be careful what you wish for.  Case and point: the Atlanta Falcons, who went from dated to awful.

Now add Rhule and company, who are 0 for 1 in rebranding efforts and the 1 was a rout.

Is this the annual, "we need to dictate how others should dress" debate?

 

Winning is the only change that's going to make our already good jerseys,  great again.

I’d like to see us actually have silver pants again instead of those grey ones we have been wearing.

That guy kept reporting my "Dave Dameshek getting blown by Alice" gif.  Had to keep uploading it to new hosting sites.

Related: the author of this, Broncos website writer Andrew Mason, was (briefly) employed as the lead writer for Panthers.com before getting his dream job working for his favorite team.

Still one of my all-time favorite endeavors, my laptop at the time ran at 100% for hours at a time

Ive always been a bigger fan of the logo than the uniforms, honestly.

When it first appeared, I thought the logo looked cool. Thought the redesign made it look even better.

Uniform wise? Outside of the helmets and fonts, most pro football uniforms follow a fairly standard formula.

Posted these that I found on Google images on Twitter yesterday. I like elements of each one, but I'm not sold on any of them overall.

I would like to see a re-design, but I do worry we'd get something like what the Falcons have now.
