Dana87 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Talk about anticlimatic! I would have liked to have seen a fresher look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balonywolf Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 May still get something neat for alternates or throwbacks, especially since this year's an anniversary year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Hog Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Brian Orakpo just said there is a very different alternate uniform in store for the Redskins (per 980). Stay tuned... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drunken Master III Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Orakpo just said that we are one of the few teams that are taking our alternate uniforms to the next level this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moondog Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) Aside from just the uniform, Orakpo seems to have hit the gym pretty hard this offseason. Hopefully it translates to some improved functional strength on the field. I think this is going to be a big year for Orakpo (nothing to do with him looking bigger, he just really seemed to come on at the end of the year). http://media.oregonlive.com/playbooks-profits/photo/nfl-uniformsjpg-d1562cf4ee47cb63.jpg (picture in the link is a little more blown up) Edited April 3, 2012 by moondog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeDinNYC Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 love that they didn't change much... bring back the gold pants too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy Smith Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Thank goodness we didn't let Nike push us into getting new uniforms purely because Nike is a new NFL supplier. If we ever change the uniforms, it should be on our own terms, and on our own timing. Can't say I like the new Seahawks uniforms. The yellow-green color reminds me of Hi-C Ecto cooler... sort of a day-glo margarita mix tone, ick. And what's with the stripes on their pants? Looks like a roll of "take a number for service" stickers from a deli counter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dnpmakkah Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 The frustrated Skins fan in me wanted a fresh new start to this franchise with new uniforms ushering in the way. I can understand why some folks want things to stay the same due to tradition and all but part of me feels those same folks are also the ones who thought there wasn't a need to trade up to get RG3, because "traditionally" we've won our Superbowls with three different QB's. Our fanbase is sometimes too loyal to a fault. ---------- Post added April-3rd-2012 at 01:02 PM ---------- When I play Madden I usually do the combo below. 1. Yellow helmet with the arrow 2. White top 3. Yellow pants 4. White/Yellow shoes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bob Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) Depending on the angle/lighting, the helmet to jersey match looks better to me. Edited April 3, 2012 by Jim Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander PK Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 is it just me, or does Brian look bigger with that uni on? Or has he been hitting the weights harder. The dude looks jacked up....even more than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rebornempowered Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Woopity doo. They had a party to show off a Swoosh on the pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCchillin89 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Orakpo just said that we are one of the few teams that are taking our alternate uniforms to the next level this season.

Missouri_Skins_Fan Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) I'm not all that concerned, about no big changes on uni's. The shoes & gloves to me, are very cool. They already give the uni's some spunk as a whole. I like that. Then we will have RG3's left arm band, which will no doubt be funky. That to me, is plenty. I do hope they get a little funky with the alternates though. I would love to see a modernized 1970 Lombardi look. That would rock!

BeefJerky Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I'm glad there were no drastic changes. Interested to see what the alternative jersey's look like though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinz4Life12 Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 (edited) That's what they did with NCAA Basketball Uniforms too. That's good. I always thought the NFL jersey's were excessively big (for the fans). Understandable I suppose, but I like the way Soccer/Basketball jerseys fit better Edited April 3, 2012 by Skinz4Life12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy Smith Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Is the stripe down the side of the white pants the same as it used to be? I can't really tell from the picture - is there still yellow in the stripe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
