TD_washingtonredskins Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Well, I think it looked sharp, but... 2008: Steelers 23 Redskins 6 2009: Cowboys 7 Redskins 6 2009: Giants 45 Redskins 12 2017: Cowboys 38 Redskins 14 That's 0-4 and outscored 113-38 (average loss of 28-10). I think we'll put this combo back on the shelf for a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. And also. The yellow pants are ugly as hell. Can we just go back to the white jersey/burgundy pants at home. It’s clearly the coolest look we have. ?

RWJ Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Personally, I like the old George Allen unis. I'd like for them to bring back the "R" helmet too. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where you come up with that math ? or is that the amount of games you watch until you get fed up with the teams **** ?? that would be more understandable actually 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we choose white on red at home, and then most of our opponents choose to wear their color jersey in their home game we'll almost never wear the burgundy jersey. In fact, during Gibbs 1 it got the the point we only saw it when we played the Cowboys in Texas Stadium 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluefood Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 The novelty of the mustard yellow pants with the dark jerseys has worn off for me, too. I was one of the biggest supporters of it at first but as with other recent attempts by management to win me other with nostalgia of the "glory years," all its done is remind me that I was born after they were over (which has deepened my resentment toward the organization and its leadership) I mean, hey, good on Bruce for paying tribute to his old man but if we keep with them, they ought to go with a darker/muted shade. You know - actual burgundy and gold. You can still cynically use fan nostalgia to squeeze more money out of them but at least the players will look better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Jedi Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Our uniforms need a complete overhaul. It's time to bring this team into the 2020's, not stuck in the 1970's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chasing design trends is seldom a good idea in the long run. I mean, how many cringy logos and uniforms have we seen from teams over the years? I'm still not convinced people actually came around on the Buccaneers Creamsicle unis. That's gotta be an example of the 40-year-rule. I don't think the uniforms or even the base color scheme is beyond repair. The numbers & names are easily readable and the colors burgundy & gold aren't a bad combination - as long as they're actually burgundy and gold, not "slightly darker red and bright yellow." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes, that's the only way that makes people actually work together and come up with their own solution. This thread does make me wonder what separates a classic, timeless design from the rest. Yankees have been rocking the pinstripes and the interlocked NY for nigh on a century. Despite moving across the country, the Dodgers have basically had the same uniforms since the Great Depression. Packers have had the green, yellow, and "G" on the helmet since the Lombardi years. Halas was still owner/coach when the Bears first broke out the blue and orange with the skinny, sans-serif numerals. Lakers uniforms have gone mostly unchanged since The Squire owned the team (I think the color change to the current gold, white, and purple was his idea). The "Original 6" in the NHL have basically had the same uniforms since it was just them playing for the Stanley Cup. Is it just association with winning teams? Is it simplicity? Is it something else? Is it a combination of it all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how the Jets and Giants did that back in the early-2000s and think it's the most classic NFL era. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I guess that burgundy is okay, but the gold? Ugly as hell. Of course to me, that's closer to mustard yellow, but I don't think of French's mustard as mustard yellow, I tend to think of Dijon mustards as closer to actual mustard color Edited March 28, 2018 by carex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
