Jaguars almost had these:  Never understood why the NFL allowed the Jags and Panthers to enter the league with practically the same colors (the awful teal crazy of the mid-1990s). Both expansion teams from the south named after big cats - - and then you allow them to look the same too? There's no possible way these 2 guys good have been on each teams Defensive Lines could there?
It's 95 because 1995 was their inaugural season, but I've got to believe those two were not athletes (which begs the question, why not use actual players?).

I think I'm in the minority. Most people I know want the red helmets back. I fucking hated the red helmets.

How humiliated would you be if you had one man to beat and it was Dempsey who brought you down?

Do you think he had an advantage with the way his foot was shaped or no?

He did kick straight forward. Advantage? I'd have to look that up. |

He did kick straight forward. Advantage? I'd have to look that up. Maybe I'm wrong - what do I do know - but with the way the front of his shoe was shaped - I don't know - how do I put this
To me it looks like an advantage
Like this guy -

From the looks of it, "cheesy" is probably the proper word to use...... As in, man this lasagna is so cheesy, or can I get some extra cheese on that pizza? 😂 Hey, I'm not one to talk, believe me. We don't say no to anything with cheese here at the Millar70 home office. 🧀🍔🍕🥪🌮 |

He did kick straight forward. Advantage? I'd have to look that up. Dempsey did kick straight on. His career was at the beginning of the switch over to soccer style. And he couldn't kick sideways because of the sharp corner on his boot.
I read once that they did tests and Dempsey's boot was not an advantage. But the NFL passed a rule, making it illegal. And his kick was made a sea level in the humid air of New Orleans. Matt Prater and Jason Elam did their kicks in the thin air.

Dare I say the Ducks? Seriously go orange or go brown but don't utilize both very ugly.

Overnight cred upgrade??
New York Jets. Of course, it's very NY Jets of them to never figure this out.

Too iconic to mess with their color scheme
Just me.
Like I'd never touch the Cowboys, Steelers, Raiders.....

The Rams. The logo, the colors, the dirty PJ's they call uniforms. It all needs a change. I loved these (when Everett played there)
I liked the navy and gold ones too. Not sure why everyone seemed to hate those. |

I don’t know what color they should change to but the Titans have the worst unis in the league. And Seattle should get rid of that highlighter color - it’s hot garbage. I'm with you on Seattle, but the Jags have far and away the worst uniforms. They're a complete mess. Unlike Frogs I don't know that they need to change their colors altogether but they need a uniform redesign more than any team. |

Unlike Frogs I don't know that they need to change their colors altogether but they need a uniform redesign more than any team. The Jags’ helmet sucks, that 2 tone fade thing. The teal jersey isn’t bad - that color combo with Jaguars has a South American flavor to it. I don’t like Frogs’ alternative to it but they have enough to work with if they simplify. |

I also think the Saints need to ditch the all black thing. The black paints look bad. Black jersey, white jersey, gold pants. That's the way to go.
