Sure was a nice opening night uniform last year against the Rams.

silly question maybe, but who decides on the weekly uniform combos?

 

Is it Beane or McDermott? Pegula? Someone in PR/marketing? 

 

I like the combo, just curious.

NFL Operations gives the teams up until July 1st every year to decide if they will wear White, or their Team Colors for Home Games. The visitors must wear the opposite. In the case of my favorite team, The Miami Dolphins, they always pick White at home, as it is always hot, and humid when the season begins.


That is a quote from a Quora thread on the subject, but I’m not sure how hard and fast that rule is as the league gives the home team the choice of what uniform to wear, so the visiting team must then wear a contrasting color. I assume the Jets chose to wear their white uni on Monday and the Bills chose their blue in contrast.

Why oh why is this team so beholden to the blue/blue monochromes?  They were fun for a game or two but they've been way over used.  Blech, I'm sick of them.

 

The only solace I'll take from a Loss is that maybe the dumb superstition over the blue/blue uniform will be killed off.   

They were winning may games with the blue-on-blue combination last year.

Not a fan of the all blue, but I guess it's time to accept that it's the primary home combo these days.

This is by far the best combo. The white, blue, white, blue just looks so good to me, I love the contrast and how clean they look. The all blue is just too much. Thankfully not quite the eye sore the all red is, those are awful.

I think it's clear by now that the players really like the Smurf getups.  I'm guessing the players and/or captains have a big say, and obviously this means the Jests are wearing white.

 

 

Jets are wearing these.

They were.  Then they got boat raced in the biggest game of the season.   Personally i prefer the classic blue over white as the combo.

Can't be white on white. The Jets as the home team choose to wear white. I was hoping for blue over white. At the end of the night just win the game and go 1-0. I bet the Bills wear white on white for the home opener. It could still be hot out in Sept for 1:00 game in Buffalo. Make the Raiders wear their black over silver.

 

And if the Raiders request fans for their sidelines Bills accommodates the request as we can wear the Raiders out without the solar power.
