What he meant was more Chief-Like. :vomit:

No, you're not going crazy. Dallas did wear their white jerseys at Washington in the 2001 season, but it wasn't because they forgot to bring the correct uniforms. Marty made the call to wear burgundy jerseys for all of the Redskins home games that year.

Now, I did read that Denver "forgot" to bring their dark jerseys to San Diego for an away game early last season and were fined for it. The Chargers had to wear their dark blue jerseys at home in the sweltering southern California heat. I don't know who won that game though.

Beemseven is right. Marty chose to have the Redskins wear burgundy jerseys at home that year.
