As I said before, I did not like the throwbacks. They are red & yellow instead of burgandy & gold. Last time I check the Skins wear burgandy & gold. Hopefully 75 years will pass before we have to see these again.

I like the helmets but I didn't really like the overall look. Maybe if he had rocked some old school burgundy jerseys I would have liked them more.
Plus, the loss totally taints them from here on out for me.

I was thinking that too. If we'd have chosen the burgundy jersey version of the throwbacks that might have been OK. But Joe Gibbs has some sort of pet peeve about wearing burgundy jerseys (current or throwback) at home.

Yeah, I know that it goes back to his days as an assistant in San Diego, but still. The uniforms were just way too bright, they lacked balance.
Man, I sound like a lady.

So, I went camping this weekend and drank 15 beers and then peed off the side of a huge cliff. So there's that...

It goes back to forcing the Cowboys to wear their dark jerseys when they're in town.

Re: Well we looked Marvelous in them Throwbacks!

The fact that I made a post up here in the Locker Room in itself is Rare.

The fact it had a Poll added to it is amazing [it's the mirrors] but the fact I made a post here that DIDN'T GET MOVED [yet] is Super Natural. ~falls off 1 leg stunned

I stand humbled and amazed gentlemen.
Thank you.
mike
peace

I didn't like them...gold pants and helmet way too bright for my taste. I would rather see darker colors used.

We should wear Throwbacks like these.

Torn Jersey with numbers 1/2 hanging off and Leather helmets!
Now, THAT is what a football player should be looking like.

I'll pass on the throw backs. Yellow is a aweful color, IMO I kinda link yellow to being cowardly.

If WE would have won it would have eased the pain of that ugly yellow.

Well, Blue is a color of depression, and we see that pretty much every team that's won the super bowl this decade had blue in the uniform.

While I usually share in your thought about yellow, I thought it was put together nicely...not like the 80's Tampa team.

I do think if something doesn't work, you change it. So next game I would go back to the uni's we used vs Phily. Those uni's should get a thorough wash and brought back later. But I am supersticious like that. I changed out jersey's and hats, and moved the other hats around and so on just to try to beat the Giants.

I love the 75th anni. unis. Not as nice as the 70th, but still awesome.
