NFL Division with the best Uniforms

like everything else, it's the nfc east

Suggest Permalink

I like the NFC North imo.

nfc north is second place to me! the vikings really bring them down though with their new, terrible uniforms that look like an attempt to join the 1996 teams.

both of the south divisions are exercises in wtf

i think all the divisions end up being a draw because they all have at least one team that drags the rest of the good uniforms down.

but yeah, i think NFC North is the least of the evils. vikings > redskins

giants' road unis are awful

why are the giants road unis devoid of blue? it's so confusing.

NFC EAST
NY Giants 1
Washington 1
Dallas 2 (grudingly classic)
Philadelphia 2

NFC NORTH
Chicago 2
Green Bay 1
Minnesota 1
Detroit 2

NFC SOUTH
Carolina 1 (i can deal with an amount of teal)
Tampa Bay 0
Atlanta 2
New Orleans 1

NFC WEST
Arizona 1
San Francisco 2 (see Dallas)
Seattle 1
St. Louis 1

AFC EAST
Buffalo 1
New England 1
Miami 0 (just terrible0
NY Jets 1

AFC NORTH
Pittsburgh 2
Baltimore 1
Cleveland 1
Cincinnati 2 (they look like fucking tigers! brilliant!)

AFC SOUTH
Tennessee 1
Indianapolis 0 (most boring unis in the league)
Jacksonville 1
Houston 1

AFC WEST
Denver 1
San Diego 2 (fucking lightning bolts! yay!)
Oakland 2 (best)
Kansas City 1

oh hell why don't i just make one post about the subject:

afc east: the dolphins really bring everyone down. the bills new uniforms are so bad but when they wear the throwbacks, a++.
afc north: the bengals really, really hurt them badly. the steelers and the browns are great. the ravens are just "ok" but they are no bengals.
afc south: why is indianapolis in this division and baltimore is in the north? O_o also why is indy the only one of this division that doesn't dress like an arena football team?
afc west: the raiders really bring this up imo. the chiefs have nice costumes too. i will not dignify the chiefs by saying they wear uniforms, though.

nfc east: the best. the redskins have the most racist name of all the teams named after native americans, but the least racist logo by far out of that group. i will say, i do miss the old GIANTS helmets, and the cowboys could go back to their '90s unis and improve themselves.
nfc north: if the vikings hadn't redesigned, this would probably be the winning conference but their redesign is much worse than the cowboys.
nfc south: this entire division looks like epcot center's fire island exhibit. dnw. although i do admire how aggressively awful carolina's unis are.
nfc west: the cardinals really have the worst logo in sports imo, it is not even a very angry looking example of a bird! the seahawks wear the color of depression, fittingly but i think it contributes to a whole culture of fail. how do you not get depressed, putting that on every week?

i mean tbh i'm not sure if this is amazing or horrifying:

i guess AFC North. i'll give Browns an extra half point for helmets.

How can you rate Cle and Baltimore the same?!

Dolphins unis are nice!

Colts aren't boring! Good clean color combo!

Suggest you change your username to 1996!

xpost

that's more like it.

Is this going to be our "which mascot could eat the most other mascots?" thread of the week?

the dolphins unis are NOT nice, they are redonkulous. but the colts unis are great.

dolphins are totally what drags the afc east uniforms down. ugh.

i don't like the bills' XTREME unis :( :( :(

haha the cardinals' bird is totally doe-eyed and winsome. it's preposterous.

ok, so maybe their home strip is boring

http://i35.tinypic.com/25utiwz.jpg

but at least their...oh no, even more boring!

http://i34.tinypic.com/2cqd0zc.jpg

yeah the bills current uniforms suck. it is a tragedy, really.

i like the colts uniforms. the horseshoe is an elegant symbol.

ok i was just reminded that the lions used to have this logo:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/62/Lions-logo-61-69.gif

which they should still have imo so i think i need to reasses my worldview on whether or not nfc north is still #2 in my heart

xpost wtf is that "lounging peyton" picture

Dolphin unis remind me of sun-kissed south Florida. Where Dolphins jump through hoops of victory!

Cardinals logo is stern looking! Like, don't even try to go for it on 4th down mister.

xposts

the should have a raging, wild horse! and lightning bolts!

i guess it's a nice blue.

don't try my patience!

the dolphins uniform looks like an elderly new york jewish woman who has moved to florida to retire and now insists on painting her house garish colors "to look like cubans, isn't it hilarious!"

i'm guessing that the thought process with Miami was as follows:

1. what is the worst shade of green we can find?
2. what is the color that jars most alarmingly with that green?

presto uniform.

the dolphins uniform looks like an elderly new york jewish woman who has moved to florida to win every regular and post season game!

you know it is feeble, dude.

xpost

i saw that movie on Lifetime

not really making me hate the dolphins uniforms less, brownie

AFC East. it is entirely appropriate that Miami uniforms are garish. o/wise I like the Norths, with pretty much the same caveats as the schef.

chad pennington is not jewish

probably

gabbneb i am going to suggest ban you for the inherent racism in the statement that it is appropriate for things from miami to be garish

look at this old bears logo meanwhile:
http://www.logoserver.com/football/ChicagoBears51.GIF

omg guys wait
http://www.logoserver.com/football/LABuccaneers26c.GIF

that is actually an old gypsy woman in that logo

I love the Dolphins unis, if only because they've stubbornly stuck with a wacky color scheme and goofy mascot forever.

In general in the NFL, more color is better. This ain't baseball, you can look bright and garish in your skintight shiny football pants and big plastic helmets as long as all the design elements work. Unfortunately, for a lot of teams, they don't at all:

AFC East: Recent Bills and Pats uniforms bring down fine work from Jets and Fins.
AFC North: Ravens and Bengals bring down Browns and Steelers.
AFC South: Really no good unis; Indy is just OK.
AFC West: Nu-Broncos wreck whatever could have been good out here.

NFC East: Strong contender, not totally sure about recent Giants and Eagles but the foundation is there.
NFC North: Winner. Lions are average, everyone else in this group is top-notch.
NFC South: Whaaaaaat.
NFC West: Niners are classic but others are WTF.

omg wtf is this extreme cardinal

i don't know why i'm posting logos but i figure they are an integral part of the uniform

xposts - wait, is that just a really shitty pirate, or is it actually an old gypsy woman? either way...whaa?

not a good look

haha i know, powder blue!

they played on roller skates in the 1988-89 season

http://www.logoserver.com/football/BaltimoreColts48AAFC.GIF

why isn't the colts logo still this thing, of a horse playing football, wrongly?

The dolphin won't wear the Miami helmet and has come up with his own design which only reinforces my opinion that dolphins have no fashion sense.

http://z.about.com/d/football/1/0/1/O/DolphinsLogo.jpg

if the dolphin were wearing a dolphins helmet, it would be, like, meta

...disappearing into infinity. i like how they tried to make the dolphin look like a tough guy.

Serious hall of mirrors shit.

that cardinal is so MAD

he needs to take a XANAX or something

it's fitting that the state that gave us john mccain also gave us that.

ANGRY FUCKIN CARDINAL YEAAAH

he's mad, but the way he's expressing it with his squawky beak wide open just expresses how impotent the existence of an angry cardinal is. it's so hilar i am dyin imo

ps. http://i36.tinypic.com/qzhic0.png

it is hilarious, in a way that makes me very angry. kinda like sarah silverman.

ADE CANKLES GOES TO THE HOSPITAL

yeh but on the other hand that cardinal definitely hung out with bill ayers and shit

they were all MAD together and they went and BLEW SHIT UP

http://s.azcentral.com/home/File-/picture/43216/0/0/50/1024/

^^ weatherman ops & pissed-off cardinal blow up miami

the dude that keeps making those gifs each week is an american hero and should be president, instead of juan mccain

pretty sure bill ayers is actually making those gifs when hes not pulling the strings of his puppet-muslim barack hussein obama

the election won somehow by an angry bird

by that i mean sarah palin amibritish

i forgot to mention, but everyone who dissed the Bengals uniforms on this thread is dead to me.

xtreme cardinal looks like a rooster

XTREME ROOSTER COMIN TO FUCK U UP IN THE NFC WEST

now you just sound like tony kornheiser's never-ending stream of not-quite-appropriate ways to describe everything going on on the field (ex "he is coming in brees's face" to describe a sack or "EVERYONE IS GETTING OFF ON THE BALL" he actually said that??)

I don't have teevee at my house, I watch the monday night game on nfl.com with the little color-coded lines that stretch back and forth

which was really annoying for last night's game because they don't chart touchdown returns of punts or blocked fgs

why on earth did you put yourself through that for the vikings-saints for heaven's sake.

tom, boomer esiason + marv albert's radio coverage of monday night football is good. i don't have satellite radio, but i can usually find it online.

why the hell don't I have cable imo?

luv the steeler alternates even with the lame sticker logo:

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f1/Hines_Ward_throwback_2007.jpg/800px-Hines_Ward_throwback_2007.jpg

The problem with the radio is that it always seems to have a bit of a lag, but maybe I could find a way to sync it with my DVR.

Have the Skins worn their alternate unis this year yet? those are sharp. As are the Bills.

Was the Steelers' equipment manager drunk when he put the decal on Ward's helmet?

No Skins alternates yet, but soon I hope.

I really like the Jets old NY Titans unis. It's too bad Tennessee can't lay claim on that design.

I want to see the Titans come out wearing oil rigs on their helmets.

or derricks or whatever they're called.

and i, completely independently, just came to this thread to post this:

http://www.ssur.org/research/CK_NFLUniforms/images/houoilers.jpg

These were the great Oiler uniforms:

Look at that white sock. You won't see any other teams wearing a sock like that.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

I'm for the AFC West being the best division.

Raiders- Classic and very influential as the back in black look has been ripped off by tons of clubs. Their logo is badass.
Broncos- I like the newer blue uniforms and helmets. I think they may be the best look of the 90s updates. The old orange crush unis were unique and not too shabby either.
Chargers- The baby blue classic uniforms are freaking dope, almost too cool to waste as a regular uniform. I like the dark blue helmet with the bolts better than white helmet. The dark blue uniforms are really cool. The uniforms that were more white and gold with the lighting bolts on the arms that the Fouts 80s teams wore were nice too.
Chiefs- It is a classic style, kind of like the Colts except in red and white. The modern uniforms are not far removed from the old 60s ones from the AFL in the same way the Colts still have the same look (although the blue looks lighter in the current Colt unis). The arrowhead logo is also pretty good.

I wouldn't go on the Dolphins holding back the AFC East. Their color scheme wouldn't work anywhere else but in Miami and a team that started playing in the Orange Bowl, but it works for Florida. I like it better than those J-ville uniforms, which are garish like all of the colors in Florida. The Jets look pretty fuddy as green is just not the color for a team called the Jets. There is a reason the Irish of Notre Dame quit wearing green and why Oregon looks terrible in any sport. I think only the Packers can rock the green and make it work and that is the helmet and logo that makes it work. The Pats old helmet is classic in a way as the guy is actually hiking the ball, but their newer ones always looked kind of USFL to me. Buffalo has a cool logo and the uniforms are not bad.

Broncos unis are straight awful. ORANGE CRUSH OR NOTHING, DUDES

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

hotly contested

Oh man, I thought NFC East had this thing locked up. Third party voters throw poll into chaos.

it's a disgrace

no clear mandate

man, i really like those oilers unis. the old school unis are tight.

which skins alternates you talking about? the gold helmets w/ the servicemark-looking "r" or the ones w/ the spear helmet?

I like the "R" helmets.

Which fairy amongst you voted AFC north.

gold r helmets w/ the burgundy jerseys and gold pants w/ burgundy stripe are cool.

http://static.flickr.com/141/322484230_ad10095de4_o.jpg

but these ones are cool, too.

yay my vote mattered ^_^

Those Skins unis are fucking great.
