There are so many uniforms that were changed for no reason other than a "modern update". When the Bucs dropped the creamsicle it was understandable. New ownership, new stadium, full rebranding etc. It also helped that the new unis were a great design and looked great. The newest ones were just a change for sake of change and they look loving awful. Go back to the creamsicles or the previous unis IMO

Chilichimp posted:These really were some of the uniforms in the league. This is another thing Shiano did, isn't it? The change was done between the 2013-2014 year, so when Schiano left and Lovie came in. Even then I don't think a head coach has that much say so to completely change the look of the unis. I just looked and Schiano was there the same amount of time that Lovie was. Why does it feel like Schiano was there so much longer?

I want to believe everything bad that's happened to the Bucs is on Schiano but you do know Raheem Morris, whose idea of practice was playing Madden in the locker room, was there before him right? He was 17-31. Bucs haven't had a solid football team since Gruden was there and even at the end of his tenure it was in decline.

Whatever, it's been a long and shite road, but if nothing else, it's brought the Koetter/Smith experience to Tampa, and those guys are actually good coaches despite the lovely clock management troubles.

By the end of Raheem Morris' coaching era, all they did at practice was play COD, and the reason he wasn't fired was because there weren't enough people on staff to keep the lights on.

Also wouldn't that mean that helmets at the beginning of the season are significantly less safe than they are at the end? Also not to beat a dead horse but this article low-key confirms that Jerry Richardson doesn't let his players protest: http://amp.charlotteobserver.com/sports/nfl/carolina-panthers/article175417071.html

It may have been utter bullshit trotted out by the NFL. quote:UW: I was talking to an NFL spokesman, and he didn't say anything about that. He said that when you switch out a helmet, it takes time to break in the new one, and that can cause safety issues if it isn't broken in well enough. Is that true?

Red Helmet, Black Jersey, White Pants is the original Falcons uniform from 1966... which is why that is our throwback uniform. Also, that dawgs jersey look like poo poo, hth. Stupid-rear end red collar has ruined an otherwise good look.

Their schtick is red and has been for a long-rear end time. They still do black alternates like once/year, and every few years have the black-out game or w/e, but I don't fuckin' care. Red Helmet, Black Jersey, White pants is bangin' and the dawgs do not rock that look currently.
