Alright, I'm bored. AFC West Chiefs: I admire a team that hasn't changed its look in 60 years. Every combo of their unis except the all red they bust out once a year have a nice classic look. A- Raiders: Same deal as the Chiefs but with better colors. Old school logo that looks goofy on close inspection but has that classic charm. Black/Silver and White/Silver both look great. A+ Broncos: Fell into the navy trap of the late 90s and still haven't gotten out. They've tried to use orange jerseys more since the Manning days, but it's probably the worst shade of orange in pro sports. D Chargers: Their recent re-design was a big hit. The powder blue/yellow and white/yellow combos are both extremely sharp. A+ AFC North Steelers: A true classic. Black/yellow and white/yellow combos both look great. Only slight point against is the italic numbers. A Browns: I'm glad they've stuck with the ridiculous orange helmets for their tenure. Brown jerseys are kind of a necessity with the name, but the whites look way better. All white and white/orange are nice looks. The brown/orange combo they've been favoring at home is a bit of an eyesore. B Bengals: The helmet has always been a winner, the jerseys are alright. Can't really go wrong with black/orange. The snow tiger thing is kinda cool once a year, but the regular white jersey needs more orange accents. B+ Ravens: Black with purple and gold accents is hard to mess up, but they still have some meh combos. The purple jerseys should never be worn with the black pants, and black jerseys with white pants looks off with a black helmet. All black, all white, white/black, and purple/white all look good. B+ AFC South Texans: Born in the time of navy. The metallic red helmets are a good effort, but they've yet to find something with the current color scheme. C- Colts: Simple, classic. Those black alts are an abomination, but their regular unis are solid, if uninspiring. B Titans: Voluntarily went to more navy in the 2020s. Too much going on with the jerseys, even the powder blue can't bring much life to them. D Jaguars: They had the right idea to go back to teal and black, even if it's the lame early 2010s shade of teal instead of the awesome 90s one. Their logo is derpy and the color combos aren't quite right. C+ AFC East Bills: White helmet is nice and the blue and white unis are fine. The all red is trying too hard. B- Dolphins: Unis have steadily gotten worse since the 70s, but the color scheme is still unique. I dislike that they lean into the all white unis more, which is their worst combo. B- Jets: Like the metallic green helmets, but it doesn't really work with their regular jerseys, especially the hideous black alts. The all white throwbacks are sharp. C+ Patriots: These have to be the worst unis in the NFL. Extremely lazy re-design that doesn't match anything. How do you keep those Bledsoe/Brady era silver helmets but have no silver accents on any uniform? Those whites are exceptionally heinous. F NFC West 49ers: They did the right thing going back to the 80s look, with some occasional 90s drop shadow sprinkled in. A Rams: Trying to go more classic, but also trying to be too fancy and "forward looking." The font is stupid and the off-white is drab. That said the blue/yellow and white/yellow combos carry the day. B Cardinals: New all whites are surprisingly good. The more red that's added, the worse they get. B- Seahawks: The only good original Nike idea. The unis are busy, but the neon green actually makes the navy work. The all neons are so audacious, they're beautiful. Extra credit for the beautiful 90s throwbacks A+ NFC North Packers: They haven't changed much since before the first SB, and for good reason. Unique color combo and the yellow pants work with the green or white jerseys. A- Bears: Another real classic. A rare navy that doesn't suck. The orange is the perfect accent color and the white/navy combo is excellent. They lose points for trying to make the all orange a thing, though. A- Lions: In the process of getting back to their roots. The font still drags down an otherwise fine color scheme. B Vikings: The matte purple helmet is pretty good. White/purple combo looks good, others so so. B NFC South Bucs: At least they got rid of the alarm clock font. No idea what they're doing with the comically large version of the flag logo, though. Colors are fine, but they should always wear pewter pants. C+ Falcons: They had perfect unis in the 90s and remind us of that once a season. The 2000s helmet tries way too hard as do the current unis. C Panthers: Great color palate, but why are they wearing white/black at every opportunity? Their unis are so easy. Silver pants, with black, white, or blue jerseys, yet they screw it up. Plus, someone once pointed out their current logo looks like their last one got stung by a bunch of bees and I can't unsee it. D+ Saints: Black/Metallic gold is easy mode, but at least the Saints generally stick with it. All black and all white are no goes, but either with metallic gold pants are a winner. B+ NFC East Cowboys: They do stick to the classics, but it's one of the blander classics. The white star helmets they bust out on Thanksgiving rule, though. B- Giants: Not sure why they made unis with less blue in the 2000s. "GIANTS" is superior to "NY" too, as evidenced by their handful of throwback games every year. C Commanders: Talk about a team searching for an identity. Desperately trying to keep the burgundy/yellow thing going, but still throwing poo poo at the wall with jersey ideas and can't find a good logo. D- Eagles: Midnight green is unique, but still a downgrade from the kelly green. The more black that's added, the worse it gets. B-
