Again, the Eagles one, I won. Good deal.

Week 15 Round-Up

A little more uniform action in Week 15 than we've seen in a while. The Chargers wore their powder blue throwbacks, which are better than the normal Chargers uniforms, but like some of the other (loud) throwbacks (Bucs, I'm looking at you), they're best as a "two games per year" sort of combo.

The Cardinals wore solid red again (three weeks in a row). Repeating myself, these look awful, though the red pants mean that the rare, trivia-riffic white over red combo may yet make an appearance.

 

Finally, the Rams, the team with a bajillion uniform combos, brought out their throwbacks last week. They're nice, but loud enough that they're best as a (say it with me) "twice a year kind of alternate."

 

Week 16 UniDiction – Cowboys vs. Eagles

Of course, this game will be visual deja vu to week 8, as the Cowboys are a White at Home team. Of course, I hadn't unveiled my snazzy new UniDiction format back then, so I'll let the picture speak for itself. Even though I dislike (hate?) the Cowboys, I have to begrudgingly admit their uniforms are pretty nice.

Of course, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that the Cowboys blue uniform set is almost completely incongruous with their normal white uniform set, and I'll gladly point out the issues at great detail below.

The Eagles will be in their best combo, green over white, which is a 22 point sort of uniform.

I'll also point out that games like this are the reason it's stupid that the Eagles chose not to wear an alternate jersey this year (whether black or last year's throwback). It's like they're not interested in making money.

Predicted Score

Cowboys 18

Eagles 22

Merry Christmas! (for the record, I'm not above commentary on Santa Claus' uniform if there's a desire from the readership….which there probably isn't… but I do think the fat man can tone it town with that gold buckle)
