Why are so many home teams wearing white this year?

 

I don't like this at all.

 

Bills always suck in this outfit. It's submissive.

 

It's the early season schtick where the home teams often wear white because the sunny, hot weather reflects off white uniforms,,,,as opposed to being absorbed by dark colors.  Of course it's been so rainy and cool in the east at the start of the season it hasn't mattered.

The road team and Dallas Cowboys always in white. 

 

Read a story some years back That the driving force behind the Cowboys "home whites" was that ownership felt that opposing teams in white always looked the same. By dressing his team in white the opponents wore their colored tops and gave the fans a different view.

Teams from hot climates typically wear white at home in the first few months of the season. Current prediction is it will be in the 80's on Sunday in buffalo.

 

  I recall Chuck Knox  having the Bills wearing white jerseys in the early home games too.  This has been going on for a long time.

I heard it was due to superstition since the Cowboys wore their blue uniforms the prior year in the Superbowl loss to the Colts (1970). Someone in the organization figured they were bad luck so they wore white as much as possible after that loss.

Clearly one of the best.

 

Jets looked great the other night as well.

I was going to say that the jets even I hate them. Their color scheme was on point this past Monday night. 

Wish they go with the red jerseys & white pants with the standing buffalo logo.

I said it last week and it turned out I was right. Is this a picture of what the Bills QB will look like after being ‘laid out’ on the field?

Remember in 'Peanuts' when Charlie Brown would get blasted by a batted ball on the pitcher's mound?  We may see a parallel development.

Always disliked the all white look, even when we were going to Superbowls wearing that stuff.

 

Having said that, I don't really care what uniforms they wear.  

We only lost one Super Bowl in white. Lost XXVI-XXVIII in blue

so if we ever saw Dallas in blue and silver, besides a Super Bowl, then other home teams chose white as well?

 

Browns and Jets often wore home white, it’s probably more common than first thought
