At least we're not the Falcons

That's not the point, and so what if they did or didnt?

 

You guys can hate them all you want and be in your feelings about some other team's fashion. So far, from the response on local sports radio this morning, they are well received by the home town because people here identify with them.

I live in Atlanta... 93.7 or 92.9? Idk which sports talk you listen to, but the reception has been awful on 93.7

Throwbacks are pretty good.

 

Rest are awful. They look like what an 8-year-old would make in Madden. 

 

Seriously though.  It's hard to imagine that someone actually got paid for designing them.

Yeah, but it isnt part of the identity like it is to a lot of folks in Atlanta.

 

No one in any of those other cities refers to their town as the "B-U-F" or "D-A-L" or "H-O-U". I'll give you NYC, but like I said "not many", that's 2.

 

Here in the city, it isnt "hotlanta", it's "The A-T-L".

 

Every time I read/hear that, it reminds me of Jim Rome. That's the only way I've ever heard him refer to that city. I can't recall him ever saying, "Atlanta".

They're terrible, very xfl or arena leagueish . Not even close to the worst jerseys of all time that's silly.

 

TB Bucs meanwhile went from some of the worst jerseys in the league to some of the best, new unis are real sharp.

Garbage minus the throwback.

 

I don't mind the new ones, but the throwback is much better.  Just roll with that one.

The one on the far right is the best, which I guess is the throwback.  Seems like an unnecessary change, like a uniform switch will make the Falcons better.

 

they've gotta try something I guess??

The "ATL" looks terrible.

 

Are they really going to wear white jerseys with red pants?

 

The throwback looks great. They should just switch to that permanently, and bring back the old Falcons logo.

The throwback is really sharp. Everything else...yikes. The two on the left are the best of the new jerseys but they're saying they'll be going monochrome for their main jersey combos.

 

What I had heard was that the Falcons and Rams were going to be gross and the Bucs, Browns, and Chargers were going to be relatively decent. Seems like they're 2/2 so far.

Are the throwbacks the ones on the far right- black top/white bottom- because I like them.

you think Atlanta’s uniforms are bad, take a look back at these. I HATED these uniforms, they were so ugly.

The road ones looked awful- which was appropriate for most of those teams.

I don't think they are that good, personally. Not terrible. Just nostalgic because they look more like the one's they had in the late 90's and early 2000's. I haven't ever liked their logo or grayish tan helmets.

Those new uni's are garbo as my kids would say. I feel bad for Atlanta fans about now. They will loathe this decision almost immediately when those jersey sales plummet.

I bet there are plenty of blind, faithful Atlanta fans that will buy them. I wouldn't expect a huge drop off in sales.

Yeah, there is a TP shortage right about now.

Fans have been clamoring to go from Red back to the old school Black for a while. The Deion throwbacks already have a buzz going.

I think yall need a reminder of what the Falcons had before this and how bad it was. Very Bills 2002...

I don't think that looks bad, honestly. And I am pretty picky when it comes to uniforms.

Its all really bad, especially the whites, but the fact that the stripe didn’t match just seemed so idiotic to me. I think the stripe bothered me the most. And the fact that we sucked.
