Bills fan since 87 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Don't want to turn this into a like them/dislike them thread. Been plenty of those already. Just curious if anyone knows how long the current deal runs through? Will they be back next seaon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I’d have thought they’d be long gone by now as some teams have long ago trashed them. I think they’re a ridiculous eyesore. Unfortunately for us, Josh Allen has proclaimed his love of them. He can’t wear them enough. That’s right up there with his crazed devotion to Bieber. The boy is strange, but I’m glad he’s our QB.. currently. 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was a league wide deal with Nike or whoever came up with them, but I might be wrong. As much as I dislike them I might get my Diggs jersey in red just because I have a road and away jersey for every style going back to the 80s. It would complete the collection in a way. Edit-Looked it up, the league discontinued them in 2018. Only certain teams still do them.

I want to see the Bills wear Blue Jerseys with Red Pants, then Red Jerseys with Blue Pants. Try and adjust your tint during that.

JOE IN HAMPTON ROADS Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 our color rush works great in blizzards and we should reserve the right to wear them at home in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baba Booey Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Not a fan of the Red on Red uniforms. But wouldn’t be against seeing the Red jersey with white pants. Might be an alright look. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 They are my second least favorite current Bills uniforms (least favorite is a all blues), but I definately don't mind seeing them once a year. I personally like the fact that they change it up a lot. Gets kind of boring seeing the same home and away uniforms for every game. I'd like to see the red jerseys with white pants. I think that would look good, but then you start looking like the old patriots uniforms. 52 minutes ago, Baba Booey said: Not a fan of the Red on Red uniforms.

Would look sharp with the standing Buffalo helmet too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoPoy88 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 They’re voluntarily worn at this point. I don’t really mind them as much as others clearly do. But I would very much prefer the red jerseys be paired with white pants and the standing buffalo helmet as others suggested above. That kit would be an instant hit.

This is a pre-draft write up in 2006/7 most likely Fanning would have been 12 or 13 which is wild.

njbuff Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 I love the concept of white on blue in September and October, with blue on white in November and December. Why can't it be simple as that, in terms of the home games. And in general, it should ALWAYS be white over blue or blue over white. Keep it freaking simple.

T master Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I think they will be around for a while i love the red uni's especially since the Snovertime game which is 1 big reason why they should be made the home jersey for the Bills ! seeing that Buffalo can have a lake effect snow storm at most anytime late in the season like what happened in that game against the Colts the Bills had & would always have a advantage in a snow game wearing the Red jerseys the Colts with the white jersey's were at a serious disadvantage because of the white out in OP that day . Any advantage helps in December i think the Bills home jersey's should be the red ones not to mention i think they look great !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season the first 5 home games they had a different look. Home game 1 - was white on white current Home game 2 - blue over white Home game 3 - all blues Home game 4 - all reds Home game 5 - white on white throwback. If they insist on wearing the red jersey then then they should do red over white. Both the all reds and all blues look like crap IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To each his own the red over white would be fine with me but after re watching the Snowvertime game i think some version of the Red uni is definitely a plus for the Bills at home cause late in the season you never know when that odd snow storm could come off the lake & the red uni sticks out in a white out !!

Maybe Someday Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 Pretty sure the beginning of the end of the mandatory color rush was a few years ago when the Washington players refused the wear their all yellow unis. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.businessinsider.com/redskins-color-rush-uniforms-nope-2017-11%3Famp&ved=2ahUKEwiyn6zm9eXoAhUrmuAKHY9MAgoQFjACegQIDhAJ&usg=AOvVaw11DsFhwwBdPLCajs1j1INQ&cf=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

November at NEF: Buffalo Offense: Reds Buffalo Defense: White Hey, Buffalo is the home team. It's their prerogative!
