It's statistically proven. Blue pants are a bad luck charm

 The Bills already posted all white vs KC.

 

I hadn't seen that, thanks! I was hoping that would be the case, even though visually I still really like the white shirts/blue pants.

I actually think that is why Mahomes puts up really good numbers in the red uniforms. It’s easy as a thrower to identify better. 

Someone should break down Allens throwing stats vs jersey type. 

Blue tops white pants provide a large contrast and the blue is eye high so as to resemble a target. Even watching the games you get a clear eye popping visuals from the uniforms. They are sharp, and I’m willing to bet Allen has his best throwing stats in them because of the visual enhancements.

I'm not good with the all blue. I've been noting this since the Kelly days when blue was home and white was away. I don't have the specifics, but it seemed like we were always much better in the white. That being said, if they wear all blue in L.A,

I'd have to take the Rams and the 2.5.  even though I never bet Bills games.

What will the Ram be wearing?

This explains pretty much everything... I wore blue pants to my high school graduation.

 

I wore blue pants to my HS graduation, college graduation, and wedding. I've had a successful career and I'm still happily married. I'll take my 41-year trend over the OP's two-year trend. 😉

I prefer blue on white, but I like the blue on blue a lot as well

I’m on record, cannot stand the monochrome look, blue on blue, yuck. Home games should be blue over white and road games should be white jerseys and white/blue pants. (unless the home team chooses to wear white jerseys).

 

But whatever, i have no control over it… just win the darn game.

I gotta wonder...if both teams are wearing blue tops, who does it benefit...I'm thinking home team. IMO the Bills should be white tops at least, better all white.

I guess for me, aesthetically, I don't like when the jersey matches the helmet or pants, but not both.  Like the color-rush white helmet, red jersey and pants, white helmet, blue jersey and pants, white helmet, white jersey and blue pants.  So, I like the all white, head to toe and the white helmet and pants with blue jersey.  I would like the red jerseys much better with white pants.  If we went red helmet, I'd like blue jersey and white pants with, or white jersey and blue pants.

 

Otherwise, just looks too much like "one of these things is not like the other".

Weren't we blue on blue in the Saints Thanksgiving Day game last year? Did they not count that?
