Wasn't this a disaster the last time we tried doing this?  

 

It was kinda hard to get motivated as fans during the Rex regime.

Plus social media is much more popular, all fans will get the message.

Between that and those God awful uniforms in some college or USFL team’s colors, I’m glad I’ll be home for this one. 

 

Quit screwing with a great thing.

It'll make it easier to pick out the Pats* fans, at least.

 

 

Never gets old.   He was right we will be talking about these morons for 25-30 years!  Hahaha

It’s not even all whites. I’m OK with all whites, as long as the white is white and they don’t mess with the helmet.  This is more the color of the abominable snowman in cartoons. 

 

 

They just want to sell more white gear. I’m not buying.

I’m getting over the NFL just fine, and it’s more than those ugly uniforms.

White jersey has never been a team color?

 

I mean... by that standard, white is a color for the other 31 teams as well.  It's just an odd choice, that's all.

I’m spending less and less time on the NFL’s lawn these days. (I bet that is Roger’s wife.) If it’s ugly, I’m not afraid to say so.

is this a football game or a Vanilla Ice concert?

That never made sense to me. The crowd is wearing all white except the team which wears their home navy blue jerseys. 

[T.E.]

This is the kind of stuff that newish NBA franchises do when they're trying to inorganically build tradition. The whole "Mr. Brightside" thing falls under this dynamic too, by the way.

 

It's kind beneath a franchise like the Bills, in my opinion, but I think there is a big push across the league to appeal to the under-25 crowd. Seems the NFL is having trouble with viewership in that demo, and this is they type of stuff they like, I guess.

I’m surprised that it took them this long to announce this “plan.” As soon as they released these jerseys, the white out was obvious. The Bills always look clean in white. The uniforms are 🔥🔥🔥. It’s nice to have a change up.

Did you ever see his home remodeling show from like 5 years ago? That guy can definitely remodel a house!

They are also wearing the all-white throwbacks for their home game against the Bucs.

Yes I agree , at least the Bills are wearing their frost ones so it makes color sense

EDIT: Because they are not as atrocious as the Steelers Bumblebee uniforms does NOT mean they are a good thing.

Careful Augie. You are awfully close to receiving the dreaded RochesterFan eyeroll emoji.

At scale I like the premise, but I don't like the jerseys, like at all. Firm believer that they missed a real opportunity to incorporate Zubaz into the rivalry gear. They could have kept it white, but gone Zubaz numbers. 

 

I am shocked they waited until Tuesday before the game to say anything. (Maybe even a little annoyed?)

 

Also I am wearing my home Tre White jersey and my Zubaz shorts to the game. I know, I know, white out....But it is my jersey for this season, we are 4-0, and I am not changing. To my point this team is way more entrenched in red and blue/zubaz than it is a "white out". This seems like a strange ask. If they had a "Zubaz Game" and loaded the Bills store with Zubaz only gear, they likely crank up sales waaaaay more than the white out. 

I am curious if they waited until today to announce the "white out" based on sales being slow? Like if the white out was always the plan, why not announce it way earlier?  Or if jersey sales are on track, why bother, the crows is likely going to be white anyways.

Thats fine.  No one is going to see your shorts during the game unless you do something awesome.
