George McCaskey announces next week they'll debut something uniform related for their 100th season.

My guess is some kind of 1930s fauxback thing. No yellow stripes!

I liked those jerseys. I may be the only one but I always wanted one.

40’s big blocks, or all orange jerseys at home would be cool.

Probably just a patch.

Hopefully they’re planning to have broken parts of Aaron Rodgers’ body dangling from Mack’s face mask for week 1.

I wouldn't be upset if they rolled out the original uniforms with the orange vertical stripes. It's a 100 year celebration, I kinda want to see the O.G. kits steamroll Erin to kick off the season.

1935 or so version. Like these much better than the other orange they wear.

That's what I was thinking too. And frankly hoping for. I may have to have a puke can ready if I have to watch 20+ games of awful fat stripes everywhere.

I like the orange jerseys occasionally, though.
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Go back to leather helmets, NFL.

I like the orange way better than the all whites.

maybe they will go all radical with this

found these by random search ... they would certainly be different

#1 - the wild one

Image

#2 - the joker half and half look

Image

#3 - the blue to orange fade

Image


I kind of like the blue to orange fade .... but I think it would need to be reversed, with the orange at the top transitioning to blue ... then it would work with the blue pants

I'm digging the uniform Bronco is wearing on the right here. Just don't dig up the O.G. Staley crimson & brown uniforms please.

the history of the Staleys is much more palatable than those crappy uniforms

How is this not a movie? I'd love to see a quality film about how the NFL came to be.

If I had to guess, it'll be a modernized version of the one on the right with the stripes (which I'd be fine with). There was a comment from Nagy at the Owner's meetings this week that he loved all the stripes at the remodeled Halas Hall.

Yeah everyone on the roster will have a 1 in front of their jersey for this season. Mitch is 110, Long is 175, etc.
I will kill you if you cut me at the knees. You will drink with me when invited and stay til I say so. We only listen to American Music. I make men nervous with just my presence. I expect an apology if you hold. I throw linemen at QB's. Believe the Lore!
