Those are the best ones. I just wish they could change the gray facemask....

Seriously. The gray facemask looks ridiculous. Gold masks would look sick on that uni though.

The 70th anniversary throwbacks are definately my favorite uniforms. I hope we go with some kind of upgraded version of those.

For the most part, I like them too. The colors particularly. The jersey is a bit too busy for me, as I'm not a fan of the stripes with the arrow, plust the large numbers on the shoulder pads. I'd just tone is down some, and that's it, so something like this:

Yep. Making it gold would make it pop.

Looking at this Redskins 80th bus picture....what are those to the left of Gibbs?

edit.....yes they are trophies. They looked strange, couldn't tell what they were at first.

The NFL only allows you to have a home,away,and a alternate uniform. The gold pants we have been wearing are part of the 75th anniversary uniform which has been our alternate so it allowed us to use the pants like we have been. The Nike 80th anniversary unis will not have the same style of gold pants and probably wouldn't work with the normal home,away uniform. The alternate uniform may have a different style gold pants and the team likleywill wear the alternate at home this year.

Actually - as for the pants in a uniform, teams are permitted to wear "Pursuant to the official colors established for each NFL club in the League Constitution and Bylaws,
playing squads are permitted to wear only those colors or a combination of those colors for helmets, jerseys, pants, and stockings" (Section 4 article 2), and the Redskins official colors are:
"Washington Redskins - Burgandy and yellow-gold" (NFL Constitution Bylaws 19:9)

So you can still see them. No worries

That bus sort of reminds me of the old WWE Lex Express bus. I need a ticket

Yeah, I was getting ready to say: Were Clevelands' brown pants from a couple of years ago, part of an " alternate? "

not exactly bro. I understand the rules but the team is only allowed a home,away, and A alternate uniform and the unis for the year have to be designated before the year. obviously the skins will Have 1. White, 2. Burgundy, 3 is designated for the Alternate this season and what ever pants go with that uniform. so like i was saying depending on the alternate uniform we might not see the gold pants in the exact form we used the past 2 seasons because the pants probably wont work with the normal white or burgundy jersey.. thanks tho.

[MLSKINS]

I thought I heard something somewhere that the jerseys were predetermined but you could wear the pants whenever. If that is the case, would it matter if we were allowed to wear only three jerseys and four pants?

Im not sure what Cleveland designates their uniform combinations to be prior to the season. The redskins since Bruce Allen has been here have designated the Burgundy/white pants, White/Burgundy pants, 75th anniversary as a alternate which has allowed us to use the Gold pants from that uniform with burgundy jerseys at home. Skins actually had to wear white pants against the packers because that is our designated home color combo contrary to most people thinking we didn't wear them just because GB only has gold pants. Basically there a lot of weird rules that go into the uniform deal.

tha'ts not the case as far as i am aware. Teams declare three uniform combos prior to the start of the year and actually well ahead of time.

I don't think a gold facemask would look right. Can someone make it for us? I don't like the grey, but don't think gold/yellow or burgandy would work either. Maybe white??
