falconfanEST1989 1,928 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 "The 1966 throwbacks uniforms are here to stay. For at least four more seasons, the Falcons will strut in those classics for at least one game. Falcons president Rich McKay told the team's website the story about how the plan involved a five-year commitment to the old jerseys, helmets and pants. Last season, they asked the players if they liked how the uniforms looked. The players approved of the look and asked to wear them for two games. The Falcons went 2-0 in the throwback uniforms."

=abrahamburger= 2,566 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 They need to keep the throwbacks for all-time, every home game. Black Jersey with Red Helmet = Mean Looking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

falconfanjason 88 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I wish they'd wear them for more than one game! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falconfanEST1989 1,928 Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 my vote would be to wear them twice also one home and one away game Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Upark25 17 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'm a fan of the throwbacks very nice touch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blackredfellow 2,040 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Now I feel a little better about plunking down 80 bucks for my Ryan throwback. I get to wear it at least 4 more times! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Statick 13,278 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Well, I got my throwback and I'm keeping it FOREVER! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BCEagleATLFalcon 11,361 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Good stuff. I really like the throwbacks. I just hope Ryan and Turner last the whole game in them next time!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Radiohead 716 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'm not so sure. I mean, I like the wins and the look of them, but I think you all are forgetting something.Week 2: First appearance with the "Throwback" Jersey. -- Peria Jerry goes down for the enitre 2009 season.Week 12: Second appearnce with the "Throwback" Jersey. -- Matt Ryan went down with turf toe injury on the first offensive series and Michael Turner re-aggrevated his right high ankle sprain.I'm not all that superstitious, but I am enough to see the warning signs. If getting wins while wearing these jerseys means we have to sacrifice our franchise players to injury... NO THANKS! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FlyHighFalcons 538 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I definitely love the red helmets. Maybe we should experiment a little bit. Maybe they could try the old black but with the new logo everywhere you would normally see the old one. I still like our new red ones though, but I also wonder what the old black ones would look like red? I know we've had very similar red jerseys before but the throwback blacks are different from what the actual throwbacks looked like because they made them more "neat" and modernish.

jstammer 277 Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 I'd like to know why we didn't wear the white jerseys over black pants on the road at all this year. I was hoping for at least one game with that look. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
