Throwback unis.


Recommended Posts

I like our red ones from the 70's as well. It's so stupid that the NFL has rules on how many alternates you can wear. If you're at home and want to wear a different jersey every game... why the **** not?

Because it would make the team unrecognizable to everyone else watching the game. Teams need to maintain a certain brand look for recognizability.

Maybe that rule was made just to discourage the aints from using those god awful gold jerseys again.

I love the throwback unis! I know this is random but I really do. I like the 1966 ones a lot, but I the black helmets and black jerseys from the 90s better. I miss the old logo. I like our logo now, but I want the old back.

Agreed, there's just somthing that's badass about that logo and those jerseys, they reek of ol school awesomeness.I love our current logo + jerseys even though they're more flashy and over the top. But hey hopefully the alternates are black on black this year.

I like the new logo much better than the old logo. The old logo, while I like it, looks better on a red background, and looks slow, and not really like a falcon. A falcon is more compact like our current logo. I hated the switch to the black helmet in the 90s. The new logo looks much better on black, but would be pretty sweet on a red one too.

I want an all black home jersey, maybe with a little red trim, and a red helmet.

Kind of like our 08 alternate, but with less busy sleeves. I'm not crazy about our red jersey at all.

Edit, those pro-combat ones with the red helmet are pretty sweet.

Current uniforms > combat nike >old ones. The falcons always had better uniforms in comparison to most of the league. But I was never thrilled with the old fashioned 3 stripes on any of the old uniforms albeit the falcons or any other team. Just looks dull and bland.

IMHO the current uniforms rock and are even better than these 'combat' variations as well.

Agreed. We do have awesome throwbacks, but that old logo needs to be left in the past. It looks outdated and bland

I personally like all the old and current jerseys :)

I found this online someone made, the 2012 Falcons Pro Combat uniform by Nike.

I like these except most players don't wear sleeves that show. I would prefer the stripes to be on the jersey.
