falcndave Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Julian from Decatur Do you think the Falcons will ever bring back the all-black uniforms?? Those were dope!! Matt: I can’t give out any uniform secrets yet, Julian, but keep checking back here. I think you’ll be pleased. -------------------------- We had a number of uniform threads earlier in the preseason. Tabeek has been dropping consistent hints this week that individuals who are fans of black unis, "will be happy." Does anyone have the early scoop yet. When, how often, which version? I need to know!

Dirtybird3 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 All home divisional and televised games would be nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcndave Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 That would be cool. I would love to see the black jersey's for the home opener. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParanoidAndroid Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Still holding out hope for new uniforms in Season 2 of Mercedes Benz Stadium. Blank and McKay had enough on their plate this year with the roof delays and whatnot. I think with the roof fixed, GA dome demolished, and a SB win, it will be perfect time to unveil them.

FalconBlood23 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 To be honest those black unis were amazing but I really like those uniforms from like the 70 or 80 was it? Someone on here has it as their sig on here. It's like Red helmets, red jersey, and white pants with a streak of black on the side. I like those the best. If those could be our home and this our away? That be amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If those could be our home and this our away? That be amazing I'm pretty sure we can't have black away jerseys and red home jerseys, because NFL uniform policy dictates every team has to have white away jerseys. The home team for each game gets to choose if they want to wear their home (primary team color) jerseys or their white (away) jerseys, and the opposing team has to wear the opposite. Most of the time, the home team will elect to go with their home uniform. However if they play outdoors in the south or out west & it's stupidly hot outside, they sometimes choose to wear their away jerseys at home... because they are white & absorb less heat... thus gaining a possible advantage by making the visiting team wear the heat-absorbing darker colored jerseys instead.

This isn't Tampa!!!!!!! .........or Jacksonville!!!! Well at least the NFL did suspended the blackout rule I believe. Otherwise, their fans would be screwed. Maybe not so much the Bucs fans(unless they still have a problem with attendance) now but for sure Jags fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We opted out of them last season because the Thursday game we played was in TB. TB also had red color rush uniforms, so they got to wear theirs for that game & we wore the away white uni. This season our one Thursday night game is Dec. 7 at home against the Saints. The Saints color rush uni are white, so it will work that both teams are in their color rush uniforms for that game... Falcons in red, Saints in white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give lengthy responses Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I want to see red helmet, black jersey, red pants just once. Would be a sick look but I know we don't have red pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe some BS rule about the helmets prevents them from using the red helmets anymore but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 The Falcons Color Rush game is Dec. 7 vs NO. The Saints Color Rush uniform was all black last year, but the home team gets the call on the color so there is a good chance that the Falcons go all black, on that day that will live in infamy for the bayou.

I believe some BS rule about the helmets prevents them from using the red helmets anymore but I could be wrong. Yeah they have to use the same helmets all year for every game. I think they have specialized helmets that are specifically fitted for each player. The NFL is to sporting equipment what Formula 1 is to auto parts so they have state of the art everything. I would think they have a back-up helmet and I'm pretty sure they paint them for every game or else the helmets would be all scratch marks by the 3rd game. I guess even the NFL realizes it's not smart to pay several thousand dollars for helmets they use twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
