This might be a first where I actually think these are an upgrade. What do you guys think? I haven't liked the Charger unis since they went to the darker Navy Blue away from thew brighter blue of the Fouts era. I like these though?

What other uni changes do you think were actually upgrades?

That powder blue is too wishy-washy for me :)

I know people liked the creamsicles but when the Buccaneers switched to the dark red and pewter, they instantly became one of the best uniforms in the league.

I list the new Chargers uniforms as my favorites at this time. I especially like the ones with the yellow pants and that TV numbers do not exist.

Yeah, I prefer the Air Coryell uniform scheme. Powder Blue is becoming too overdone.

I agree with the other poster that the Bucs' pewter look was a big upgrade from Creamsicle, On the opposite end, I think the original Atlanta Falcons uniforms were the best they ever had, and each subsequent uniform change has made it progressively worse.

Agree - it feels to me like the Falcons, along with many teams, just add more and more black with every uniform; same with the Eagles.

Every uniform change this offseason has been an upgrade. Atlanta’s is a wash. They were bad before and they’re still bad, just different. We still have the Rams to look forward to.

I think the Chargers got it right with the powder blues and the tv numbers. Classic look.

For Tampa, I still would have went back to the Creamsicle, but not to the horrid Bucco Bruce. I would put the current logo on there instead.

I agree, these look pretty sharp. For years I missed the powder blue of the AFL unis and I'm glad they're keeping it around. Not wishy-washy...ELECTRIFYING!
