Is there anybody who DOESNT think every throwback uni leaguewide isn't far superior to the trash modern day unis? The Eagles kelly greens are fire. I loved the Bucs wearing the Creamsicles last week. The Vikings throwbacks are incredible. 

Why are teams not just going back to wearing the throwbacks weekly? I can guarantee every fanbase in the league would vote for that.

The Vikes throwbacks are the best, no reason for them to have ever made any kind of major changes.  Eagles in any uniform makes me puke  =)

i like the throwback uni and the shiny purple helmets, I just am not a fan of that matte purple. I would be totally on board for a permanent switch back to the old uni

I love the throwbacks. It's a money thing plus I think a lot of the younger fans like the modern arena football jerseys that a lot of teams have

Wait, you love the Creamsicles, or just the audacity to wear them…???

The different color purples from helmet to jersey always annoyed me.

Me. I think the throwbacks are fun for a change, but I think the best ever Vikings uniform is the current one. There are a few exceptions. The Lions for example. Also thought the Eagles kelly green throwbacks last night were pretty sharp. The Steelers' Bumble Bee meets 19th Century Prisoner look was goddam hideous.

Worst throwbacks had to be the Packers “Thing 1, Thing 2” by Dr. Suess.

Anyone remember those? the round yellow “dot” thing with the number on a blue jersey, with a “guacamole gone bad” helmet?

Everyone talks about the “Bumble bee - Blind melon” Steelers, but those Packers uni’s made me wish i was color blind

You had me until you went to the Tampa creamsicle uni.That's more like the fifth member of the village people territory. Also agree that the Vikings throwbacks are at the top. But I have grown to love the matter helmets.

I love the throwbacks that were worn week 1. Wish they'd keep them permanently.

Always liked the creamsicle uni’s the Buccaneers wore. Specially the swashbuckler helmet decal.

Vikings 70s uni’s should be worn forever.

I literally groaned when I saw the creamsicle uniforms. Ugliest in my lifetime and I am 67.
