7. Baltimore Ravens – Gold pants edition

How in the hell did the NFL powers that be let these eye-sores take the field? How were these green-lit? Who conceptualized them? How many desks did these damn pants cross where they got the OK? They had to have been rubber-stamped, right?

It’s only fitting that the Ravens wore these monstrosities at the end of a broken year. Just an ugly-looking, beaten down squad taking the field in absolute eyesore trousers. They’re supposed to be gold, but they look more like rust – just a non-sequitur to the entire franchise’s color scheme.

And speaking of non-sequiturs, there is no continuity or flow between the pants and the jerseys. The black and purple stripes extend upward along the outseam of the legs, into total oblivion. There’s no continuation into the tops; just a dead end road – much like the team’s season. The “B” on the side also looks completely out of place. It adds to the already disjointed loon of the pants. A black and purple racing stripe with a roadblock three-quarters of the way up, that ends abruptly by falling off a cliff.

If these pants were submitted on Project Runway, Heidi Klum would vomit on the floor and Nina Garcia would suggest the designer have his/her eyes get the Oedipus treatment, all while Tim Gunn lay curled up in the fetal position wondering where he went wrong as a mentor. The Ravens did not make it work. – JB
