NFL uniform watch: Ranking of all 32 team’s uniforms
By Randy Gurzi
29. New England Patriots
The New England Patriots do nothing but win. They win more games than anyone during the regular season, and they win more games in the post season. They also win each offseason by dumping players (looking at you Vince Wilfork) at the perfect time to let a different team down.
They’re lucky they are able to look so good in the win columns and even better with their player moves, because on the field they don’t look so pretty.
I guess they went for the red, white and blue color scheme of the American flag, which makes sense with them being the “Patriots.” The problem is the colors aren’t right, especially the blue.
To make matters even worse, they sure don’t have a solid alternate uniform to wear (but what do you expect from a team owned by a guy with only one shirt in his closet). Admittedly, this uniform is better than the one they wore during the days Bill Parcells was coaching and Drew Bledose was lined up under center.
Still, to be perfectly honest, this is a team that would be best served to return to their roots. A throwback to their original uniforms would be much better. The Patriot snapping the ball on the helmet was a thing of beauty, sometimes it’s better not to change.
Maybe there is a petition we can all get started on Change.org or something, who knows maybe everyone will stop hating on the Pats if they go back to their original look. Oh…and if they stop the whole cheating thing. That would help too.
