We are back for another week of NFL Color Rush. This Thursday night features a divisional matchup between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers. What will the Color Rush uniforms look like?
What a crazy Thursday Night Football game we saw last week. NFL Color rush is finally starting to bring us some excitement. In a game no one expected to be close or even interesting, the Rams beat the 49ers in a 41-39 thriller. It set the tone for what was one of the best weeks of NFL football we’ve seen in a long time. This Thursday has some hype to live up to.
The Chicago Bears (1-2) to Wisconsin to take on the Green Bay Packers (2-1) in a divisional showdown. The game kicks off from Lambeau Field at 8:25 p.m. ET.
It was an interesting combination of Color Rush uniforms last week. The Rams wore their controversial, but flashy all Mustard uniforms while the 49ers were more conservative with an all black color concept. What will the uniforms look like for each team this week? Let’s just say, the jerseys will look much more tame this week.
Both the Packers and Bears will be wearing the same Color Rush uniforms from last season. The Bears Color Rush uniforms look exactly the same as the home uniforms, but have the navy pants to match the navy top. The white numbering and orange strips on the side help the jersey pop. It’s a definitely a good look all around.

The Packers on the other hand go with the all white uniforms with the green and yellow stripes on the side. Some like it, some don’t, but I think it’s a clean look overall. You never want to go too flashy and this doesn’t cross the line. To the people who say the Packers should go with the all green look, you’re crazy. Blending in with the grass would make for a ridiculous look.

In their first the first meeting of the season, it’s tough to predict what to expect from this game. The Packers are the better team, but come off a nail-bitter win against the Bengals in overtime. The Bears looked horrid in the first two games of the season but really turned things around in an overtime win against the Steelers.
