Well when you can't compete on the field, you might as well dazzle then with ... whatever the hell that is.

I really don't see anything wrong with the jersey besides the font choice, which is more amusing than awful.

That's about 5 billion times worse than the uniforms we had.  |

I'm trying to think of an uglier non-'throwback' NFL uniform and I'm coming up short.

Go back and look at the jerseys. Honestly, the thing that was "ugh" about the XFL were the sideshow shit and the names. The jerseys were rather basic. |

The font is silly but the important part (to me) is always the helmet, and the helmet looks just fine. I'd rather they went back to Mr. Saucy Pirate, but I have to learn to let go on that front.

I don't hate the uniforms, I just hate the fact that every NFL team is trying to move more merchandise by doing this gimmick every few years. I want to find the people buying this shit and club them over the head, because they are the problem.

I don't think it's as dire as you make it out to be. The main reason we had a change the last two years now is because of a new clothing sponsor, Nike. Otherwise, most teams haven't changed much at all over the last decade or so.

The helmet is actually one of the things I dislike the most. The size of the old flag was fine. Bigger is not always better. |

The only problem I have with a uniform like that is that it is a bit too...generic. Hey, what color are those Bucs uniforms? Uh...brown. And white. And orange and orangey-red. It doesn't even match itself, if you know what I mean.
When your team name and mascot are based on a pirate theme, you should be able to do better. Shit, they did it better themselves with the creamsicles and the swash-buckley pirate guy. You can adjust the specifics, but I think the better uniforms keep a certain consistency about them. They keep the flag, but the rest of it doesn't fit well with it.

http://nfl.si.com/2014/03/05/cleveland-browns-new-uniforms/We go next. At least they are sticking with the helmet... though I am not sure what logo you could possibly slap on it to make it different. I guess different striping, but either way - no change there. Since they play in northeast Ohio, I am sure they'll have some kind of traffic barrel orange jersey at some point.
