What a joke, arguably the worst era of our franchise with bubble dummy Gus and Doug balogna Morrone. 2017 was a fluke… When I think vintage, good time Jags it’s the late 90s era uniform. Black helmets teal tops white bottoms. Throw the old logo on there too, the 2 tone helmets are amateur level [BLEEP] I’d expect to see from a cfl or arena team desperately seeking attention.

Or, the OG teal with Jaguar car logo on them and the white pants. I hate the two tones. I hate the gold mustard uniforms. This team really knows how to screw up easy picks.

Also, why the hell not involve your fanbase on this? Take a vote on Twitter and Instagram and let the fans pick.

We do that now…. Lol our primary is teal on black… bring back the OG teal top white bottoms in the late 90s uniform. Anything else and you’re just trolling. Those were peak Jaguars and unique, always remembered all my friends loving those and laughing at each new iteration up until recently.
These are my favorite of the "old-school" designs, but I don't really care too much about when and if they ever utilize a throwback, or which one they choose.

Personally I was a fan of the Pearl coated helmets.

These were bad too. The stripes would be all walked out depending on the size of the player and would look horrible. This team tries too hard to be cute spanning through both owners. Our “refresh” in the late 90s is by far our best uniforms, when we’d have teal/white then occasionally teal/black and then the back out prime time games. ?

There was nothing wrong with the teal sparkle helmet but all the other aspects of that uni are negative. The stripes and the borders on the numbers were so subtle that they look like more of an image artifact than an actual design feature.
The home uniform from 1998-2004 is the obvious choice for a throwback. Teal top, white numbers, crawling Jaguar, black helmet, white pants with fat teal and black stripes, black socks. 2nd choice would be the road uni from 2004-2008. White top, crawling jaguar, black numbers, plain black pants, black socks. The crawling Jaguar was there from 1995 to 2008. It deserves a brief comeback.
Reaaaallly stupid move.

We need to just go back to these unis full time. Similar to how the browns went back to theirs. Some uniforms are timeless and classy. Those were easily our best uniforms, and it isn't particularly close.

Throwbacks ought to be representing the origins or “past” times. That [BLEEP] seemed like it happened the other day. And the Jags sucked big ole donkey balls during that timeframe. I guess the car company won’t let them do the ‘90s unis? Whatever.
