Quote:Really gaudy uniforms can grow on people if a team has a winning history. Jags get no love, for having bad uniforms and having subpar play. There are some really horrible color schemes and logos for a bunch of teams, but the schemes and colors become a thing of dread for their opponents. Green Bay has terrible colors, and a big "G" for a logo. But the cheeseheads have grown to love their colors. I honesty believe that we became a dynasty, we would be talking about how great and innovative the Jags' uniforms are.

 

I think you're right. The Jaguars uniforms are currently pretty bad thanks to that ill advised helmet, but there are a lot of teams with terribly ugly uniforms. The Broncos are, I think, a classic example of some of the worst uniforms in professional sports being ranked marginally higher because of the success and popularity of the team itself. The bengals, bucs, and browns all have pretty terrible uniforms right now, and I've thought that the bucs new uniforms are some of the worst I've ever seen, right down there with those bizarre patchwork uniforms that Maryland had in college football a few years back.

 

If the Jaguars start winning the perception of their uniforms will change. Win a few superbowls and suddenly people will think the terrible helmets are just really distinctive.
