Something different (kind of) but not that exciting.
I don't care, as long as the Packers win the game!

Geez, we have a bunch of grumpy old men on here. Failed marketing scheme? We're talking about it, aren't we? People will attend the games and buy jerseys, won't they?

Some of them actually turned out great. I've always liked the Jets all green, and I think the Browns are an upgrade from their current.

All white - meh, kind of boring. Was hoping for something a little more exciting like gold, but it's not too bad.

It's not exactly off to the best start given the red-green color blind debacle in the Bills-Jets game and the piss taking over the Heinz ketchup and mustard bowl (Rams-Bucs) last year.

Most of the uniforms are an already existing home, away, or alternate jersey with re-colored pants to match. No one buys replica pants. For those teams, I'm not sure how the color rush drives incremental jersey sales. If the color rush comes at the expense of utilizing other alternate jerseys (e.g. The Packers navy throwback), you might actually lose jersey sales.

When you're pulling in over $9 billion a year, I would think you don't need to be so aggressive on finding new ways to pull in money. What about tradition? What about historical consistency? It seems as if they want to find anyway to make new money regardless of how it saturates the product.


Granted ...


Enough is enough. I stopped buying jerseys because they are too expensive and they just feel outdated at times because of all the changes. Thankfully the Packers haven't changed much at all though.

Correct, the Packers, Bears, and many others didn't change anything that people will buy, but other teams did. I just don't get why we're all so agitated about this. Playoff games aren't being moved to Hutson. They're not adding a 5th down, it's a jersey for one game. Big deal, live a little (I don't mean to direct this solely towards you).

I'm MUCH more concerned about effing with all the kickoff/extra point rules than the color of Clay's pants for one game.

Leave it to the Packers and the Bears to not change much or anything at all with their jerseys.

Personally, I don't care for color rush as it has looked awful most of the time.

All white at home is fine with me as long as the Packers have that W in the end.

I'll be honest, when I first saw the all whites I thought "so whats different about them. I had to think for a second what color their pants were. I knew they wore yellow pants with their home green jerseys but for a split second it didn't click that they wore the yellow pants on the road as well. I guess I'm more used to seeing all white uniforms so it wasn't that much of a shock

think they are much better than an all green and certainly an all yellow would have been. I haven't seen a game yet where the teams wore the color rush uniforms (though I did see some plays and images) so I can't really say if it would be a distraction or not. Didn't the Chiefs wear all red at one game last year. I know I recall thinking that's a bit much. Looked like a bunch of guys running around in red flannels.

I think they should try a game, in pre season probably, where they make both teams wear the exact same uniforms, You know, kind of like the IROC races where all the cars were set up identical to each other to pit the drivers against each other in a situation where no one had a car advantage. We could let them wear their own helmets and maybe the numbers could be their own color so there was at least a little differentiation but I think it would be kind of neat to see them all running around in the same color uniform. I know, make it in October and have them all wear pink then auction the jerseys off for breast cancer research.

A failed scheme that will still likely result in millions and millions of revenue. Sounds like a success to me.

Otherwise, I could care less. I don't buy jerseys anyway. I think it's kind of silly. So carry on.

As was said, the white jersey is just the Packers away jersey, so it won't affect sales at all.
They don't sell pants, so again, no difference.
I would have liked to see all gold (yellow, actually) uniforms. THAT would have at least been a lot different.
But as long as we win, I don't care about the colors.

As several people have pointed out, the white jersey doesn't effect GB jersey sales. There are other teams in the NFL. Many of them have new jerseys for this program. I was referring to the NFL as a whole not the Packers specifically.
