It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.

I hate to admit that the Packers Green and Yellow at least stands out. Not a common combo in any of the sports, and Seattle is the only other team that uses green and that's more of a highlight than anything. Still love the Bears though, but I like it better when it's more blue than orange, unless they want to go full pumpkin and go orange everything. Then I could dig it because it would be ridiculously stupid looking that I would love it.

E: completely forgot about jets and eagles somehow.

Just keep looking at what we're doing, keep watering and ask yourselves first and know 'Are you watering? And are you fertilizing every day?' So when it's time to pop, it'll pop.

I think Denver and the Eagles are kind of in the same boat where they've both had basically the same design for ~25 years and it's at the point where it feels a bit stale, but if they hang on to them for another decade people will rank them alongside the rest of the classic jerseys just because they've been around so long. And since both teams have had their greatest success in those jerseys, why wouldn't they keep them?

Speaking of brown on uniforms, Green Bay had a throwback combination I saw once that did something I think was really cool -- since the rest of the uniform was the scheme they had way back in the 20's when the club was founded, they used all-brown helmets to replicate the color of the original all-leather helmets.

My high school I have mixed feelings about had brown and gold as their colors and it was far too much toilet for me and ruined brown for me as a uniform color even if it’s present plenty aesthetically in my life (clothes, plants, furniture, etc) but it’s just a rough uniform color really

Ms Brooks caught a glance at the game between the 49ers and Seahawks, where the Seahawks were playing in their lime green uniforms. When she saw the score she said that the Seahawks were losing because their "costumes" were so ugly the players were embarrassed to wear them.

Alright, I'm bored.

AFC West

Chiefs: I admire a team that hasn't changed its look in 60 years. Every combo of their unis except the all red they bust out once a year have a nice classic look. A-

Raiders: Same deal as the Chiefs but with better colors. Old school logo that looks goofy on close inspection but has that classic charm. Black/Silver and White/Silver both look great. A+

Broncos: Fell into the navy trap of the late 90s and still haven't gotten out. They've tried to use orange jerseys more since the Manning days, but it's probably the worst shade of orange in pro sports. D

Chargers: Their recent re-design was a big hit. The powder blue/yellow and white/yellow combos are both extremely sharp. A+

AFC North

Steelers: A true classic. Black/yellow and white/yellow combos both look great. Only slight point against is the italic numbers. A

Browns: I'm glad they've stuck with the ridiculous orange helmets for their tenure. Brown jerseys are kind of a necessity with the name, but the whites look way better. All white and white/orange are nice looks. The brown/orange combo they've been favoring at home is a bit of an eyesore. B

Bengals: The helmet has always been a winner, the jerseys are alright. Can't really go wrong with black/orange. The snow tiger thing is kinda cool once a year, but the regular white jersey needs more orange accents. B+

Ravens: Black with purple and gold accents is hard to mess up, but they still have some meh combos. The purple jerseys should never be worn with the black pants, and black jerseys with white pants looks off with a black helmet. All black, all white, white/black, and purple/white all look good. B+

AFC South

Texans: Born in the time of navy. The metallic red helmets are a good effort, but they've yet to find something with the current color scheme. C-

Colts: Simple, classic. Those black alts are an abomination, but their regular unis are solid, if uninspiring. B

Titans: Voluntarily went to more navy in the 2020s. Too much going on with the jerseys, even the powder blue can't bring much life to them. D

Jaguars: They had the right idea to go back to teal and black, even if it's the lame early 2010s shade of teal instead of the awesome 90s one. Their logo is derpy and the color combos aren't quite right. C+

AFC East

Bills: White helmet is nice and the blue and white unis are fine. The all red is trying too hard. B-

Dolphins: Unis have steadily gotten worse since the 70s, but the color scheme is still unique. I dislike that they lean into the all white unis more, which is their worst combo. B-

Jets: Like the metallic green helmets, but it doesn't really work with their regular jerseys, especially the hideous black alts. The all white throwbacks are sharp. C+

Patriots: These have to be the worst unis in the NFL. Extremely lazy re-design that doesn't match anything. How do you keep those Bledsoe/Brady era silver helmets but have no silver accents on any uniform? Those whites are exceptionally heinous. F

NFC West

49ers: They did the right thing going back to the 80s look, with some occasional 90s drop shadow sprinkled in. A

Rams: Trying to go more classic, but also trying to be too fancy and "forward looking." The font is stupid and the off-white is drab. That said the blue/yellow and white/yellow combos carry the day. B

Cardinals: New all whites are surprisingly good. The more red that's added, the worse they get. B-

Seahawks: The only good original Nike idea. The unis are busy, but the neon green actually makes the navy work. The all neons are so audacious, they're beautiful. Extra credit for the beautiful 90s throwbacks A+

NFC North

Packers: They haven't changed much since before the first SB, and for good reason. Unique color combo and the yellow pants work with the green or white jerseys. A-

Bears: Another real classic. A rare navy that doesn't suck. The orange is the perfect accent color and the white/navy combo is excellent. They lose points for trying to make the all orange a thing, though. A-

Lions: In the process of getting back to their roots. The font still drags down an otherwise fine color scheme. B

Vikings: The matte purple helmet is pretty good. White/purple combo looks good, others so so. B

NFC South

Bucs: At least they got rid of the alarm clock font. No idea what they're doing with the comically large version of the flag logo, though. Colors are fine, but they should always wear pewter pants. C+

Falcons: They had perfect unis in the 90s and remind us of that once a season. The 2000s helmet tries way too hard as do the current unis. C

Panthers: Great color palate, but why are they wearing white/black at every opportunity? Their unis are so easy. Silver pants, with black, white, or blue jerseys, yet they screw it up. Plus, someone once pointed out their current logo looks like their last one got stung by a bunch of bees and I can't unsee it. D+

Saints: Black/Metallic gold is easy mode, but at least the Saints generally stick with it. All black and all white are no goes, but either with metallic gold pants are a winner. B+

NFC East

Cowboys: They do stick to the classics, but it's one of the blander classics. The white star helmets they bust out on Thanksgiving rule, though. B-

Giants: Not sure why they made unis with less blue in the 2000s. "GIANTS" is superior to "NY" too, as evidenced by their handful of throwback games every year. C

Commanders: Talk about a team searching for an identity. Desperately trying to keep the burgundy/yellow thing going, but still throwing poo poo at the wall with jersey ideas and can't find a good logo. D-

Eagles: Midnight green is unique, but still a downgrade from the kelly green. The more black that's added, the worse it gets. B-

Same, in appreciation and boredom, so here’s the official Blind Pineapple hierarchy of divisions:

AFC West: 89, B+
AFC North: 89, B+
AFC South: 74.75, C
AFC East: 74.75, C

NFC West: 90.25, A-
NFC North: 88, B+
NFC South: 77.25, C+ (barely)
NFC East: 76, C

In order:
NFCW
AFCW/AFCN
NFCN
NFCS
NFCE
AFCS/AFCE

A+ got a 100 because it should and f got a 59 so the pats wouldn’t tank their whole division. Otherwise it was b+/c+/d+ got 88/78/68, a/b/c/d 95/85/etc, and b- got 81 and y’all can figure it out from there.

I appreciate the parity in the AFC. And this looks about right to me. Maybe this pineapple sees more than we think

Realized the other night that this is why I can't bring myself to think of them as anything other than the WFT. Never mind how generic and uninspired the name "Commanders" is, they still just slap a "W" on the helmet and call it a day. There's no logo or mascot representing the name and if they can't be bothered to to go all-in on their stupid title then why should anyone? What even is a "Commander" in this instance? A "Commander" of what?

I guess I get keeping the "W" though, they have a hard enough time finding those.
