    i don't like the vikings colors either, but they do use the darkest purple possible. still not a fan though.

    anyways, what can i do? i cheer for the dolphins because i'm from miami, not because of their color combinations. if that were the case, i would be cheering for the steelers or something. :/

    Funny thing is, the colors are essentially why I'm a die-hard Dolphins fan today. When I was little and getting into football the Dolphins were on TV a lot up here and I fell in love with the uniqueness of the colors. I'd never seen it before in sports. My family is all Giants fans but I found them boring. I was really into the unique colored team who was the rival of the local team. Sure, Dan Marino had some to do with it as well but mostly it was the look.

    That's why I will always defend the colors and always want them to be the same, and no, I don't consider this change to be different colors, they're lighter, but they'll still the same in essence. They're still unique.

    I was like this too in a way. Growing up in NY, my dad is a Giant fan. Me and my brothers are all the same exact age so we all got into football and sports at the same time. One brother whos not really that much into sports, as much as me and my other brother, is a Giant fan like my dad. My other brother became a Cowboy fan, switch to a Jet fan because of my Uncle. I liked rooting against him, and I picked the Dolphins, loved the color scheme and everything about them. My favorite color growing up was Carolina Blue, but something about the Aqua and orange appealed to me.

    Uniqueness of colors was the reason why the Bucs used to be my second favorite team.

    Other Logo tibits from the 3 teams getting new Unis.

    Vikings:
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Jags:
    From Uniwatch
    1) The leaked image posted a month ago was indeed legit. It showed a replica of the black home jersey.
    2) The Jags logo patch on the jersey is facing toward the left because the unis will have a military theme (collar devices and patches in the military face toward the heart).
    3) Continuing with the military theme, the players’ last names will appear the front of the jersey under the patch, to mimic the look of a military uniform.
    4) The sleeves will have a multi-colored design similar to the what the Falcons have, featuring black, gold, chrome, and teal. In the leaked image you can see the beginnings of some silver/chrome stripe patterns starting on the shoulder area.
    5) The jersey will have side panels with some sort of design that will continue into the pants design.
    6) The helmet shell will be two-tone — starting out gold and then fading into black.
    7) The logo will be somewhat larger than normal for an NFL helmet — think Boise State’s Pro Combat helmet.
    8) There will be an alternate teal jersey

    So after all this information and the pics I have seen, and the info we have on the new Phins unis, imo, the Vikings will have the best change. Love the stripes on their uni, and love the simple numbers, no outlines, this jersey is going to be a real nice looking Jersey imo. The Dolphins will have the 2nd best design. No stripes, but a simple design, and if they stay away from the black/navy, its going to be a good looking uniform. The Jags will continue to have the worst unis in the league. I mean I hated the leaked uniform they showed, but players last name on the front is going to look stupid.Two-tone helmet is going to look terrible imo. Everything above makes me think the Jags uni is going to look out of place in the NFL

    its all about perspective. I mean yeah on a hot rod purple is not going to look girly, but yellow is the same thing. On a football team, Vikings purple and Ravens purple do not look feminine on them, and imo neither does the aqua on the dolphins!

    I agree with the aqua not looking feminine. I'm on your side. I was just answering the "purple being aimed at girls" idea. ;)

    Looks like there are two orange stripes above the "Riddell" around the Aqua stripe. Some speculated there would be blue replacing it. That could be there as well obviously next to the orange, but glad that it seems like its still mainly a big aqua stripe with the orange around it.

    Simple stripes like that would be awesome. Would make up for the subpar logo.

    The Ryan Tannehill pic basically proves that the two pics I have seen were early version of the uni. Looks more like the 2nd pic I seen, and looks better then the pics I have seen! I am excited! I think its pretty much creates ease for me that Navy/black will not be outlining the numbers!

    One thing I will say is Nike loved to incorporate black into Uniforms. Look at the new UNC uniforms. http://i.imgur.com/ZNp9WNo.jpg They are carolina blue and white, not black

    I honestly believe, based on the pics I have seen that they tried to put black into the Dolphins somewhere but the Dolphins, smartly too, decided not to as it does not fit them! Good move Miami!

    Well it could be orange on the outside, aqua in the middle, and black/navy in-between - I think that is what Crazy was speculating...remains to be seen...a week we will know. I do love the white facemask though, so much better than the aqua.

    I guess there is a small chance but I think its aqua and orange. in the pic in crazy avatar, the orange is thin, in this its thicker. IDK I think the Dolphins dropped the navy/black from the uni overall

    I personally think Miami had so many mocks that were out there. I mean i am looking at two completely different unis and styles. The pics seem to be a early version of the Dolphins uniform

    Everything about those UNC uniforms is terrible. They are at the top of the worst list in college, and it is sad because they used to be at the top. Horrible decision to make black a main color and to make it so prominent in the uniform. They look more Carolina Panthers than UNC Tar Heels.

    Not sure why the Riddell is orange on the straps and white on the bumper. Wish it was just said MIAMI, DOLPHINS or PHINS.

    I think hes talking about how it looks on the uniform, the other is how it looks on the web and posters and things. Regardless of the color, its going to look darker on fabric
