There were 6 games that fit that bill.<br /><br />NO-PHI: the only time these two teams got it right this century was Week 12 of '03. The Saints in black pants ruined the Eagles wearing their good home unis.<br /><br />STL-GB: dear Rams, please move back to LA. Maybe that will bring back the gold pants.<br /><br />JAX-TB: in their six regular season games in a 21-year span, not once have the Bucs been in dark jerseys. Make a Jags-Bucs game in Tampa later in the year next time.<br /><br />SEA-CIN: everything was right about this, except the Seahawks pants which ruined it.<br /><br />BUF-TEN: are the Titans going to join the Cowboys and (mostly) Dolphins in being exclusively WAH? If so, what a shame.<br /><br />CLE-BAL: last year in the season finale I ranked this as the #1 uni matchup of the week. What a difference a year makes. This is not only the worst looking matchup of the week, but one of the worst of all time. The Browns hideous look needs no further explanation, and the Ravens in all black - horrible.<br /><br />Now, for the first time this season, the majority of a week's games are rankable.<br /><br />8. NE-DAL: correct unis, but it again makes me miss Pat the Patriot and the red jerseys.<br /><br />7. IND-HOU: a decent look, but I have to be honest. It wouldn't upset me if the Texans made eed their primary home jersey color.<br /><br />6. DEN-OAK: not the greatest in the world but what makes this matchup decent enough is the silver and black.<br /><br />5. CHI-KC: I've always preferred the Bears in all white on the road. But this looked nice enough.<br /><br />4. WAS-ATL: a great look. But I liked 3 better.<br /><br />3. PIT-SD: like Tim, I thought the Bolts would have gone with the powder blue, but they did me proudm the navy and white with hints of gold looked great against the Steelers black and gold with white jerseys.<br /><br />2. ARI-DET: both teams in their regular stuff and the color contrast was a great visual treat.<br /><br />1. SF-NYG: last year I couldn't rank this game since the G Men went with white pants. This time they went with gray and it looked awesome under the lights against the Niners road version of their gold scarlet and white.Kylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04872179907017343614noreply@blogger.com
