    I think they look pretty good. The collar doesn't look that bad people. Just wait till we see them in action on the field, they'll look sharp.

    Anyone know if Nike went back to a different fit for their tees? This past year they seemed to switch to extremely fitted tees. I've never worn a large that fit so tight (medium usually fit me just right).

    I think it looks good on some of the the other jerseys, but I don't particularly like it on ours.

    I don't even notice any difference. Hell, I don't even notice the difference in the Seahawks jersey. I guess I just don't really pay close attention to the unis. Y'all fashionistas have fun.

    Looking at the Andre pics, it looks like the numbers had to be moved lower to accommodate the wider neck. They look to be more on the stomach than the chest. Border color may be a bit thicker too. Could just be the quality of the pictures, but the red looks brighter as well.

    Seahawks are the only team with major changes... Nike always takes care of Oregan and Washington teams since that is their home state.

    Yeah, the numbers being lower looks kind of strange.

    I honestly think the new jersey and the collar look pretty good. I guess we'll get a better idea of what they'll be like when the jerseys are finally on the field, flying around and hurting the other team.

    come on now, the collar looks ridiculous. There is no way around it. Who has ever seen a collar that big before? How can a collar be that big? Furthermore, how did the folks over at Nike think this was a good idea?

    Looks like every team has that cut for the collar, the only difference is that they decided to make the entire collar red, while some teams, it's thin, or they have some pattern in that area.

    The only teams to have a trim color that goes all the way around are the Texans, Panthers, Eagles, and Falcons, though those teams seem to have thinner collars. The Falcons collar looks just like the old jerseys. The collars for the Panthers and Eagles are thicker, but not as thick as ours.

    The Packers jersey looks like the old ones too.

    Most teams have the flywire collar so the solid strip is broken up at the front of the neck. A lot of teams have the collar the same color as the rest of the jersey.

    New England has a 2 stripe collar with the outer one being gray/silver and the inner one being the same blue as the jersey, so it looks like a thinner stripe. The Cowboys jersey is kind of similar, thick collar but with thinner stripes.

    We're the only team to have a different colored collar that goes all the way around that is THAT thick.
