    Throwbacks to be worn in 4 games!

    Good news for those of us who love the throwbacks...

    Bills a big part of AFL legacy game schedule

    By Chris Brown - Posted May 5th, 2009
    The NFL announced which games on the 2009 schedule will be designated as AFL Legacy Games. There are 16 in all and the Bills are part of a quarter of those contests this season.
    In fact 11 Legacy Games will be match-ups between the eight original AFL teams.
    As most of you know the Bills and Titans will kick off the slate of Legacy Games with their Pro Football Hall of Fame Game in Canton on Sunday, August 9 at 8pm (NBC).
    The other Legacy games that the Bills will be a part of will be the Monday night opener in Foxboro against New England Sept. 14, the Week 10 matchup with the Titans at Tennessee on Nov. 15 is another, followed by Nov. 29th home game against Miami. The Dolphins are not an original AFL team, but joined the league in 1966.
    Buffalo will be wearing their throwback uniforms along with the white helmet with the standing red buffalo for all of those games this season.

    That's awesome since the throwbacks are my favorites right now, but what happens for the away games against NE and Tenn.? Will we still wear the blue jerseys on the road, or are they going to come out with an away throwback? Is it a rule that one team always has to wear white because I'm assuming the Pats would wear their old red jerseys and the Titans will wear the old baby blue unis of the Oilers. I've never seen a game where two teams both wear their colors, but I've never seen a white Bills throwback either.

        I am a history lover, but I know I am in the minority when I say I cannot stand those throwbacks. To me, that buffalo looks like a sitting duck, possibly target practice for a hunter and that blue looks God awful. My favorite is actually the helmet with the 'modern' buffalo and the white background.
        I came.
        I saw.
        I conquered.

          So they'll be worn in THREE games. Who cares about HOF preseason game. It is meaningless.

            That Blue is awesome. I hate the Navy blue we have now. We have the worst uniforms in the NFL along with KC, Miami and Denver.

              I don't mind the navy blue, and I agree with you on the Miami uniform and probably KC. But Denver, really? I'd say the worst in the league are Miami, KC and Seattle.

                I liked the old Miami uniforms, but I don't like how they have tweaked them in recent years.

                The Bills uniforms are definitely on the crappier side. Especially the away ones. They are putrid.

                Worst uniforms (in my opinion): San Francisco, Tennessee (when they have powder blue on navy blue), Baltimore (never liked them), Cincinnati (way too gaudy).

                Best: New York Giants, San Diego, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia.

                    What is our record when wearing the throwbacks? I only remember us winning 2 games......Texans, Dolphins and Raiders games. What are we like 3-5 with them? We do suck with our regular jerseys too, so I guess it doesn't matter!

                      we need the throwback team from the 90s.

                          I wonder if we can still wear them the 2 games teams are allowed to wear their throwbacks.

                              Great. One home game.
                              Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?
