BAH! unless there are blue pants coming, i don't like this. i also don't like messing with working mojo.

If i am not overly pessimistic about this seemingly trivial piece of news, the bills will lose. if i make a gigantic deal about it, it will neutralize itself. please bear with me and my fixes to the football universe.

thanks.

why would they do this? I'm not a fan of it. I like the blues. I thought we would be seeing blues three weeks in a row with road games at Dallas and Miami on the horizon as well. Our two losses also game wearing the whites. Doesn't make sense. Sales must be down in the whites so Russ wants to get those bumped up.

My guess is that they will be handing out white towels or t-shirts and get a white out going. I have no problem with this.

Cool, our players will stand out better when they're standing in the Jets end zone.

Except it's actually supposed to be 60. Maybe in NYC it will be 70.

I like the whites better, so I'm good with it.

It'd be amazing if everyone, within reason, could coordinate this whiteout.

It's supposed to be 56 at both stadiums according to weather.com

The white jerseys look pretty sharp, think I might have to get a Dareus.

Did they ever release the reason for this? Like I said before, it's got to be for marketing reasons, but I wondered how Brandon sold it in a statement. I haven't seen much on it since the annoucement.

The official line is since there are no throwback games this year it's an opportunity for fans to see the white jerseys.

It's definitely for money reasons, IMO. They want to show the white jerseys in person and convince more fans to want to buy the whites.

Nope. They're only wearing them once this year, and that was against JAX.

I like the whites on the road but I LOVE the blues myself. I don't like wearing white at home.

I like the whites on the road but I LOVE the blues myself. I don't like wearing white at home. I was at the first game that Jim Kelly played for the Bills (at Rich Stadium). We wore white. It was against the Jets. We lost.

STILL...I want us to kick their arses. GO BILLS!!!!!!!

Well, if I can't enjoy the uniform they are wearing, at least I can enjoy a win.

GO BILLS!!!!!!!
