    White Throwbacks!

    Forked from: AFL Throwback Games...

    Fact #13 -As part of the NFL’s 75th Anniversary Celebration in 1994, each team wore a ‘throwbacks” uniform for at least one game. The Bills wore a uniform modeled after the team’s 1964-65 version. The most distinguishing features of the throwbacks uniforms included a white standing buffalo against the red helmet and red, white, and blue striped socks. The Bills wore these uniforms for two games - a 15-7 road win at Houston (white jerseys) on 9/19/94 and a 27-20 home victory over Denver (blue jerseys) on Monday night, 9/26/94.

    The Bills revealed in their training camp press release that on their night practice at training camp on July 30, they will lauch the official Bills jersey commemorating the 50th anniversary of the AFL. They already have a blue throwback for sale. They play a road game at Tennessee in which they will wear a throwback jersey. So expect them to be unveiling a white 1960s era jersey at that night practice at St. John Fisher.

    neato.
    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

      First and foremost, I love this and think the new white uni will be awesome.

      However, does a uni a playoff team make? I think not.

        why the hell doesnt the bills just switch to the throw backs permanently? the jerseys we have now are putrid. everyone loves the throw backs. its another way to create revenue. it all makes sense. why the hell not do it?

                      The current throwbacks are beautiful. Maybe the best uni's in the league. I can't wait to see the white ones.
                      Resign our own guys!

                        I have been waiting for the white throwbacks to come out since the blue ones came out. I am pretty excited about these, I hope they go on sale!

                          I love the current uni's compared to the 90's, I think the all blue is sweet. That said, I would kill for us to swith to the throwbacks premenatly.

                            I guess I'm in the minority. I love our current unis!! But then again, blue is my favorite color.
                            Let's Go Bills ... B B B B B B Bills!

                              The current blues are acceptable (that picture of Lynch above... blue on blue), but the current whites are awful. That blue block on the top is just pointless. I'd be OK with them if they just made the whole thing white and ditched the block. As for the helmets, either works for me. I know a standing Buffalo doesn't strike fear, but there's just something classic about that look.
