For The Love of God, and Football I Hope The Bills Bring Back The Red End Zones

[BillsImpossible]

This...



or that...



Which visual, "pops," more?

Bring back the red zones Buffalo!

All you need is...paint.

Is this a, "no brainer?"

It's time to get back on it, Bills fans.

We can either get with this...



or that....



What looks like more fun?

Didn't the red end zones fade to pink?? That's my recollection , quite fetching

[Generalissimus Gibby]

Isn't this thread a bit outdated? I mean aren't the endzones blue now?

Yeh, and they're still the same.

Blue end zones with green grass....

Why not got back to what worked and looks better?

Bud Light or Pepsi?

I wish it was October. My favorite month of the year. Football is in full swing, and the toughest sports athletes in America are all wearing pink.

Huh?

Why did the Bills end zones turn pink?

Because the Bills used to score a lot of touchdowns and wore out the paint.

Thurman Thomas alone turned both of those end zones pink with all of the red paint on his cleats.

Analytics is a big thing now in the NFL. I wonder if anyone has taken the time to calculate the difference between teams with, "bright," end zone colors vs. teams with end zones that basically blend in with the rest of the field.

Is their an advantage to having a bright red colored end zone?

NFL coaches look for any advantage they can get over their opponents.

If the numbers say that teams with, "bright colored," end zones score more touchdowns than teams with end zones few people notice, what would you do?

Chip Kelly coached a very colorful collegiate team in Oregon. His team set a new trend for uniform colors that popped. Will he paint the Philadelphia end zones bright green?

Gotta admit, I miss them too...they remind me of when we had professional football in Buffalo.

Do you drink a negative cup of tea every day like that dude above?

Come on bro...

The Bills haven't made the playoffs in 14 years, but don't go off the deep end brother.

We're going to turn this thing around and spin it like a dreidel.

Oy vey!

Neil Diamond, baby.

One of the all time greatest tailgate songs ever.

The blue end zones are fine.

There have been studies that showed teams in red uniforms had a marginal advantage.

Just from a Bills player uniform perspective a red end zone would help a player stand out.

I mean it really doesn't help the QB when your teams jersey matches the field in my opinion.

Do people actually get paid to conduct such studies?

Anyway, I never thought to think about it before, but those red endzones are far superior than any other color. The OP makes a point.

Sports psychology is a huge field. One study was even done by the university of Rochester.

Not only does OP make a good point about the looks, it actually might help the teams red zone performance in my opinion.

[Syderick]

Let's ask the Bills opponents which one they like better.

Bud Light or Pepsi?

There ya go! The AHL hockey Bisons and the Pastor Bros.

That's my recollection , quite fetching

"Stop trying to make fetch happen."

Sorry. I'm kind of obsessed with Rachel McAdams.

I just like the red end zones because they remind me of better times.

For some reason, whenever I think of them, I think of Andre sliding in the middle of the end zone for a TD in the Comeback Game (bows head in reverence).
