Atlanta throwback black helmet / red jersey tweaks

Inspired by some comments at Uni Watch, here are some Atlanta throwback tweaks with a classic black helmet and red jersey, a combo they never wore until the current set in 2004.

More Thanksgiving Tweaks

Okay so I now I took the Royal Blue Cowboys treatment and paired it with the white version of the Redskins throwback...

...but what if the Cowboys went 'White At Home' with the throwbacks like they do with their regular jerseys?

..or that against the Redskins' regular jersey...

...and a couple more Washington-Dallas Thanksgiving tweaks just for the fun of it:

Cowboys Royal Blue Thanksgiving

Somebody on the Twitter thought the Cowboys Thanksgiving throwbacks would "be beautiful" in a royal blue.  I don't know if I got the shade exactly right, but here's one interpretation:

Washington Redskins road throwbacks

Although had the Redskins been permitted to wear their throwbacks against the Steelers' throwbacks, there might have been a potential clash issue.  I asked Bill to whip up a 'road' version of a Redskins' throwback:

And although color-vs-color has been permitted in Thanksgiving games before (New England vs. Detroit, for example), a white throwback could have also been worn against Dallas on Turkey Day.

Got any ideas for any other GUD tweaks?  Send them our way.

San Diego yellow tweaks

Made up a series of Chargers' tweaks based on a comment in Uni Watch today from Ben Fortney:

Teal 1996 Philadelphia Eagles

We recently made a change to the database on the 1985-95 Eagles, the person who emailed us about the change referred to the color change in 1996 as going from "Kelly Green" to "Teal" rather than "Midnight Green".  I don't know if our correspondent was color blind or just misinformed, but I wondered how the 1996 Eagles would have looked in teal instead of the dark midnight green.

Indianapolis Colts concept

Along with the Chiefs concept, Bill also threw together a Colts' blue panted combo, reminiscent of what they wore in 1995.

Kansas City Chiefs concepts

With the Panthers whipping out some unexpected black pants, Bill Schaefer tried out a couple Chiefs looks in mono-red, with encouragement from our Tim Brulia.  See one with red socks, the other with white.

Thanksgiving Preview

Based on some discussions in the UniWatch comments, Rob created a couple Thanksgiving what-ifs, if the Redskins go with white-over-yellow against the Cowboys throwbacks on Thanksgiving Day, and a "too bad the league won't let the Redskins wear their throwbacks" concept.  It turned out the Redskins did wear white/yellow, so that concept came true.

Too bad the league also wouldn't have let the Redskins wear the throwbacks at Pittsburgh when they wore their bumblebees.

1971 Dolphins & Cowboys

Rob Holecko created these based on the drawings by Brinke in Uni Watch today.

Bill Tweaks The Lions

Bill came up with this tweak to the Detroit Lions around Thanksgiving 2011 to see how they would look if they used the same shade of blue in their uniforms as they do on their field logos.

Rob Tweaks The Titans

After a discussion in the Uni Watch comments, Rob offered this yellowed version of the Tennessee Titans:
