the    sides

This is getting ridiculous but I figured I was here at the edge anyway, I might as well jump off.

Best Uni Conference: NFC

This shouldn’t be a huge surprise. The traditional uniforms and the solid performance from the NFC South and NFC East swings this solidly towards the NFC. Having both Cleveland and Cincinatti in the same conference (same DIVISION!) killed the AFC’s chances.

As a side note - the Pro Bowl uniforms are utterly ridiculous. It’s like some elementary ed teacher got loose with the star stickers and stencils. I mean, how much medication do you have to be on in order to tolerate those unis?

I don’t know what the solution is for that game, but having the AFC wear their respective home dark unis and the NFC their respective team away unis would be a start.

Best Uni Division: AFC West

It’s close with the NFC South, but what sinks the NFC South is Carolina.

Worst Uni Division: NFC East

From top to bottom, this is by far the worse uni conference. While the AFC Central does have Cleveland AND Cincinatti, it is also redeemed by Pittsburgh and Baltimore.

Most Improved Uniform: (tie) Tampa Bay Bucs, Atlanta Falcons
The originals/throwbacks of these teams were atrocious. The new digs are off the hizzle.

Worse Change In Uniform: The Bungals
“B-E-N-G-A-L-S” across the helmet was terrible. The stripes are worse. I think the uniform change was the real reason they have sucked pond water so bad for so long.
