Does anyone have any word about throwback jerseys for the 2012 season?? It would be especially great to play with them on Thanksgiving against the Jets in their throwback uniforms. Also it would be cool to see them used in another game or two!

Anyone agree? Disagree?
 
We'll probably find out closer to the season. I like seeing them in red once a year as well.

they won't wear the red throwbacks on thanksgiving since it's a road game. i haven't seen them wear the white throwbacks since 2009 season when they played the broncos .

They wore red throwbacks @Detroit on Thanksgiving

The white throwbacks are really boring. The Jets throwbacks as the Titans of New York are disgusting.

Not necessarily accurate. In the NFL the home team for every game has the choice of whether they want to wear white or the dark colors. If the Jets opt to wear white then the Pats can wear red.
 
It's a good thing we don't play the Steelers in their throwbacks this year because we would probably be laughing too hard to play football.
 
Would any one else like to see the mid-90s throwbacks? I sure would. It would be a nice change.

true, but since when do the jets wear white at home? plus the jets aren't going to do the pats any favors.

They should wear their early 1990's, silk white shirt/ blood red pant motif, with spackles of tope. It would be absolutely fabulous if they incorporated a subtle baby blue tint in their shirts, to really highlight Tommy's steely blue eyes.

I love uniform talk.

There could always be a unique exception if everyone agrees. As another poster mentioned, the Pats wore red against Detroit on Thanksgiving. Well Detroit wasn't wearing their whites that game, it was blue versus red. So green versus red is not entirely out of the question.

I really do not know if the Jets have ever worn white at home. One would think that in all the years they have been in existence, over 50 years, that there must have been some occasions when they wore white.+

But, in either case, the only way the Pats will get to wear Red for that game is if the Jets opt to wear white.

Are you sure about that. I really can not remember, but if that happened, it would have been very unusual.

EDIT: I retract my prior comment. You are correct. Here is video from that game.

Check out the fantastic TD run by BJGE at the 21 second mark. He literally pile drives a defender into the ened zone.

Who comes into Gillette who you would want to see in a throwback?

Divisional teams? Been there, done that it seems.

Denver? Same, though it was a road game.

Arizona? Their unis haven't really changed, have they?

49ers? Not terribly different but their mid 90's with the black shadow #'s were nice.

Colts? Their unis have never really changed.

Texans? Um, no change ever.


Then again, who says that the opponent has to wear their throwback that game?


Some road situations would be cool.

At Tennessee in the old Oiler uniforms could be fun though I think that was done in 2009 on a snowy field in Foxboro...in October.

At Seattle in their old AFC-Days uniforms might be a good change.

The game in London provides an interesting opportunity. Old Rams uniforms vs Pat the Patriot in red...in London...kind of funny, historical twist.

At Jacksonville in the mid 90's uniforms to commemorate the 1996 AFC title game. I'm SURE Jacksonville would love that
 
i think the only chance to see them in Red next year is on Thanksgiving where both the jets and patriots wear their dark jerseys. As the other poster mentioned (and i forgot) that the pats and lions did it a few years ago in Detroit on Thanksgiving.
 
They've all been burned and dumped in a landfill off 495.
 
I would like to see the mid 90s blue with the red lettering.

This uni is so misunderstood, especially by that moron Adam Rank who called these the ugliest unis of all time. I actually like the royal blue on these over the current navy blue.

Uh jets wear white at home vs the pats almost every year, even last year they did.

Are those the ones with the "hidden" stripes in them. I couldnt stand them and the logo on the shoulder was way too big.

These??


Or these??



Of course, if they wanted to go way back, to year one, 1960...how about these
