Visiting team will wear their Home jersey for TNF

[JMC00]

President and CEO of the Packers Mark Murphy said the NFL Thursday night football games will feature "color on color".

Eww

I'm color blind, should I sue the NFL?

Eagles vs. Jets, Cowboys vs. Giants, Steelers vs. Raiders, Falcons vs. Cardinals, Patriots vs. Texans, etc. Let's see some real anarchy on the field.

This just scream that the nfl had focus groups and a bunch of women said how they don't like how one team wears white.

New York liberals in the Jets I mean NFL front office just don't like whites.

one team wearing white is racist

Colts/Texans could get weird.

I don't think it necessarily means their home jersey. It might have the be an alternate 3rd jersey some nights. Otherwise Baltimore at Pittsburgh will be VERY interesting.

Yep. How is this good for the product on the field? I can imagine circumstances where QBs or defenders can't make reads as easily as they should. Wonderful.

I'd take the approach that someone should wear white except for specific, pre-approved circumstances where both teams wearing their 'colors' don't clash. Like, if the 49ers play the Packers, for example, then clearly there's no conflict there. or Patriots vs. Dolphins, etc. But in a lot of cases, you have two teams whose color schemes are such that it's just more trouble than it's worth to create a uniform that doesn't make problems. Steelers/Packers, for example. At best, you have QBs making reads trying to distinguish between black and dark-ish green. Or you go with the Steelers' bumblebee uniforms, which are just the worst thing ever.

Can someone explain to me the problem of one team wearing white?(excluding the obvious hot weather games)
