Throwing it back to the Marcus Jones Game

20

u/robshot295 #EdelmanforCanton 1d ago

Little did we know how clutch Jones would become after that first return touchdown

-9

u/StatementWild3768 1d ago

Clutch? How so?Ā 

8

u/Stelly414 1d ago

I find him to be very solid as a defender and well above average as a punt returner.

-9

u/StatementWild3768 1d ago

You are right about him being a good defender and punt returner, but OP was being a little disingenuous by calling him "clutch", one of the least talked about reasons why the Pats lost the Lunatic Lateral game is because Marcus was unclutch at the end. Obviously he wasn't the main reason but he still contributed.

5

u/Stelly414 1d ago

That's just one game though. He's definitely made some clutch plays in a handful of games and makes solid contributions on a weekly basis. I don't believe labeling him clutch is disingenuous but that's just me. Have a great day and enjoy the game on Sunday!

Peak Pats dead ball era.

u/Kennypatts02 1d ago

Why does the team still pretend this is a good combo? Would love to never see this set again

13

u/Tomotronics 1d ago

I like it šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø It’s subjective.

13

u/Double-Ad-7483 1d ago

Unicolor unis are awful as a general rule

6

u/Kennypatts02 1d ago

I think they can work with certain color combos, primary navy and secondary red is not one of them

1

u/Double-Ad-7483 1d ago

I will agree that some are less bad than others and I'll leave it at that :)

1

u/john7071 My kind of Guy 1d ago

The Saints all-black unis are gorgeous, to be fair.

20

u/midnight-architect7 1d ago

Meh. Wish we’d just do silver pants permanently with blue jerseys. Also curious what the white pants would look like with blue jerseys.

0

u/Food_Library333 1d ago

They'd probably look really good but maybe too close to the Bill's uniforms.

7

u/midnight-architect7 1d ago

How would dark navy look anything like royal blue…?

7

u/tb12_legit 1d ago

Yeah this sub is colour blind and think all jerseys look the same lol.

14

u/leaveONscene 1d ago

Some of the most uninspired unis in the league.

40

u/ScoutTheStankDog 1d ago

Am I the only one that likes this? I genuinely dont get the hate

3

u/StrudelB 1d ago

The blue on blue is nice when they're not the primary combo, I like to see them break it out for a game or two but when I think Patriots I think of the blue on silver.

7

u/Dopeybear71 1d ago

I like thesešŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļøā€¦ people have certain tastes and that’s okay. Win that’s all that matters.

7

u/Historical-Donut-918 1d ago

I like them too! But we are the only two that like them. It is actually insane to me how much people care in general, but even more surprising how much hatred a clean looking uniform can inspire from "fans".

5

u/TXRhody 1d ago

I like them too.

4

u/potatopancake13 1d ago

I like them three

1

u/Pitiful_Lavishness24 9h ago

Tepidly raising my hand in solidarity. My son likes them too!

-4

u/ExcitableAutist42069 1d ago

Lmfao bro no chance you seriously believe only two people in the entire fan base like these šŸ’€ also putting fans in quotations is wild just because some people don’t like them. You’re legitimately weird.

6

u/generalhonks 1d ago

It’s an exaggeration big dawg

1

u/DefNotAShark 23h ago

Tbh I’m tired of people exaggerating things just so people will pay attention to whatever mundane thing they’re saying. All that yapping just to say ā€œI also like thisā€.

It’s actually insane to me 🤪 so much hatred

5

u/Adventurous-Car81910 1d ago

Welp username checks outĀ 

4

u/Reasonable_Ad1128 1d ago

I like them too!

2

u/flyovertwice 1d ago

I don’t mind them at all. I do hate the 90’s retro uniforms that so many people seem to love though. I guess that’s why they have chocolate and vanilla.

1

u/iantayls 1d ago

I like these jerseys. I also wish they'd bring that 90s fit back for a throwback soon

1

u/SaltyJake 1d ago

I like them, they look even better with the white helmet too. Always run this set up in Madden haha.

0

u/Dawsonab99 1d ago

Madden doesn’t let mismatching uniforms anymore :(

2

u/SaltyJake 1d ago

Whaaaaaat? Since when? You can do it in ā€˜25

u/ObiWanLamora 1d ago

Nah these kick ass. Not the best combo but they're still slick.

-1

u/Butch9x 1d ago

I like them too!

15

u/pumpkangs 1d ago

I actually forgot this was our main uniform

13

u/MrPlowThatsTheName 1d ago

I thought they said silver pants were the main home unis now šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø

2

u/pumpkangs 1d ago

It’s still this, we just wear silver more than we used to

2

u/Dawsonab99 1d ago

I don’t think so, I think they officially changed to silver pants this off season. That’s why we wear it more and the official 2026 photoshoot had them wearing silver pants.

u/swigganicks 1d ago

The generational divide in opinion on this combo is interesting.

I’m around a lot of high school and college kids, they prefer the blue on blue overwhelmingly compared to blue on silver. They also like the throwbacks though.

Older adults (30+) seem to mostly hate this combo in particular.

3

u/Over-Tackle5585 1d ago

I just can't imagine not immensely preferring the color combo we wore during such amazing times. I don't get it. But I guess college and high school kids were, at this point, anywhere from 6-14 years old during the last title, and even younger during the peak of the second dynasty.

2

u/BadReckee 1d ago

As a 30+ in college I fuck with the blue on blue

1

u/Sith_Lord_Nibbler 7h ago

Because people over 30 have taste and culture. Blue on blue is ugly as sin

3

u/LonelyPatsFanInVT 1d ago

Looking like a JetBlue commercial

20

u/Tupsbub 1d ago

Whyyyyyyy

I thought they said it was silver pants this Sunday. Those are SO much better

22

u/tdquiksilver 1d ago

Lame. Give us silver pants.

10

u/KaguPrez 1d ago

Was never a fan of this combination on release, glad to see it's soured on others as well lol (and maybe unpopular but also not a fan of the full white look either)

Not sure why we can't just do the blue and silver.

3

u/OnlineIsNotAPlace 1d ago

they look like a fucking high school team when they wear this shit

3

u/ELAdragon 1d ago

It looks like pajamas. I think that's why younger fans like it, cause they wear pajamas all the time.

1

u/OnlineIsNotAPlace 1d ago

or diapers from the responses they give.

3

u/StillYourFavorite331 Drake "Drake Maye" Maye 1d ago

Ew

13

u/OnlineIsNotAPlace 1d ago

worst uniform in patriots history

2

u/Tomotronics 1d ago

30 years from now people will be asking for these again, just like how people use to complain about the 90s uniforms and now people want them back lol

-4

u/OnlineIsNotAPlace 1d ago

just shows how lame you are.

4

u/DustyNintendo 1d ago

Ugh just rock the silver pants for both home and away for crying out loud.

-1

u/coloringpad 1d ago

Actually, I like the all blues. Nice, dark blue, clean looking. I mean, I'd put reds as No. 1, Nor'easter as No. 2, and these as 3. The silver on the helmet is all I ask.

I don't really like away jerseys anyway.

8

u/5am281 1d ago

Disgusting, worst unis we have

5

u/ZoxMcCloud 1d ago

Long past due for a uni refresh

5

u/ScrawneyAardvark 1d ago

We need Silver pants every game unless we are rocking the throwback Pat Patriot. Blue on blue and white on white aint it

1

u/DoubleZ3 1d ago

i much prefer white on white to blue on blue

i also like white on white better than white and gray

4

u/tiandrad 1d ago

Can these just become our regulars.

Or the throwbacks.

5

u/RammsteinFunstein 1d ago

the issue with these is just they're not Pats colors. But I do like them more now than when initially released, definitely grown on me.

But the throwbacks would be great.

2

u/SportVideoGameMusic Forever a Pats fan 1d ago

These uni’s are so weak. Can’t wait for the next decade so they can add some stripes down the side and bring back silver. Even color at the collar was fire. Weak ass ā€œnfl color rushā€ type uni’s.

2

u/Wheatabix11 1d ago

not a fan, well I am a fan, just not a fan

2

u/Novel_Dog_676 1d ago

Terrible

Some of the ugliest uni's in the league...look like pajamas smh

Bring back these

u/Patsx5sb 1d ago

O I’d love the Royal Blues

2

u/Tomotronics 1d ago

Pretty funny that everything being said about this Sunday’s uniform was said about those uniforms back in the day, and now people wish for them lol

2

u/Patsx5sb 1d ago

Part of it is nostalgia

1

u/Double-Ad-7483 1d ago

These are legit the only uni I dislike more than the blueberry unicolor one

1

u/BradyToMoss1281 1d ago

Booooo!

(I know they’re 90s as hell, but I love them so)

1

u/Double-Ad-7483 1d ago

I was one of the sickos who actually liked the reds back in the day and didn't like the shift to blue. Of course these days everyone loves the old reds!

u/jackattack502 1d ago

This without Elvis.

u/TGans 1d ago

u/lat3ralus65 1d ago

Why do you want to make it worse?

Not the goddamn blueberry uniform 😭

u/thebagisgoyard 1d ago

The worst look we have by a long shot.

…Sorry guys…

u/TGans 1d ago

Awful look.

3

u/DPadres69 1d ago

Yikes, that’s sucky

3

u/SBrownellAnthony 1d ago

I’m not wild about the Blue on blue.

3

u/BradyToMoss1281 1d ago

Why do they wear these? They're universally panned. It's the same top, so it's not like they're trying to create demand for a different jersey. Is it as simple as Robert or Jonathan really likes the look?

1

u/OnlineIsNotAPlace 1d ago

or the art douche thinks its stylish. as if an nfl team needs an art department.

3

u/thekraken108 1d ago

Just wear white pants and you're good.

u/dei1c3 1d ago

Yuck

2

u/sodabubbles1281 1d ago

Sorry but I love it. It’s giving color drench ✨

3

u/MetalHead_Literally 1d ago

The uniform itself is ugly enough, no need to make it even worse.

2

u/pumpkangs 1d ago

What made it worse?

3

u/MetalHead_Literally 1d ago

The blue pants

1

u/pumpkangs 1d ago

We’ve had those pants with this uniform for years

7

u/Louieismydog42 1d ago

And theyve been ugly for years

2

u/MetalHead_Literally 1d ago edited 1d ago

Ok and? They’re ugly as fuck and make the ugly blue jerseys somehow even worse.

Lol he blocked me for that? Sheesh. And sent me a ā€œReddit caresā€ thing. How pathetic

2

u/pumpkangs 1d ago

Ok so they didn’t make it worse because it’s always been like that. Take the L

3

u/Double-Ad-7483 1d ago

always

That word doesn't mean what you think it means. Take the L.

u/GlitteringBirthday61 1d ago

Why? Literally nobody asked for this, nobody will ever ask for this. Keep the color rush in the garbage bin

2

u/Xtremefluff 1d ago

they chose the worst model lol

2

u/AliceP00per 1d ago

Why do they insist on this combination

1

u/10milerivergreenway 1d ago

These are the worst combo of the worst uniforms. Need to switch to the rivalries unis full time.

3

u/OnlineIsNotAPlace 1d ago

now that would be dumb. they should wear the silver pants with blue tops at home and the throwbacks at home against original afl teams. fuck this lame made up rivalries nike shit.

It’s amazing how the color of the pants determines whether the uniform looks good or looks like Smurf poo.

Oh god.. luckily it’s the Jets or else I’d have Mac Jones PTSD.

We're the blue man group!

1

u/Arthur3335 1d ago

The greatest thing Brady did. His greatest accomplishment was to entirely change the Culture of the Retro red unis. My god there were the worst times wearing those pre 1992

1

u/Rich_Percentage_8505 1d ago

Oh we’re going to be ass.

1

u/3lm312 1d ago

The socks should of been red or grey

1

u/theletterfortyseven 1d ago

Fuck the jets

u/TLyons-4 1d ago

Would’ve been nice to see the Pats in their throwbacks against the Jets in their current throwback-inspired uniforms.

u/MK0FTEN 23h ago

I’m just curious why they changed it from silver pants the other day.

1

u/Sith_Lord_Nibbler 7h ago

I HATE THIS SET.

1

u/eddienashton38 5h ago

I actual like this combo. Still think they should bring back the 2010s unis, the continuation of the color rush jerseys as our main ones is kinda ass

2

u/EAsucks4324 1d ago

If nothing else, just changing to white or red socks would make it way more bearable.

1

u/MrPlowThatsTheName 1d ago

The absolute worst

1

u/WeightOwn5817 1d ago

Worst unis in pro sports. Hideous.

1

u/archangel924 1d ago

....please tell me this is some kind of.... sick.... tasteless joke? Why not wear the Storm Blue jersey that are way way cooler? Or the dynasty-era blue jerseys with silver pants..... why why why would they go with the loser-era blueberry jersey?

Would have preferred the blue and silver ! 😩

Bring back 90s if you’re going to get silly w blue. Either way pats by a million!

-3

u/Gotsta_Win 1d ago

The 180 on this uniform is funny. People loved it when it was the color rush alternate in 2016

5

u/Markymarcouscous 1d ago

I think it’s because it was a nice change up. It was good once a year.

1

u/Gotsta_Win 1d ago

Yea maybe. I don’t hate them, I’m also not a huge fan. But they aren’t the jerseys for no reason, the fan base asked for this at a point

2

u/MrPlowThatsTheName 1d ago

The fan base also asked for Zappe to be the full time starter.

5

u/AJKenney47 1d ago

I mean, maybe others have? Many of us have been consistent. Same color jersey pants and socks looks terrible. I said so back in 2002 when they first tried it.

3

u/Gotsta_Win 1d ago

That’s cool but This uniform was a consensus fan favorite when it debuted which is why it was brought back repeatedly as an alternate, and eventually the permanent jerseys

2

u/mullethunter111 1d ago

They were excited for the gimmick of color rush, which was used to promote TNF and generate additional revinue for Nike. All color rush uniforms were objectively terrible- Nike’s JV team.

1

u/MrPlowThatsTheName 1d ago

That was then. This is now. Times and tastes change.

1

u/MrPlowThatsTheName 1d ago

Monochrome uniforms are always terrible unless the color is white.

I think all blacks can work as a one off as well

Disagree. Look at the Ravens when they wear all black 🤮

u/Double-Ad-7483 1d ago

People loved it when it was the color rush alternate in 2016

I never loved the color rush unis for any team. In fact, I hated them, and still do.

1

u/danman296 1d ago

People liked it because of the new-at-the-time navy red stripe jersey, now our home. Great jersey but the blue on blue is horrific looking and now emblematic of the 2020-2024 black hole.

The new jerseys with the silver pants look great and IMO are a great, cohesive blend of every era of Pats football.

u/StatementWild3768 1d ago

It's okay to play in these once or twice a year, it just sucked when they were the regular.

u/JuanG_13 1d ago

I personally like blue on blue (it's a new era and a new look, the only thing I'd do different is go with red red socks instead of blue).

-5

u/the_silent_one1984 1d ago

At first I wasn't sure if I was going to watch the game. I mean, sure, it's a divisional game, and the Jets are always a barrel of laughs.

But now, with this uniform reveal? SOLD! They really got me! And I'm going to have myself a nice BLT with loads of Hellmann's mayo!
