That sucks. I actually liked ours. Prefer them over the orange and white pants look.
They were pretty spiffy. Damn it. Why does everything I love go away?

Weren't our color rush jerseys just Oakland Raiders away jerseys?

Personally, I liked most of the color rush uniforms. I wasn't a fan of the mustard colored ones that the Jags and Rams used though.

I liked most of the designs, but hated the gimmick (and the helmet rule BS). I'll miss our all-white look, but for the most part i'm glad this marketing ploy is gone.

Ehh, it was mostly dumb enough to be amusing.

They said that the color rush uniforms won't be used on Thursday Night Football anymore. They didn't say they were going away entirely.

I think the color rush should become our standard white on white combination. Sleekest of all Bengal uniforms in my book.

Black on black is the best imo. The color rush is slick, and I really hope that they use the option to use it.

Agreed. The jerseys themselves were sick. if the helmets matched, I think they would be one of the best color rush jerseys in the NFL.
Until then, I def prefer the orange jersey with the white, even the black pants. always loved those jerseys.

Im pretty ready for a new uniform overhaul. I feel like it hasn't been done since 2005.
I cant stand out current uniforms, just way to busy.
Go back to something more minimalist.

It's probably just me, but our 'color rush' uniforms reminded me more of a Xerox copy of a plain black and white uniform. Personally I really don't care what they wear as long as they win. Whoever came up with the very term 'color rush' probably ought to be taken out and beaten daily and twice every Sunday, but I'm fairly non-violent so I'm ok with at least letting them live long enough to see the error of their ways...

I figure we won't see new uniforms until Katie and Troy take over the team completely.
Everything in this post is my fault.

The color rush with a white and black striped helmet would be awesome. I suspect they didn't do it because of our QB's being used to finding their receivers by looking for orange and black helmets, or maybe the league would not let you change the helmet. My favorite besides the color rush is probably the least liked... the black pants with the white jersey.
