Would you compromise with a throwback uniform that was infused with intense color for Color Rush? Like the below uniform but a bright orange jersey instead of white or black?
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

Yeah, i have no problem with those colors.
But the pirate with the knife in his mouth was kind of creepy. He was just a little too hot looking, and why the hell was he winking?

Sorry, but out original uniforms are lame. A few years ago I actually found a site that claimed they could make a custom Bengals throwback jersey for me. I was all ready to order ti when i realized that no one would even know it was a Bengals Jersey. It looked like a cheap, generic high school jersey. Or even an old Browns jersey.

Ran into that problem at the 2011 Seattle game.

Oh I would agree. My personal favorite was the 90's through early 2000's jerseys with the tiger on the sleeves.
Although I bet many people's favorites are this:
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season

i do believe this is the first official uniform thread on the new board so everybody celebrate.
Also, isn't the "B" a throwback to "B E N G A L S" on the old helmets?
I believe it is.
Still not a fan though because the leaping and growling tigers were way cooler.

Ok, I gotta admit those Memphis uni's were pretty slick. I'd definitely like those more than "color rush".

Seattle fans don't even know football existed before 2005.

It seems fitting... All Thursday night games are bad. They may as well look like shit while they play like shit.

They've gone 2-6 in prime time games the past two seasons. 2-8 if you include playoffs. 1-1 on Thursday night, which they also lost by 3 TDs.

What does this have to do with my comment?
If we won by 21 points in our last Thursday night game that means we don't play like shit every Thursday night. That means Jason was wrong.
Get it now?

Yep. Why does the NFL need a gimmick like that? Why not just do throwbacks on Thursday?

I'm reserving my hate until I can see it for myself. Honestly, though, a solid orange jersey sounds cool. Anything to get rid of that stupid white piping in the side of our current jerseys. Yuck.

I think the juvenile school yard moniker for the Buccaneers answers all of your questions about that logo.

How can so many of you be so negative before you even see them?
I am hoping the entire uniform is orange with black stripes like the helmets.
for once im one million percent agreed.
I think that would look pretty sweet. All orange with bengal stripes. Might actually look like a tiger.

The color rush Helmets dont change since the NFL doesnt want to keep giving players different helmets. concussion BS
Only the uniform will change.
All white
All Orange
All Black. -----------but color rush makes me think black is a no go. its NIKE doing this.
i would love us to have all orange. Bengals orange is awesome.

I do feel like the NFL is trying to do all it can to ruin it's own product and piss off it's fanbase. A game of "how much will you take before you stop giving us all your money?"
Not only do the Bengals have to wear (most likely) awful color rush crap, they also are playing a "home" game in London. This is taking a decidedly sharp turn for the worse.
