2012 Nike NFL Combat unis

Their current look is much better. IMO, it's got a touch of class and an old school look that signifies "smash mouth" football. Other than the pants, the rest of this look equal Epic Fail to me.

No more Reebok?

Nope. Nike got the onfield, sideline, and fan apparel contract starting with the 2012 season. The NFL "season" starts in April by the way.

People are speculating that since Adidas bought Reebok, they are trying to lower the Reebok profile so they did not put in a competitive bid to keep the contract.

I don't care for these uniforms, but I am interested to see how Nike does the normal uniforms. I have some Steeler Reebok ones now, but it will soon be time to buy the Nike versions. So yeah this worked for the NFL and Nike. I'll be dropping a few hundred bucks on jerseys soon enough.

I hope to God they never go with anything that has Bucco Bruce that blatantly obvious on their uniforms ever again. Likewise with the gaudy orange they used to have. This uniform IMO is much worse than the old throwback ones they wear now. Epic Fail.

What? Bucco is sick (cool inlay?), maybe not great for this uniform though a little big, and the creamiscle is just classic for Bucs, when I see creamisicle I think Bucs and I like that.

We look like the Cardinals not the Bucs with this uniform though, wrong color fail.

I like the new logo on the helmet they have much better. I can handle Bruce on the uniform somewhere like you see on the design, though I do think it could be a tad smaller. I'm not saying do completely away with the creamsicle orange. Just subdue it a bit more. I do not wish to be reminded of "classic Buc" football. It was absolutely pathetic. Fortunately, I'm a more of a Jets fan than a Bucs one and any new look they get will be better than what the Bucs had or will get if it resembles this design.

Now, if I had to absolutely choose between the old orange and white or this new design I would go with the old look instead, because this one is much uglier.
