LOL. God damn liberals with their cancer awareness and salute to service.

You must not follow the teams social media accounts much. They recognize everything from Muslim heritage, Indigenous people month, to whatever sexual preference awareness anybody may have. None of which has anything to do with football, but oh no...that doesn't stop the Wilfs from fluffing the rest of the fanbase. Why do they not have a Christian recognition month? I think we all know the answer to that. Trust me though, the rainbow warrior uni's are coming soon, but I digress..

Lol. Seriously? Christianity is everywhere in the United States. It is recognized every month. Just like being straight. There is no fear of retaliation because you are Christian. It's about being inclusive and recognizing people that are not white and Christian. The United States consists of more than that.

The silver kind of blends in. The qb situation is up in the air right now. They have to play and see how it shakes out. It makes perfect sense not to have a qb in the uniform reveal

These seem fine. A little too K-Statey for my taste but again, I can't say I much care either way. They look harmless.

Not something I'd ever buy but if the players and team are into it, that's cool. Just beat the Bears!

Probably because they're Jewish.

Yes seriously, and I could easily argue your points, but in the interest of not hijacking the thread...I won't

And yet we're still quick to recognize Eid Mubarek on the teams social media accounts. Just wish they'd shut the fuck up and stick to football related topics. I know that's a lot to ask.

I really like the white helmets. December/January, prime time...white warriors. I like these a lot.

They’re wearing them on Monday Night Football, week 15 against da Bears, it may well be time to wave the white flag by then anyway…  :cool: :angel:

But..... if we have 9 or 10 wins going into that game then those unis will be fantastic!

These unis are dope. Love the all white. The only thing I wish is they made the horn metallic purple, but overall this a great alternate look to bust out once or twice a year.

I wish they would go back to the throwback unis that they wore in week one last year. That is the Vikings look for me.

I always thought white helmets make the players’ heads look like a bobble head ala the Cardinals helmets. Thumbs down for me, I am afraid…

I would still love to see the team go back to shiny purple helmets instead of the matte helmet currently used. Those throwback unis were awesome and I would love to see them return.

Hated the Color Rush stuff, but those whites are like Minnesota in January: so damn cold  :cool:

Honestly, the throwbacks are my least favorite. I like the different color schemes that get tried sporadically and as mentioned, partial to the solids. I don't view any part of the Vikings uniform 'sacred', especially for these one-off types changes.

I'm fifty-fifty on them. I appreciate trying something different, but I also don't think we've had a white on white uniform that looked good since Jake Reed was on the roster. I prefer this over our current white on white, but its better when they wear purple.
