        Chiefs do look pretty good too. I like simple designs on jerseys for some reason.

            A little lighter but kinda resemble the 49ers colors.

              Is there any change in the Raiders at all?

                The lettering and numbering on today's jersey is a brighter silver. That's the only difference I can see in the pic given.

                Edit - If you click on each jersey it will give you the history of the uniform.




                A look at the AFL legacy uniforms: The 1963 Oakland Raiders

                By MJD

                Eight former AFL teams will wear 1960s throwback uniforms during "legacy games" in the 2009 season. Shutdown Corner takes a look back (or ahead, if you will) at those throwback jerseys in advance of the season. Today, we look at the 1963 Oakland Raiders.

                I think the NFL is pulling a little chicanery with this one. Here, the NFL touts the Raiders legacy uniforms as this:

                1963 season: White (away) jersey features silver numbers outlined in black; silver helmet with original Raiders logo.

                But Football Uniforms Past and Present depicts the Raiders uniforms as you see them above, with some mustard yellow in there. You can see it in the football card, too.

                But I don't think we'll be seeing any mustard on the field this year. Instead, it sounds like they'll be rocking the 1970 models with the 1963 helmet. And that's fine ... if you want to pick the more aesthetically pleasing uniform, knock yourself out, but I don't know why they'd lie about it.

                I have another suggestion to make the Raiders legacy day even more fun. See, 1963 was also the first year that Al Davis served as the head coach of the Raiders. Let's bring Al down to the sidelines ... head coach for the day!

                  I wasn't comparing myself to Wildcard. I honestly don't think I could compare myself to God.

                      BTW
                      Browns is an even dumber name now that I know its after a friggin boxer

                      Paul Brown IS inept
                      Dude was pulling your chain, I believe you had it right the first time.

                      The franchise was bought and the suggestion was made that the fans name the team. The Organization put out a newspaper article promising the winner a war bond. There was a huge calling by the fans to name the team the Browns after head coach Paul Brown. Brown was uncomfortable about the team being named after him and suggested the Panthers. That name was already taken by a semi-pro team in Ohio and as mentioned they sucked.

                      Not wanting to name the team after a losing team Paul Brown decided that the team could be named after him. However, in a interview Paul Brown said publicly that the name was derived from boxing legend Joe "Brown Bomber" Louis. Thus the myth began that the Brownies were named after Joe Louis.
