I happen to love the Renters' new uniforms. Unfortunately, they executed their update far better than the Rams. It will result in less money in Stan's pocket, but unless the Chargers somehow turn into a Patriots / 80's 49ers dynasty over the next 5 years, they will settle into their redheaded stepchild role in LA. In other words, it is a small skirmish victory and the Rams will win the war for LA.
I still wish we had just kept our classic unis and updated the colors (which they got right imo). You might not love the bright new colors, but that alone could have been the "update for the new generation" they were seeking.
I think they’ll change soon. They changed away from them for a reason, as a novelty they’re great, but as an every day uniform I think people will eventually grow bored of them. You know why McDonalds only does the McRib sandwich for limited times? That’s because they know if it became a full time meal, the excitement around them would die down. I bet the same thing happens with the Chargers, especially when they’re stumbling around doing Charger things, getting spanked by Mahomes twice a year.
What a treat for Rams fans, by the way, we can watch Mahomes in his prime spank our tenants in person.
Also the Chargers helmets really don’t do it for me. The more I look at them the less I’m into them. Especially compared to how great our helmets look with our uniforms. Their issue is their design as well, a color change I don’t know if that fixes it, but maybe. If the NFL relaxes their helmet rules, we can have bone helmet with blue horns, yellow helmet with blue horns, etc... Chargers, I don’t know. Maybe it’s just me, I feel like they’re limited.
Ours were specifically designed to pop and look good on TV and in SoFi stadium. Theirs were designed 60 years ago. Watch them be dull in comparison with everything else going on in the stadium.
