    Shurmer says that he's contemplating wearing the brown unis for 4 home games and white ones for the other four--AND THE OTHER 8 AWAY GAMES.

    WTF does this organization have against looking badass in the Brown uniforms?

    Of course, it all has to be approved by Fatman.

    For what it's worth, I always thought Cleveland looked tougher in the away uniforms. It's a classic look.

  • imo the brown jerseys would look better if they were so dark they were almost black but still brown.

    That is exactly what they are, at least to my view.

  • I think the stupid thing in all of this is 1. Holmgren had no idea that the fan base mostly hated the all white or white at home look until a few weeks ago when he did a conference call with season ticket holders and a fan asked him if they would finally where Browns this year and all the other people mentioned how much they didn't like it. I don't know how you live in Cleveland and run the team and you have no idea how much fans have hated this since it started at the beginning of the season. and 2. Even though Holmgren is now aware of how much fans hate the white at home look he is only going to have the team wearing Brown for 4 home games and white for the rest. "Oh you really don't like this, well lets go half and half and revisit the issue at the end of the season. Just let the BROWNS where their BROWN jerseys. It's not fucking rocket science.

    I agree. If we went back to the original Brown, which is close to the color on this site, I would like it more.

  • I dig the all white unis but I like the brown ones as well. As long as orange pants aren't involved I'm good.

    Bring back the orange pants! I just like variety, change it up every now and then...

    that's why I say we should be like other "normal" teams and wear our fan favorite Brown colored jerseys at home--since we will be wearing the white for the 8 games we play away.

    Doesn't it just make sense?

    I don't know about fan favorite. I hate the Brown uni's.

    I don't hate the brown unis...I just prefer the all white.

    Well, ok....that is a better way to put it. 😉

    I don't hate them. I just don't like to see us wear them. I go back to when we were good and always wore white nearly every week, and when we didn't, we seemed to lose.

    I will say I didn't mind the orange pants, and to go out on a limb, the orange jersey's made some sense. If we were to go with a new look, go orange.

    I like the orange unis but only as an alternate once a year. It would be a little too much every home game.

  • I didn't like the orange pants at all. I'd be ok I suppose with an orange jersey every so often (once a year at most) but I do prefer the all white look.

  • I want the orange jerseys. Just bought an authentic, embroidered and stitched orange Hillis jersey for 20 dollars and I'm loving it.

    I'm done buying jerseys for current players.

    Bought a Couch, he shit the bed.

    Bought a Quinn, he shit the bed.

    The way i see it, if Hillis shits the bed...it doesn't hurt us anymore.

  • I don't know as much about the history of the Browns uniforms as you guys do, but have they ever worn brown helmets? If done correctly, they could be awesome. They would definitely be unique. What do you guys think?

    I think it would look really extremely bad. I've tried it in madden with poor results. I'd rather see a white helmet than a brown one, however Orange works the best.

    I fully agree with you Cysko on this one. The Orange is the only way to go. Not wanting any white helmets from the 40's & 50's or a Brown one either. Uniforms may vary but don't mess with our hat...ever.

  • remember back in the 80's when they switched back to the white pants from orange? I think it was Cody Riesen who said he liked the whites better because you can see the blood better!
