For those interested...

Week 2 (at PHI)
Week 4 (at NO)
Week 10 (at TB)
Week 11 (at MIA)

Seems like a lot. Too many teams have ripped off our "wear white at home" style.

It would be cool if the Cowboys wore Navy blue (Navy SEALS) only against the eagle, Giants and Washington. lol

And then, if they make the SB...wear that Navy Blue!

I think it is more of the blue jersey curse than that.

You do not see the Eagles wear white at home often, neither do the Saints. The Florida teams do but usually in the first few weeks of the season when dark colors attract more heat.

I don't think there is a team, coaching staff, or player in the league that legitimately believes in a 'blue jersey curse'.

USC and UCLA do this (color on color) and I think it looks great.

Not now, but you better believe they did back in the 1970s and 1980s.

These days, I think teams recognize the Cowboys as a draw and realize they can sell more white jerseys if it is announced in advance.

This made me think?

So, and this might be wrong...but are you saying that if the Cowboy play the Giants, fans in NY know that the Cowboy are going to wear white or blue that they will buy more jerseys?

This works best if one team has a light primary color and the other team has a dark primary color. Both teams in dark jerseys or both teams in light jerseys is a bit too much for me.

Yeah, Cowboys-Redkins might work but Cowboys-Eagles would look weird. Cowboys-LIons would be stupid.

No, most teams announce their jersey colors and use them as promotions.

The Giants in particular have had "red outs" or "white outs" based on jersey choice.

Dallas is a huge game on any team's schedule. Why not wear white and encourage fans to do the same. The only way most of them can is to buy the alternate white which is basically the case for 90% of the team in the league.

Eagles usually play almost half their schedule in white unis at home due to the humidity. This has been the case for awhile.

Can't say I have paid attention, so I have to take your word for it. I seem to remember more of them wearing those stupid black alternates.
