15. Buffalo Bills
Why yes, you have seen these before. These would be the wonderful red numbers that the Bills wore last year in the unofficial Christmas Bowl that was not, in fact, played on Christmas. While they may not be the worst jerseys of all-time, they’re far from being the best by my estimation.

14. Miami Dolphins
Hats off to the Dolphins for not taking the easy way out and going with the teal jerseys here. That being said, that orange is abrasive on the eyes. Plus, would it kill these teams or the NFL to learn that a nice accent stripe or two on the pants really makes these things work? A teal stripe would put these legitimately in a top-five conversation.
13. Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns went wild with their Color Rush jerseys, making them…uh…brown. I actually don’t mind the choice in the slightest. I think the orange flat lettering and numbers looks great. And the brown isn’t hideous, either. However, we might be getting some tasty orange joints from Cleveland as well. They’re yet another team with a conflict in their uniform colors.

12. Arizona Cardinals
Once again, I’m one of the people who thinks the black look for Color Rush is totally acceptable if done right. Not only are these done right, but they’re a noticeable remix of a look that the Cardinals have sported before. I know I’ve smacked down several uniforms for being too similar to their regular ones, but these are just different enough to work for me.

11. New York Jets
The other participant in 2015’s Christmas Bowl, the Jets technically are going with the bright green jerseys. Considering the change in the green and the different look, I was actually all in favor of this look for them. However, they’ll be wearing all white in Week 2 when they would’ve been wearing the greens in the Christmas Bowl Part 2 (Electric Boogaloo). To help colorblind fans that struggled last season, New York will wear white against the Bills.
