5 NFL teams that should change to new uniforms next in 2020

2. New England Patriots
Winning can make almost any uniform look good. Perhaps that’s why no one has been screaming too loudly about how bad the New England Patriots jerseys are.
Originally formed in 1960, the Patriots had their colors correct with a patriotic red, white, and blue. They also had an awesome helmet starting in the mid-60s with Pat Patriot snapping a football. Then in 1993, they changed to their current helmet which doesn’t look nearly as good.

Another change came in the early 2000s when they changed to a darker blue, which doesn’t fit with the Patriot theme.
With all that being said, they just simply need to go back to what worked and wear their red jerseys and white helmets full-time. It’s a look everyone loves and Matt Coan of Bleacher Report named it one of the best throwback jerseys in NFL history.
"The New England Patriots red throwback jerseys used to represent a long era of losing and unsuccessful seasons. That has all changed now, as the Patriots have become one of the best teams the past two decades and have worn these red uniforms in many of their wins. The red, white and blue color scheme are classic patriot colors and are a perfect fit for the team from New England."
New England is undergoing some huge changes this offseason as they have said goodbye to Tom Brady. They should do the same thing with their uniforms and they already know which way to go with their future look.
