Giants to wear all-whites jerseys on MNF

Mike in Long Beach : 9/20/2022 11:02 am
Per Julian Love, apparently stated on GMFB.
Hmm, I missed that

So that's the 2022 'Color Rush' Uniform?  
Big Blue Blogger : 9/20/2022 11:13 am : link
I don't think the jersey can be all-white. That would make it hard to read the numbers. ;o)
cowboys hate wearing the blues

Giants finally won in this jersey last year against Philly

Now Jones needs to snap his prime time streak of losses.
Classic look with a lot of great memories.  
Big Blue Blogger : 9/20/2022 11:21 am : link
Glad they brought it back.
No one let the cat out of the bag

This was announced before the season.

We’d wear whites at home, to force the Cowboys to wear their old ugly powder blue uniforms they never wore

Cowboys blues are different now, but I still like the plan

He also said he wants the fans to wear all white.
I really don't like this. To me it's just a sign the Giants

are intimidated by the Cowboys traditional White uniform so they force them to change it.

I want the Giants to beat the Cowboys while wearing the blue uniform.
This was pre-determined

The uniform schedule came out a long time ago...they're doing it this game because it's the Ring of Honor ceremony.

Unpopular opinion: This is a sign that NYG management doesn’t want to do color rush, and is doing as little as possible to cooperate with it. It’s passive aggressive. I like the all-whites but would like to see a really bold, beautiful color rush uniform once a year. I have no idea what it should look like, but I think this choice is timid and boring.

Yep, and that finally stopped under Parcells in 1988......
Composition of night-game crowds is quirky.

+1.

It's like conceding that the Cowboys are a better team and that the only way the Giants can win is to make the 'Boys feel uncomfortable in their blue uniforms.

F**k that!

We're Big Blue not Big White!
Moving the game to Sunday afternoon

There will be a lot of Cowboys fans there who bought their tix before the season started, but I expect it to be louder from Giants fans than it was last week and that was pretty loud. My son and I are on the crew to bring out the gigantic American flag before the game so we are pretty pumped. Going to be crazy.
I think the all-whites are a clever merger of throwback and color rush  
Big Blue Blogger : 9/20/2022 3:42 pm : link
I don't see it as passive-aggressive, or trolling, or a protest against the color rush concept. The Parcells-era Giants had some of their greatest moments in all-white: 4th and 17 at Minnesota, Bavaro steamrolling the 49ers at Candlestick; Bahr snuffing the three-peat in the NFCC. Aside from looking better on TV than some of the goofy fluorescent outfits around the League, an all-white design makes particular sense for the Giants.
Anyway, as a concession to the color rush concept...  
Big Blue Blogger : 9/20/2022 3:45 pm : link
...they took the blue stripe off the 1980s-era socks, and I think the fonts are updated. So it's not quite a throwback.

Both of their white uniforms (regular road uniforms and color rush) are equally white, so "all whites" doesn't really say much, IMO.
Just read that Daboll (lol, the giants marketing team)  
Mike in Long Beach : 9/20/2022 5:33 pm : link
Sent an email to season ticket holders urging everyone to wear white.

This would one should be a blast.

As far as I remember (and seems confirmed by the site linked), the Cowboys never had a uniform that anyone could reasonably describe as "powder blue" (which I think of as a Columbia blue).

throwing the football to a blue uniform Monday night. He has to remember the Giants are in White.

Reading way too much into this shit.

I've always thought they should wear white on the sunny game days

so they don't heat up more in their dark blue jerseys.
Otherwise what difference does it make?

Yup, seems you’re right. Probably confusing them with someone else. I’m getting a little older here, memory not quite as sharp

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 9/20/2022 6:54 pm : link
Is it Penn State that does the 'white out'?

If so, that'd be cool if we'd did the same.

I think MetLife will be rocking...& the average BAC will be 0.45%.

Agreed. They did this a couple of times in recent memory (1st game vs Arizona one year in early 2000s if I recall correctly). It’s why Miami does it in most of their home games.
So jerseys are predetermined which I never knew  
No1MDGiantsFan : 9/20/2022 8:22 pm : link
I guess that makes sense. Can they change them last minute? I would think not
