Two NFL teams traditionally play on Thanksgiving - the Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys. Both teams have worn throwbacks for the special Thursday game. The Cowboys wore their throwback duds last week, and the Lions are set to wear theirs for Thursday's game; but it got me thinking about those two teams throwback jerseys.
The Lions recent history hasn't exactly been storied - but these Barry Sanders throwbacks from 1994 should remind you of greener pastures. These jerseys look solid with a grey hoodie underneath.
We at The Well Dressed Sports Fan sort of like these Tony Romo throwbacks, but not enough to recommend them more than their current white threads. They look eerily like the current NFL Pro Bowl jerseys, which are pretty god-awful.
The Titans and Seahawks also play on Thursday - two teams with unfortunate jersey histories. Neither will be sporting throwbacks, but I thought I'd give their jerseys a look too. The Houston Oilers Warren Moon jersey is pretty cool - but while we normally love powder blue throwbacks, we're not head-over-heels for this jersey. The darker blue was also a better look for the Seattle Seahawks. We, do, however, like hat logos that stretch from side to side on the front (think Seahawks, Broncos and Bills rather than the 49ers or Raiders). If you're feeling festive - and not trying to attract a member of the opposite sex anytime soon - check out this Seattle Seahawks knit hat. Wowza.
