Uni Watch ranks Arizona Cardinals’ uniforms 30th in NFL

In 2005, the Arizona Cardinals introduced the uniform set that they wear today.

They added a black alternate look in 2010, but otherwise, little has changed over the last decade.

According to ESPN’s Paul Lukas, that’s a bad thing.

Lukas, who runs the site’s “Uni Watch” blog, ranked all 32 of the league’s teams in terms of uniforms, and he has the Cardinals at a miserable 30th.

Ugh — where do we start? There’s the absurd pants piping, the silly underarm striping, the unnecessary black uni, the blood-clot look, and so on. Even the helmet, which is really nice when viewed in isolation, doesn’t work because it’s an old-school design that looks out of place with the rest of the uniform’s new-school details. A mess from top to bottom.

Ouch.

Uniform rankings are purely a matter of opinion, though we have a tough time believing that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tennessee Titans are rocking a better look than the Cards.

And also, Lukas’ top-ranked team is the Pittsburgh Steelers, who should be nowhere near that spot as long as this is part of their wardrobe.
