It was only a matter of time till the Eagles got swept up in the “throwback” jersey hullabaloo. The 75^th anniversary seems as good a time as any and on Sept. 23^rd the Eags will wear these blue and yellow jerseys vs. Detroit. Unlike the throwback jerseys worn by Detroit, Green Bay, San Diego, and Dallas – to name but four teams – the Eagles throwback unis have absolutely no relationship to the current color scheme, so we’ll see how well these things sell in the gift shop.

 

On that note, if any good can come out of this throwback exhibit on 9/23 it might be that it limits the Eagles to only wearing their “black” jerseys (how original) in only one other home game this year since league rules stipulate that “alternate” jerseys can only be used twice in a season.
