"The Pittsburgh Steelers lost to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night, and they looked like crap the whole time. These awful outfits were meant to be throwbacks honoring the Steelers' inaugural season in 1933. They looked so dumb. This looks like a still from a low-budget movie in which a washed-up quarterback wins the Super Bowl while defeating cancer through the power of prayer."
""What if Wolverine played football?" is not a good place to start with a design concept. Get rid of these!"
The Pittsburgh Steelers lost to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night and performed poorly across the game. The team wore throwback uniforms intended to honor the franchise's inaugural 1933 season, but the outfits appeared unattractive and ill-conceived. The look evoked a low-budget movie aesthetic, with the uniform resembling a washed-up quarterback's cinematic comeback more than a respectful homage. A superhero-inspired motif suggested by the phrase "What if Wolverine played football?" clashed with effective design principles and amplified the uniforms' absurdity. The reaction concluded with a blunt call for the uniforms to be discontinued.
