Are the Commanders trying to tell us something?
The Washington Commanders will unveil their new alternate uniforms on July 9. Some fans still dislike the name Commanders, but winning has a way of changing people’s minds. It has been hinted that Washington’s new alternates will resemble the previous uniforms when the team was called the Redskins. The Commanders shared the latest version of “Hail Tales,” the podcast with stories from the franchise’s long history. The latest version is about the “Monday Night Miracle”
While some fans still dislike the name Commanders, winning has a way of changing people’s minds. Washington’s 12-5 record last season and appearance in the NFC championship game made some fans forget they didn’t like the name. Meanwhile, other fans have moved on from the name debate and just want to enjoy drama-free football.
The uniforms are another topic. Some fans like them, others don’t. Some fans are especially critical of the all-black uniforms and the white jerseys. It has been hinted that Washington’s new alternates will resemble the previous uniforms when the team was called the Redskins. Not the helmet, of course. That has led to a lot of anticipation about this week’s reveal.
So, are the Commanders trying to tell us something? One day after the team announced the uniform reveal, the Commanders shared the latest version of “Hail Tales,” the podcast with stories from the franchise’s long history. The latest version is about the “Monday Night Miracle.”
For the younger fans, let’s refresh your memory.
That game is one of the most memorable and improbable wins in franchise history. The offense could do nothing for the entire game. Quarterback Mark Brunell connected on two deep touchdown passes to Santana Moss and the Redskins shocked the Cowboys. Moss immediately became a franchise legend.
Did you notice those uniforms? Washington was wearing its traditional white tops with burgundy pants. Could this week’s reveal resemble those uniforms from 20 years ago?
Perhaps it’s nothing, but Washington owner Josh Harris has said the Commanders “will honor the past,” while looking toward the future.
You can’t make everyone happy. No move will have every fan happy. But bringing back uniforms that resemble the old ones would make a large portion of the fan base happy.
Maybe the Commanders are trying to tell us something. Maybe not. We’ll find out in a few short days.
