Are the LA Rams uniforms really the ugliest in the NFL?

2021 means a new season, but familiar controversy

The new color for 2021? Well, once more, the new color was accidentally leaked. A week later, the new color scheme was made official.

The Rams have three uniform variations this year, as shown in the Tweet below. Those color combinations are Bone White, Royal Blue, Sol Yellow, and White.

So how are the Rams doing in each version of their 2021 NFL Schedule?

Rams make a fashion statement in 2021

Well, we can break that down for you this year:

Week     Opponent                    Uniform                Outcome

Week 1: vs Chicago                  White/Sol             W  34-13
Week 2: @ Indianapolis          Bone/Royal         W 27-24
Week 3: vs Tampa Bay            Bone/Bone          W 34-24
Week 4: vs Arizona                   Royal/Royal         L  37-20
Week 5: @ Seattle                    Bone/Royal         W 26-17
Week 6: @ New York Giants  Royal/Sol             W 38-11
Week 7: vs Detroit                    Royal/Bone         W 28-19
Week 8: @ Houston                 Bone/Sol              W 38-22
Week 9: vs. Tennessee            White/Sol             L 28-16
Week 10: @ San Francisco    White/Royal         L 31-10
Week 11: BYE WEEK
Week 12: @ Green Bay           Bone/Royal          L 36-28
Week 13: vs. Jacksonville        Royal/Bone          W 37-7
Week 14: @ Arizona                 Bone/ TBD
Week 15: vs. Seattle                 Royal/ TBD
Week 16: @ Minnesota           Bone/ TBD
Week 17: @ Baltimore             Bone/ TBD
Week 18: vs. San Franciso       Royal/TBD

If you are keeping track of the Rams’ record with their pants? The record is as follows:

Pants  2021 Record

Sol       3-1
Royal   2-3
Bone    3-0

If the Rams uniforms have any bearing on the outcome of games, it appears that the team ought to avoid the royal pants. The Rams are a pathetic 3-7 when the team dons the blue pants. Instead, the Rams have been running at an eye-popping pace of 11-1 when the team wears bone pants. The Rams are 4-6 when the team breaks out the sol yellow pants.

Ugly uniforms? Perhaps. But winning is awfully pretty. So hopefully, the Rams will wear bone pants through the rest of the season. Of course, apparel does not dictate the outcome of NFL games.

By why tempt fate?
