There are superstitions that seem to come with any NFL team's fanbase. But for the LA Rams, superstitions seem to be less popular. Perhaps the team's return to Los Angeles, California, has reset traditions and reliance upon cosmic forces like luck, Karma, and anything else unseen and mystical. But after the team's surprising Week 8 win as a home underdog to the Minnesota Vikings, I'm willing to open the floor back up to renewed debate.
We tracked the team's jersey selection and compared the uniform to the team's success rate through the 2022 NFL season. At the time, it seemed that the least favorite uniform combination, Bone White Jersey on Bone White Pants, also happened to be the team's most successful uniform combination.
Seahawks go Navy on Navy
While I'm no fashionista, clearly the Seattle Seahawks social media presentation of their Week 9 uniform is a bit eclectic, and personally far to artsy-fartsy for my taste:
The Rams' choice of Throwback White Jerseys paired with Royal Blue Pants matches the same uniform combination worn against the Seahawks in Week 1 in 2023. Ironically, the Seahawks' choice of Navy Jerseys with Navy Pants matches their Week 1 uniform combination from their 2023 season opener.
Will the outcome of this game fall in line with last season's opener?
So how has the team done in 2024 so far?
- Week 1: Throwback White Jersey | Sol Yellow Pants - Loss
- Week 2: Bone White Jersey | Royal Blue Pants - Loss
- Week 3: Throwback White Jersey | Royal Blue Pants - Win
- Week 4: Throwback White Jersey | Royal Blue Pants - Loss
- Week 5: Royal Blue Jersey | Bone White Pants - Loss
- Week 6: BYE
- Week 7: Royal Blue Jersey | Sol Yellow Pants - Win
- Week 8: Bone White Jersey | Bone White Pants - Win
- Week 9: Throwback White Jersey | Royal Blue Pants
Of this week's color combination, the team has one win (at home) and one loss (on the road). Let's hope that the team rebounds with a road win in this one.
As always, thanks for reading.
