The NFL’s Color Rush promotion Thursday night was a nightmare for colorblind viewers who had telling the Jets, with their all green uniforms, from the Bills and their all red outfits. If there were, it’s unlikely the uniform combination would have been agreed to.

I get what the NFL is trying to do with their new Thursday Night Football “Color Rush” campaign: make the jerseys bright; make everyone look like OR, that’s what the kids are into these days.
You thought that the digs the Bills and Jets are wearing tonight are terrible, at least they don’t look like walking bottles of spicy mustard. Both teams wore solid colors on their cleats, socks, pants, jerseys and undershirts. This kind of inheritance pattern is called X-linked, and primarily affects males. But given the color scheme, the league appears to be about a month and change early.
Well then, it seems pretty fitting that the Jaguars’ “Color Rush” uniforms are about as bad as this game is probably going to be next week.

So what was it like watching the game for the faction of color blind fans?
