The Pittsburgh Steelers announced yesterday that they would be wearing their throwback “block number” uniforms on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers, which just so happens to have worked out in the past. They have only worn these uniforms as throwbacks thrice before, and have come out victorious each time.
The fanbase has long called for the team to revert to these uniforms as their regular jerseys on a full-time basis. Needless to say, they have been very supportive of the team when they wear them as throwbacks, even while wishing to see them every week.
