The 80's 49ers
were awesome. But the thing is between the 1980's unis...
...and the current ones worn since 2009...
...there are only minute differences that most non-49er fans would be hard-pressed to spot (probably why EA always f**ks up our unis/throwbacks in Madden
)
Having a throwback alternate that both honors the 1994 team, and the 1940s-early 60's teams which had no gold helmets/pants would be a nice change of pace. It's NOT like the team is going to switch TOTALLY to silver helmets or white pants....the NFL has gotten stricter on alternates and the rule now is teams at most can only wear throwbacks/alts for at most 2 games (and they can't be primetime games
)
