A look they love

When the Steelers take the field on Monday night against the Miami Dolphins, the team's uniforms will match the dark sky as they will be sporting the Color Rush uniforms this week.

The uniform has become a favorite with players and fans alike, a monochromatic look that was first introduced to wear primarily on Thursday Night Football.

"I love them. I really love them," said Joe Haden. "They look sick. And we play really well in them. You look good, you feel good, and you play good. I just really love them and am excited we get to wear them on Monday night."

The uniform is a black jersey with gold numbers and gold stripes on the sleeves, while the pants are all black.

"I like those. I think it's a good change," said James Conner. "When we have one style of game pants, everyone is so used to seeing us in black and gold at home. When it goes all black, I think it looks solid. It's like the Dark Knight."

It's not just the look the players like either. The Steelers are 4-0 in the uniforms, so maybe there is something to be said for them.

"It's a change from the norm, but the best part is we have a good record in them," said Cam Heyward. "Obviously we have to improve our record and hopefully they get us another 'W.'"

The Steelers first wore the uniforms on Christmas Day in 2016 when they defeated the Baltimore Ravens, 31-27, to win the AFC North. The team also wore them in 2017 against the Tennessee Titans at Heinz Field, a 40-17 win.

In 2018 the team wore them twice, the first time on Thursday Night Football when they defeated the Carolina Panthers, 52-21, at Heinz Field. They wore them a second time against the New England Patriots, a 17-10 win at Heinz Field.

"All black means all business," said Mike Hilton. "Those Color Rush are probably our favorite uniforms. We are excited to wear them. We know the fans will be excited. We just have to go out and put on a show Monday night."
