Glorious Seahawks vs. Broncos throwback uniform showdown is NFL's best this season

Thursday night’s clash between the Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos promises to be one of the most visually striking games of the 2026 NFL season, thanks to both teams donning throwback jerseys that evoke the AFC West rivalry of the 1970s through the 1990s. The Seahawks will wear a retro design inspired by their 1990s era, while the Broncos will channel their 1977 Super Bowl squad—the first in franchise history to reach the big game, though they fell 27-10 to the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl XII.

This matchup isn’t just a nod to football’s past; it also highlights the NFL’s embrace of vintage aesthetics, with both teams sporting vibrant home jerseys. Seattle’s new ownership has already signaled plans to revive throwback white road uniforms in 2027, while Denver’s “Mile High Collection” throwbacks have been a fan favorite since their 2024 debut, contributing to their undefeated 5-0 start this season.

The game, airing on Amazon Prime at 8:15 PM ET, could set the tone for what promises to be a season rich in throwback-style showdowns, blending nostalgia with on-field competition.
