Top Ten Ugliest Uniforms?

That kid at Radio.com keeps pumping out the uniform lists. I've ignored several, but he gets it wrong on his list of ten worst uniforms in NFL history. He includes throwbacks, many of which are historic and unique – while ignoring actual ugly uniforms. The author would probably want to tear down Auchwitz because the building was old and ugly.

10. 2018 Titans all navy blue. Several things wrong with these uglies. Hardly any good. Should be higher on the list. But note how the grey facemasks don't stand out. This is a good thing.
9. 1934 Eagles blue/yellow worn in 2007. Bad call. These beauties are creative and different. Plus the grey facemasks don't distract or take away from the helmet. These uni shouldn't be on this list.
8. 2019 Jets black alternates. Yes these are bad. After over 50 years wearing green and white, did the Jets really need to add black as a color? Why?
7. 1960 Broncos mustard yellow worn in 2009. Shouldn't be on the list. These are classics that need to be remembered.
6. 1933 Steelers bumblebee worn 2012-2016. I love them. Some kiddie team needs to wear these. Of course they'd mess them up, adding some neon color or something, or pink socks for cancer awareness. Hey, where's all that pink on this list?
5. 1940 Giants red jerseys worn 2004-2007. Another classic. Remember Y.A. Tittle? He wore these. See how you can barely see the grey facemask? We'll be talking about that in a few days.
4. 1925 Bears striped jerseys worn in 1994. Gotta love 'em.
3. 2014 Tampa alarm clock numbers. Yes these are bad. At least the facemask blended in with the helmet (more able that in a few days).

2. 2002 Bills all blue unis. Yes keep them on this ugly list. At least the socks weren't all blue.
1. 2009 Seahawks neon green jerseys with navy pants. Hey these were better than the neon jersey pants socks shoes combo worn more recently.

Sometimes a team wears a uniform so long that you forget it is ugly. Perhaps the Broncos current uni is an example of this. Especially the all navy version.
Other ugly uniforms. 
Texans all navy too plain
Lions 2019 unis.
Saints all black
Jaguars most of their unis should be on this list.
Dolphins 2019
Patriots 2020 all navy
Rams 2020 all navy
Chargers 2020 all navy
Falcons 2019
Falcons 2020
