The Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks may win the best-dressed game of the 2026 NFL season award, when they go head-to-head in their incredible throwback uniforms in a Thursday Night Football showdown in Week 6.
Both teams going with throwback threads brings back memories of when Seattle still played in the AFC West, in the King Dome, and evokes visions of John Elway throwing passes and Steve Largent catching them. On paper, this could have very well been the Super Bowl matchup from February if not for Bo Nix's injury. As it stands now, this game is still between two front-runners in each conference.
Fans of both teams (and uniform buffs) loved the matchup on Twitter/X. Check out some of their reactions below.
