I hate to nitpick, but the Giants alts are screwed up. The red jersey should not have a contrasting collar, and the Parcells era uni should have striped pants. Other than that, very nice.
I'm a little bitter after all the trouble to get all the uniform threads out there so the EA people can get em right and yet the alts are still hurting. Might want to make a patch for that phill.

They should also have stripes on their throwback at the sleeves:
Red - White - Red stripes
ARGH! Nice showing the DEFENDING SUPER BOWL CHAMPS the respect they deserve.
Whoever did the research for the throwback uniforms needs to be dragged out into the street and shot.
They've screwed up so many of them it's not even funny. The current uniforms seem to be OK, ignoring a few stripe-width issues we've seen, but the throwbacks are just all messed up.
We have the Giants without pant stripes... the Patriots without pant stripes and the wrong shade of blue... the 49ers with the wrong helmet... the Bills with the wrong helmet... and I'm not sure what those green and white Eagles uniforms are... colors look like late 60s, but they have the current helmet and no pant stripes...
I mean, seriously... if they can't get them right, why bother? I want to have as many throwbacks and alternates as possible... but if they're all wrong it kinda defeats the purpose.
Can any one confirm that Marion Barber has dreads this year? Every screen shot I've seen show's him without dreads. He had them last year for crying out loud. I don't want to jump the gun but is this yet another EA screw up?
You know, I used to not give a damn about uniform inaccuracies. I kind of just looked the other way in spite of the Cowboys helmets being jacked up for what was going to be at least 2 years straight. But now, my question is WHY? Why are there so many uniform screw-ups? I can just about give EA a pass on throwback uniforms. But what is the excuse for messing up current unis? It really makes you wonder if the uniform team or person watches the NFL at all? Imperfections that we'll pick up on right away aren't detected by any of the good folks at EA/Tiburon? That is just a bit beyond ridiculous.
And then when we demand for it to be fixed, EA apologists look at us as perfectionistswhen in fact, uniforms shouldn't have been screwed up in the first place.

I too would like this to be confirmed. However, seeing as though it's going to be viewed as minute detail, I doubt we'll get find out before Madden ships.
