The NFL's Color Rush campaign has officially come to a close. The Steelers became the final team to unveil a Color Rush jersey on Sunday when they broke out a brand new uniform combination for their Christmas Day game against the Ravens.
For the first time in team history, the Steelers went with an all-black uniform combo.

Apparently, the NFL was saving its best Color Rush for last. Nearly everyone on Twitter agreed that the uniforms are awesome, which was weird because no one on Twitter ever agrees on anything.
If there are color rush power rankings, the @steelers are #1. #HereWeGopic.twitter.com/9apkWPe9Ei

Even football fans who hate the Steelers were willing to admit that the uniform combination was pretty slick.
This is the first time I've ever liked anything about the Steelers--and it's their uniforms. #ColorRushpic.twitter.com/uyjHlo3qed

Of course, like with everything, there is a small segment of people that don't like the uniforms, and apparently, those people live in Canada.
So the @steelers are now guilty of cultural appropriation. Like their #ColorRush unis? Then you'll love the @CFL's Hamilton Tiger-Cats. pic.twitter.com/gUgRwIylcx

Anyway, it's unclear if we'll see these uniforms again anytime in the near future. The NFL hasn't announced if there will be any Color Rush games in 2017, so no one knows when the Steelers might go with their all-black uniform combo again.
Of course, if the Steelers lose to the Ravens, they might want to ditch the new combo for good. To keep tabs on the game and to get live updates, make sure to click here and check out our CBSSports.com GameTracker.
