From fans to players and media, here are the best reactions to the new uniforms being unveiled.

the only thing I don't like about the #Vikings throwback uniforms for week one is that they won't wear them for the other 16 games. #SKOL #BestUniformEver

The media thinks they should be their primary uniforms
These are excellent.
If the Vikings wore these full-time and the Lions went back to the Barry Sanders era uniforms, the NFC North would be the best-looking division in football. https://t.co/JvttnvSoqu
