Plus I don't think they distanced themselves from the B+Y because that's the colors they went with with these new uniforms.
It would not surprise me at all if they wanted to use B+W's but were overwhelmed by all the B+Y's in the stands and popularity of the B+Y's and changed their minds.
Maybe they "heard" how much we all wanted B+Y's and @#$%& thought just by using the B+Y colors, it wouldn't matter what the rest of the uni looked like and people would still like them. He's partially right. Most people LOVE the colors but HATE what he did to the horn. IMO, deep down, @#$%& is STILL not sure he made a mistake by neutering the helmet horn no matter how many people or players tell him so.

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
