  1. Yes you're both right, there's the primary logo on the back above the name and the helmets will give them the necessary context on the field. That said, I really don't think it's that crazy of an idea that these jerseys are incredibly plain and would be harder to identify without the wordmark at the very least from a retail perspective. Why it couldn't have gone in the traditional location above the number on the front is hard to say for sure, but the neckline looks a bit more cramped then it did before with this new template.
  2. After sitting on these for a few days, it occured to me that the wordmarks were practically required for the Away and Alternate jerseys because without them, there's nothing that would indicate that they're for the Arizona Cardinals. Placing it on the sleeve makes what is an otherwise very common striping pattern somewhat proprietary and provides some greater visibility I suppose.
  3. You can't say the the black alternates are not near matches of each other I know it's not their signature look, but it was the very first thing that came to mind when the unis were unveiled
  4. They could have added like 4 other colors to the Red and Black that would have been way cooler than Silver, really shocked they went with that
  5. He just mentioned " who do we want wearing the red, white, and black?" and then referred to the new unis.
  6. https://titanswire.usatoday.com/2022/04/02/titans-actively-working-oilers-throwbacks-2023/ Fair, they haven't made the officially official announcement yet, but it is definitely happening.
  7. The Titans will also be adding Oilers throwback uniforms next season
  8. Say what you will about the Canes and their incessant fiddling with their identity, but dark helmets on the road are awesome. I would love to see the league allow teams to do that full time.
  9. These are fantastic, I love it all- A great example of a subtle, yet needed refresh.
  10. Just an FYI, I wouldn't read too much into teams not having any ads at this point in time. A lot of these deals won't be finalized until right before the regular season begins, exactly like what happened with helmet ads for many teams in the past two seasons.
  11. The action green with blue pants would actually be an awesome, well-balanced look, but the monochrome is obviously just too much. Definitely wouldn't mind seeing the bottom stripe on the Seahawk be changed to green as well.
  12. I'm sorry, but that's a really dumb angle to criticize a logo from. Logos aren't meant to be detailed field illustrations and measuring the worth of a mark by how accurately it captures every biological subtlety of what it is meant to represent is not ever going to be productive. She might as well note that owls aren't actually purple and silver either.
  13. The Avs are just a mess generally and have one of the worst logos in all of major sports. The shift to blue over black has been a step in the right direction, but it's still super unbalanced in part due to how they use it with the uniform, but mainly because the blue is too dark and the black and silver feel unnecessary and create inconsistencies. If they could eliminate at least one of those accents, brighten the blue, and go back to the drawing board for a logo that isn't so hopelessly 90's, they could have a cool look. I just think that those steps would be a lot more effective then continuing to try and tinker with what feels like a hopelessly dated look.
  14. New Orleans has no idea how they should look. Their slow chipping away of all the traditional striping paired with the continued insistence on monochrome looks is so wrong for them. A black Saints helmet with proper striping could look really cool, it's a shame this is what they're going with.
  15. I'd rather Green Bay change then Georgia tbh, the logo suits them better
  16. They could have at least called it the Crypto Center or something, that feels much more natural than what they chose.
  17. I think that every Sharks logo has been cartoon-y, just in different styles. The current does feel very anime-inspired and the old one feels like it's from an old comic strip. The new one is undeniably much more dynamic and has better proportions overall, but I would definitely like an update that reduces the bad aspects of it.
  18. Yeah, I'm not sure that I understand what's supposed to be weird about the Rams' number font aside from maybe the shiny outline texture. It's one of the most legible typefaces in the league and is only slightly stylized. I think that was one of the things that they got right with the update.
  19. Kind of annoying that everybody knew this was coming, and yet they waited until the deadline passed for uniforms to be planned next season. Oh well, still a long overdue change that will lead to some beloved looks returning along with some chances for more cohesive and interesting alternates. Consider me intrigued for what will come from this.
  20. These uniforms are about as close to perfect as you can get now, instantly a contender for top uniform set in the NFL.
  21. Totally agree, it's so intense and vibrant. I love their color scheme in general, I really just wish that the rest of the brand could catch up with it.
  22. I just don't see grey as a neutral color at all, regardless of the unique, old-fashioned traditions within baseball. I mean, this board coined terms like GFGS for a reason, right? Otherwise, I think that uniforms like these might wouldn't get so much hate. Aside from that, you can't look at modern helmets like the Jags or expressive helmets like Bengals and tell me that a grey mask looks good for them. Any "one size fits all" mentality toward aesthetics is a bad idea.
  23. Hahaha I know that you've posted this a bit a few times before, but I think that seeing helmets like the Jaguars with a grey facemask will always force the same primal reaction of disgust out of me. I mean, the grey facemask love is still mind-boggling to me. Outside of 5 or so teams that utilize grey/silver in the color scheme, it's always inferior to a color mask. The Bills just improved their uniforms tremendously with this change.
