Unpopular opinion, I am sure, but the full-body jag would look great on a helmet.
Now that's a mockup I'd love to see

No other combos, especially the socks.

Yep. The Wild, Texans, Jags, and Panthers all had great uniforms on day one, and only the Panthers have had the wherewithal to keep from messing with it. The Texans are the next closest, but they ruined their road look when they stopped pairing red socks with the blue pants.
The Panthers are an expansion team that made their modern uniforms their rock-solid identity. It's the closest a modern expansion team's identity has gotten to being "established"* and people want to futz with it. No thanks. The Panthers can look like they look now forever. I don't need them jumping on the five year uni rotation.
*the Oklahoma City Thunder are a new team that's made their inaugural look an "established" look, but it's awful.
The Diamondbacks are an unfortunate victim of the trend too. Hell they won a championship in their original look and still felt the need to change everything

Carolina's inaugural unis were perfect. The original logo > the updated version.
My only complaint is the existence of white pants. They need to wear silver with all three jerseys.
Honestly? I find the calls for the Panthers to radically alter their look kind of frustrating. They've kept essentially the same identity since the 1990s, and it's a solid one.
Here we have a modern uniform that manages to look good and not seem overdone, and it's only been ever so slightly tweaked since 1995. That should be the standard- a new team gets their look right on the first go and doesn't muck it up. Their expansion cousins in Jacksonville are perfect examples of what happens when you muck it up.
The Panthers, though, are the gold standard of a new team establishing a bold new look, and making it their own through commitment to it. It's such a rarity in the Big Four that I want to see their identity stick around as long as possible.
Expansion teams starting with a great uniform then changing it over and over again is such a sad thing to see, and it happens constantly. Never understood it

Not sure how much of an unpopular opinion this is, but Vegas’ Reverse Retro uniform should stay around for a while. It’s better than the gold jersey too
Completely agree. Before they were worn on the ice I preferred the gold, but in practice the red is just outstanding

Fun fact: the Browns did not wear their brown jerseys in 2011(excluding preseason), going WAH all season
Watching a team wear white-on-white every week en route to finishing 4-12 sounds mind-numbingly boring

That Packers uni is actually pretty nice

With the Bengals' uniform change coming, in a few years we'll be reminded that Joe Burrow wore these for half a season

The Bengals' "B" logo has flown under the radar as one of the worst logos in the big four. How bad must an NFL logo be if people clamor for another angry animal face to replace it?

Where's the logos for Larry Kwong and Fred Sasakamoose?

I refuse to compromise on any Dolphins logo that doesn't feature the dolphin wearing a helmet

Why are we calling them, Washington, the Football Team? The other 31 clubs are a football team too.
everyone I know calls them the Skins or the full old name that's banned on here. Obviously that's just anecdotal, but I can't help but think that type of thing will stick around if the team stays in nameless limbo instead of just adopting a new identity and moving the hell on

I don't think that's the issue at all, it's just that in all the databases, 'Football Team' is stored in the 'Team_Nickname' column, so the systems use it whenever the nickname is called for, which can lead to situations where you have "Eagles are visiting the Football Team", which looks ridiculous.
I've seen plenty of regular people calling them Football Team, be it tongue-in-cheek or not

Well the Rams look worse and so did the Bucs and Browns so yes

How will having no name satisfy them then? People have been saying this about keeping WFT too.

WFT is fine, but I wish websites and apps would use Washington instead of Football Team.
The amount of people who think "Football Team" is their new nickname is unbelievable

At this point I'm just hoping for any name. WFT has to go. It's ridiculous they'll be unnamed for yet another season

I really, really, really hate the St. Louis Blues jerseys. The dark blue doesn’t look good at all to me and I feel that they should just put more yellow into the jersey, or replace the dark blue with their old red.
Never liked the navy either. The away unis have a lot less of it and are better off for it. Both need to ditch the shoulder yoke though. The throwback third jerseys are far and away their best

That's a fair point on the helmet logo's repetitiveness. In that case, why have anything on the sleeves? There's not a lot of real estate there as it is. I'd be fine with just leaving it blank and letting the hoops be the star.
NFL teams need more alternate logos. It leads to a lot of stylistic possibilities in MLB and the NHL

Why look good when you can reach out to males ages 16-22, the single dumbest subsection of consumers alive.
They're appealing to the 18-22 year olds on the team. The players are deciding what's "clean" and what's not and that's a big reason why almost every college team looks so ridiculous now
