...also at times during this era they had uncolored and plain end zones.

Yep. The Pats had very non-discript end zones for the majority of the time they used Foxboro. I remember several years the "Patriots" word mark actually located behind the end zones for years.

In 1983, the Lions had their 50th Anniversary logo (which they wore as a patch on their uniforms as well) at midfield.

Yep, 

One single season in 1983/84. I was looking for a better graphic to add to my profiles. That patch is a bugger to replicate in paint! LOL

I feel like a larger template will be beneficial. If copied from full size it should be 9144x4344

Thanks for the update. I was having problems with the NFL Shield. And I can modify it to show the standard shield, as it will revert back to Red, White, and Blue this season.

Looks like an Arial subet font. Odd I dont remember the field so much though I was in attendance for that game. I was in 8th grade, and i got tickets with my parents and older brother who worked as an usher that year in the Silverdome.

Here is a very old Historic Images pic of the Silverdome in 1976. The dome had deflated due to a severe storm.

Endzone was painted, Lions script smaller and closer to the goal line. No directional arrows next to numbers. I am unable to make out if the Liions helmet logo is on the "50" or not.

Update:

 

Pontiac Metropolitan Stadium aka Silverdome 1975/1976

Due to the lack of photgraphs from that era. This is the way the field would have looked for the first two years of the stadium's existance. I do believe before a national Thanksgiving game telecast in 1976 the Lions added their Helmet logo. Though I can not find any proof as of yet!

By 1984, they had progressed to a better looking font, (Comic Sans?)  ...

Well I couldn't find a Modified Cooper Font that looked anything like it, but I found "Hamilton Clarendon Condensed 1899" that looks pretty close

(These fields that I am doing are not to the full 9144x4344 resolution, just meant to be a starting point and to chronicle some research into what some of the past NFL fields looked like.  I'm not as skilled graphically as the others in this thread, just trying to help out and add some images to the collection.)

Only thing different I would do is to fix the inside oval of the "O" in San Diego. It looks like it follows the interior circumference evenly.

Not a problem. As soon as I finish updating my 1983 Silverdome field (with the patch logo, man it's real bugger drawing the logo by hand in paint) and work on the two other fields (from the late 80's), with the different End Zone set ups (mostly the inversion on the colors of the word ("LIONS") the slightly changed middle helmet logo, and the first inclusion of the "Pontiac Silverdome" to the field. 

 

San Diego's field was always an interesting breath of fresh air, though like the old Orange Bowl Stadium, got really worn out by the end of the year. Between the Chargers, San Diego State Aztecs, and the Holiday Bowl (and also recently the Poinsettia Bowl). That is a rough schedule!

Actually beginning work on the Phoenix (Arizona) Cardinals time at Sun Devil Stadium. There where 4 distinct fields the baseline (with painted over Sun Devil markings) The more detailed (After the Sun Devils season was over), the switch to "Arizona", and the year before the U of P stadium opened (Current Graphics, but at Sun Devil Stadium.

I've been thinking for a while now that having a thread for current NFL fields and fields is redundant, so I'm just going to make this thread the only one for NFL fields. With that, here are some updates for 2015.
