What the heck, Carolina. They deserve that loss for even thinking that combo would look good, let alone actually wearing it. Watching highlights on sportscenter right now, the uniform looks actually really nice. I like the blue over black a lot more than I thought I would, the shoulder numbers are ridiculous though. Also wished the Bucs had decent uniforms, their red paired against the Panthers blue on the score bug looked great, only if the Bucs uniform could help represent that on the field Follow the NFA, and My Baseball League here: https://ahsports.boardhost.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 If the Panthers had worn blue socks in this game, this would be my favorite look of theirs. I'd be up for them adopting a black helmet and rolling with it full-time. The teeny-tiny TV numbers remind me of Reebok's failed extra-tight jersey experiment from about 10 years ago, most infamous for turning the Colts' stripes into equals signs. I agree that if they're going to be that small, just dump them entirely. In fact, in the era of 4K/8K TV and ever-shrinking jerseys, I wonder if TV numbers will be on their way out. The Patriots already ditched them on their alts, after all.

HOOVER Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Carolina has 3 great looks that they should stick to: 1. Black jerseys, Silver pants, Black socks 2. White jerseys, White pants, Blue or White socks 3. Blue jerseys, White pants, Blue socks They should never stray from these. Last night, they looked ridiculous. They are just shuffling colors for the sake of doing it, which is almost always a disaster. Also, holding to my old statement that the Bucs uniforms aren’t bad and could be fixed by simply changing the number font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having designed at least a hundred football uniforms for teams in my career, I can say with confidence that trying to fit shoulder stripes, a TV number, AND a sleeve logo to a Jersey is essentially impossible. With shoulder stripes, the TV number has to be placed on the sleeve. If you insist on a logo there, you have no room on the shoulder for a TV number, as evidenced last night.

PrimalCookie Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 With blue socks, that would’ve been an okay combo. Still not as good as silver or white pants, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo, Panthers, boo. we haven't worn silver pants for 3 seasons now. they're still our best look w the silver helmets. do not want black helmet or black pants. and yes, the blue on TV looks different under the lights and soaked from the rain.

Gothamite Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Yeah, the NFL is perfectly happy with teams foregoing TV numbers on Color Rush and throwback jerseys. If teams can skip them, then they aren't needed. And if they aren't needed, then they shouldn't be cluttering up the shrinking real estate that is an NFL jersey. Time to revisit that particular rule.

Pizzaman7294 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Can you imagine being the equipment guy and having 10 different sized TV numbers for the Panthers jerseys this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 It never even dawned on me that Washington’s throwbacks don’t use TV numbers either which to me just means the numbers are unnecessary. However, it doesn’t hurt a uniform to have them. IMO, a jersey should incorporate either or and in some cases both on a jersey can get a pass.

BBTV Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I don’t think TV numbers are important at all anymore, with the exception of identifying a player in a photo where his jersey number might be obfuscated. Front helmet numbers would solve that “problem”, but aren’t practical for every team.

Lights Out Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Well, one positive of Carolina's new look is that it proves full shoulder loops are still doable on modern templates: There's no excuse now for every team with shoulder stripes not to do the same thing.

A Lot of players wear the cap-sleeve cut, though, and most teams’ shoulder loops are wider than the Panthers.’ There are two excuses right there.

Why cant the Redskins slap the throwback logo on their helmets? It is already a fauxback at least make it match.
