Wha...what are they going to do for the helmets? Air Force style bolt? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Well, we are talking about the Spanos family. The only thing they haven't done is take the logos to midfield at set them on fire. Remember, these are the same clowns who ditched the lightning bolt on the pants, only to put them back on when fans complained. Doing away with the rounded bolt would be the last straw...but not surprising given their stupidity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I've always liked the curved bolt on the helmet, but it's never been a strong primary logo. Using an updated version of the old shield logo sounds fine. Honestly though, I'm just happy for the return of powder blue. Are new uniforms in order along with the apparent logo change?

Not a total (for sure not a Broncos style horse) as I wouldn't want to lose the old character, but maybe along the lines of what the Seahawks did? I loathe the shield logo. It defies logic to me to want to incorporate 2 big elements of your division rivals (sheild-Raiders and horse-Broncos). Now all they need to do is add a drop-shadow so they mimic the Chiefs, too. Just, no. There has to be something different and more modern looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 You've had the horse every bit as long as the Broncos and the shield even longer than the Raiders. Why would you want to cede those? That would be like saying "the Packers should ditch their logo because the rival Bears also use an elliptical letter on their helmets." The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Mitch B Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 After watching highlights off the 49'ers-Rams game, I was amazed by how much I liked the Rams wearing white jerseys over navy pants. The thick white pants stripe and the white horns on the helmet really pop. I've been hoping the Rams switch to gold jerseys for their primary look when they move into their new stadium, but if they remove the ugly gold from their current jersey, the navy and white is a good look.

The white-horned helmet and blue pants really do look great and work well together. Bring in a white and blue version of their classic home jersey, and that uniform is miles better than the road version of that set. I also love the connection to the Fearsome Foursome. The more I think about it, the more I hope they do blue and yellow at home and white and blue on the road, or at the very least, as an alternate look.

SFGiants58 Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Just say no to white face masks on the navy/white helmet. The result (on the right) is a mess compared to the navy and the gray: MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
