I love how these teams will screw up their rebrand but act like it's awesome, and then once they redo it again in 5 years, they basically bash the previous design and talk about how simpler, more traditional uniforms are better. Classic.

 

I agree.  Then you hear the same old stuff from the team.....we listened to our fans and wanted a more traditional and simple look.    

 

Makes you wonder who was in charge of the initial re-brands and uniform designs and why they made those decisions when most fans knew they were a failure from the start.   Early 2000's Bills, 49ers, and Lions...more recently the Browns, Jaguars, Titans, Buccaneers.  Jury is still out on the Jets.

 

The Cardinals are next in line for a needed overhaul.

"Hoisting new colors" also makes me think we'll see new (old?) primary color/uniform colors

The current colors are from being a doormat to the Saints, Panthers and Falcons.

Pewter and Red were introduced in 1997. The first 11 seasons in those colors resulted in 7 playoff appearances, 4 division titles (3 in the NFC South), and 1 Super Bowl Victory. That is a good run, and while the decade since then has been dark, Pewter and Red has seen way more success than Creamsicle Orange has ever seen, and I'm a fan of the Creamsicle.

They had a good 5 year run, but from 03 on it was mediocre to plain rotten.

People really really want to have new identities this year lol

Amen. It's clear the fans weren't clamoring for changes to traditional uniforms to the gaudy pieces of garbage that those teams changed to. Bills fans weren't demanding a generic change to navy blue and cramming every design element possible into their uniforms, and also go monochrome 90% of the time anyway. The Jaguars swung from wildly overdone with the two-tone helmet to too simplistic with their current ones. The only one I like from the late 90s/early 00s was the 49ers.

 

I'm sure they realize with jersey sales tanking that they're better off going back to an "old faithful" uniform. At least until the next uniform craze generates another round of horrendous uniforms, and then another round of "returning to throwbacks" soon after.

 

The Cardinals seemingly haven't got the hint from the Vikings and Falcons that uniforms with piping don't belong on the gridiron.

People’s imaginations are running rampant. This will basically just be the previous jerseys with the current helmet and logo. With maybe a little more creamsicle orange throughout.

[DailyRich 2]

Most common bit of speculation is a return to a white helmet with the current or Super Bowl era logo, which would allow them to wear their throwbacks again (they can't do it now because a player can only wear one helmet during the season).

Exactly, but the Buccaneers are almost 20 years between playoff wins.

I wish my favorite team was only 20 years between playoff wins.

Anything other than a pewter helmet would be a disaster.

If they use a normal number font the redesign is automatically AT LEAST an 80% upgrade

Remind me again of the glory the Bucs experienced in the creamsicles.

The nostalgia more than anything.  I for one am one who wants the red to remain primary, but who knows what might come about.

Get rid of one of the unique helmets in the league to go with yet another white helmet? I'll pass. 

[TBGKon 2,683]

I want a pewter helmet, but I have become content if they want to go with a white lid because of the throwback rules.

If by unique, you mean ugly.
