I’m just saying, making the bear the primary print logo while keeping the wishbone C on the helmet strikes me as a good balance. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wishbone "C" is legendary and historic. Why demote it? Because the Bears are trying to move out of Chicago and their fans hate Chicago. 2 ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOOVER Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Patriots vs Texans tonight looked awful. Patriots need Grey pants to wear with Navy jerseys in the worst way. Did I see somewhere they were coming this year? Texans makeover can’t come soon enough. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henburg Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 I don't necessarily think that the Bears should completely phase out the wishbone C, but I do think this looks pretty awesome in a vacuum. At the very least, it could work pretty well on a new alternate helmet. 11 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I’m not sure it works for me considering how well the C fits on the helmet. Gotta think the bear looks blobby from any sort of distance. 4 My NFL concept series (in progress) --ATL, CLE, NE, WAS done. AZ updated 04/21/23.

I wouldn't want the change because I happen to think the "C" has a false-eye effect because of the specific elongated wishbone shape and the way the hollow center of the "C" acts like pupil.

Bill0813 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Seeing the Bears logo on a helmet makes me wonder if the Ravens are also considering a change to the front facing mascot. I've seen it used on their sideline gear for this season. Yes, I know they won two Super Bowls with the current look, but I would prefer this. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 The Bear head looks like an ineligible blob of mesh and should stay as a secondary. Chicago has used the wishbone C for such a significant period of time where it should be untouchable at this point. Dumb, dumb. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The process has already started, and based off what they have, we won't need to worry about them looking the Patriots any longer. 14 hours ago, henburg said: I don't necessarily think that the Bears should completely phase out the wishbone C, but I do think this looks pretty awesome in a vacuum. At the very least, it could work pretty well on a new alternate helmet. The logo looks nice at a glance, but the longer you look at it, the more apparent the many mistakes are. The strange amount of detail, random spots of orange + white contact, and the hand-drawn nature of the logo makes me think that the Bears should modernize the logo before they promote it in any way. The idea behind the logo is really good and fits the Bears, but it could be improved immensely with tweaks that clean up those issues mentioned above. It also gives them the prefect opportunity to fix the wishbone C logo. Sometimes I give teams a pass on sub-par logos due to historical precedence, but I don't really see why the Bears don't clean up the rough edges within their branding. Fixing both logos would elevate the overall branding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolvikings Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 The Cardinals look better than they did last year. Still look bad, tho. 13 http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Cardinals are a lot easier on the eyes than they used to be, but still, white pants with this jersey would look great. The big wordmark is not bothersome (again, I think my brain is just fine with that style b/c we see it with plenty of colleges). The new helmet is really nice, I LOVE the finish of the logo. I am going to laugh so hard if they "relent" and wear white pants with the red jersey, but screw it up by going with white socks too. That'll happen at least once this season, I guarantee it. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s no chance of anything else. 4 1 http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
