mbannon92 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 So, as many of you may remember, last fall I redesigned the entire NFL based on what I thought Nike might do in 2012. However, since then I've improved a lot, and looking back I felt that I could do a lot better. So, I decided to do another Nike NFL redesign, but this time I channeled my inner Sinatra and did it "my way." Essentially, I approached this project as if I had complete control over every aspect of the uniforms for every team. So, some traditional teams kept traditional looks while some were brought into the 21st century, some modern teams turned back the clock, and others simply in need of a makeover were given one. To give you all an idea of my thinking, here's a list of rules/changes I put into place:- Every team uses the same template, which combines features from the Pro Combat and "next best" Nike templates (the one that Stanford, OU, Georgia, and Florida use, among others).- NO FLYWIRE (yes, I'm looking at you Speed Machine template).- Nike logo above the NOB, to get it out of the way and prevent team logos from popping up there (one of my biggest pet peeves)- ONLY 3 combinations for each team: home, road, and an alternate to be worn up to 2 times per year. I did this to simplify and solidify the looks of each team.- Teams are allowed to have an alternate helmet design for the alternate uniform set.- No leotard looks (for the most part).- Bigger wordmarks on the front of jerseys (because what's the point of having them if you can barely see them).So, without further adieu, here are the teams posted by division:AFC EastBuffalo Bills: Home Road AltMiami Dolphins: Home Road AltNew England Patriots: Home Road AltNew York Jets: Home Road AltNFC EastDallas Cowboys: Home "Road" AltNew York Giants: Home Road AltPhiladelphia Eagles: Home Road AltWashington Redskins: Home Road Alt LogosAFC NorthBaltimore Ravens: Home Road Alt Cincinnati Bengals: Home Road Alt Cleveland Browns: Home Road Alt Pittsburgh Steelers: Home Road AltNFC NorthChicago Bears: Home Road Alt Detroit Lions: Home Road AltGreen Bay Packers: Home Road Alt Minnesota Vikings: Home Road AltAFC SouthHouston Texans: Home Away AltIndianapolis Colts: Home Away AltJacksonville Jaguars: Home Away AltTennessee Titans: Home Away AltNFC SouthAtlanta Falcons: Home Road Alt Carolina Panthers: Home Road AltNew Orleans Saints: Home Road Alt Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Home Road AltAFC WestDenver Broncos: Home Road Alt Kansas City Chiefs: Home Road Alt Logos Oakland Raiders: Home Road AltSan Diego Chargers: Home Road AltNFC WestArizona Cardinals: Home Road AltSan Francisco 49ers: Home Road AltSeattle Seahawks: Home Road AltSt. Louis Rams: Home Road Alt Nike + CFL 2015 | 2015-16 NBA Concepts | Complete College Football Redesign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbannon92 Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 AFC EastBuffalo Bills: Home Road AltI like the direction the Bills went with their unis this year, but I wanted to incorporate the logo more. So I kept the tapered striping on the helmet and added similar striping to the sleeves and pants. Also got rid of the extraneous logos that litter their current set and gave the road...BLUE PANTS!!! The standing bison throwback is the alt.Miami Dolphins: Home Road AltThe Dolphins are similar to what I did in my first NFL redesign. The sunburst from the logo is now on the sleeves, and a new logo, the sunburst with an "M" inside, is on the pants. I kept the dropshadow numbers because I like them New England Patriots: Home Road AltFor the Patriots I went with a more, well, Patriotic look. I eliminated silver, going with a white helmet and pants. The sleeves feature a sublimated stripe pattern (13 on each sleeve counting the negative space) and the pants feature a stripe similar to the one from their original Pat Patriot set. The alternate is the much-clamored-for red jersey.New York Jets: Home Road AltFor the Jets I went back to their 80s/90s look, with a slightly lighter green and the old italic "JETS" logo. I really think this makes for a stronger identity than the generic football logo. I made a semi-custom number font to match the logo, and added sleeve and pant striping that mimics the jet streaking across the top of the logo. Lastly, the alt features the first alternate helmet of the series, a white one to complete the "whiteout" look.

jakemon08 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 The Bills are beautiful, and I love what you did for the Pats. The other 2 fall flat in my opinion, but are still pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thespleenenator Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I love the pats and the jets! But yeah, the Bills alt is their road link. Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me. I cry tears.Chopping off the dicks of Filipino boys and embracing causes that promote bigotry =/= strong moral character.

MC2 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Unless he's since fixed it, the Alt link is the throwback, not the road uniform. Fast. Hard. Finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkerws Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 New England is really plain. The sublimation would likely be lost on the white jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knnhrvy16 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 That's one of my favorite Jets concepts I've seen here! The stripes are really, really neat. Everything flows well. Great work! The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

nuordr Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 The pants on the Dolphins set needs some striping and the sunburst on the jersey is missing something...maybe a "M" in the middle. The Patriots white helmet is okay, I hate the white pants for them but the striping is good. The Jets piping on the pants is good, I just wish the lines were thicker. The Bills, well it is similar to what they have now and I think it is okay to say the least.The Dolphins and Jets really need some striping on the helmet. They are just too plain.

Brian E Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 i really like the jets concept. i feel like nike might TRY and push black back into the scheme. i'd be interested to see what a black-infused alt would look like, instead of the all whites.

DeFrank Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 YES!Great to see you do an NFL thread, really looking forward to the series. I always envy the fact you have the patience to complete multiple teams and then post them. I'm always so impatient...PATS- I like this set, very simple. Agree with the move to remove silver, as I did. Not keen on the subliminal stripes with numbers on the shoulders. I think it'd look better with them on the same section. Maybe continue the stripes along the shoulders. The pants are a good interpretation, but not my favorite "logo incorporated". Almost too much like your old Texans.PHINS- Almost feels empty. Love the use of the sunburst, but the inside area could use something... like the M on the pants. That being said, the white pants are a little eh. The lack of green isn't great, and the logo feels empty. It looks much better on the green pants. Maybe add some outlines or green interior? Also, get rida that blue!BILLS- LOVE the idea with the stripes. Can't believe I've never seen a concept with that before. Great idea. Don't love the throwback alt however. Also, you didn't edit the shoes, was that purposeful?JETS- A great incorporation of the logo. Really like this set. Nice!Great to see you back in the concepts forum, can't wait to see this whole thing through. Don't tell me you've already finished the whole league? concepts: washington football (2017) ... nfl (2013) ... yikes potd 10/20/12 origin story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdougfresh Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Very nice work so far. Honestly, the highlights for me are the pant stripes for the Pats and Jets-- excellent use of their identities to create some modern stripe designs. My only gripe is the Dolphins' shoulders, they seem 'blank' without anything inside the sunbursts-- though I'm not sure what you could add there that wouldn't make it feel like it was too much. Maybe an 'M'?Great work overall, can't wait to see the next division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Bills: Home and road are perfect. The alternate is pretty similar to the home but it does not look bad at all. No complaints.Dolphins:I love the sun around the sleeves. Very creative. The pants are a little bit boring and I would have given them and orange alt but the white with teal pants looks fine.Patriots: Just what the Pats should look like. As a Patriots fan, I would be very happy if my team took the field in these next season. Great job.Jets:This is the only one that I don't really like. I think their current look is much better and these look a little dated. Also, with the white helmet on the monochrome white alt, they don't even look like the same team.Overall, this is great work and the quality and presentation is fantastic. I definetely look forward to seeing more of this series! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightning25 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I almost cried when I looked at the Pats jerseys. Seriously, that thing is a work of art. I would LOVE it if that's what they went with. Absolutely amazing. (**) (**) Jets are really great as well. Pants stripe is a bit weird, but otherwise it's really nice.

jaha32 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Although I really like the Jets real look, which looks so old and classic, I really like your jerseys here for them. I like the striping and it's a new take on that 1990s Jets look. DesignsByHahn.com Behance Dribbble Instragram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcb05 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 My only critique is that I wouldn've liked to see NE retain the silver helmet, but I love everything else you've done. Especially the striping and numbers on the Jets concept. FANTASTIC! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
