Billy B Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Just a feeling, but I doubt that the NFL would let a team wear a one color logo like that on their helmet.The below happened, though at the time, the NFL would not have felt the need to guard against some of the trends we currently see.But this was their primary logo at the time. My point was more that I couldn't see the NFL allowing a team to dilute their brand by altering their primary logo like that to put on the helmet. The helmet is arguably a bigger piece of a team's identity than the logo itself and I don't think the league would want the logo on the helmet to be different than the primary mark used for everything else. Of course, this is just my guess, but I'd be shocked if the full-color jaguar head wasn't on the helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hugevolsfan Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 This would be a sharp new Jaguars helmet with the new logo. It would actually make the new logo look better.http://cdn2.sbnation...ttegoldetch.pngI don't like the logo & I don't like a matte helmet but something must be wrong with me because I like this helmet.I actually like the logo in one color like it is on this helmet.

oldschoolvikings Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 ..on another note...does anyone else want to see the Falcons go with a red helmet and keep the current logo?Personally, I think that would look great.I was hoping for red when I first heard about the Falcons change to their current helmet logo a few years back and haven't changed my mind. Black bird on red helmet would look SO much better than black bird on black helmet.As I have stated before, this IMHO is the best current look in football, at any level. It looks so good, in fact, I bet it would still look good with the current over-designed logo (minus the pointless second gray outline) and the current number font.

Gothamite Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Just a feeling, but I doubt that the NFL would let a team wear a one color logo like that on their helmet.If you guys checked out Colorwerx graphics of the Jaguars he shows the full colored primary logo on a helmet on a black background. So Im guessing thats what the helmet will look like. Correct me if Im wrong.Earlier in this thread a Jags fan posted pics of the team's promotional materials for the upcoming London game, which showed the new logo on a black helmet/facemask. FWIW.

Old School Fool Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I personally think they should do this...Keep the red, just eliminate it from the logo. I think it would look really slick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirwuf Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I have a feeling that if the Dolphins sign Mike Wallace on Tuesday (as expected), they are not going to want his big splashy introductory press conference to feature the old logo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theSLVRBCK Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Yesterday evening on local sports radio, one of the disembodied voices said he had it from a pretty reliable source that the Jags would be going to a mostly gold helmet with a "black section" and black mask and the new logo on the sides. He stated it would be about 2/3 gold with the rest black. He didn't do a great job at getting a good mental image across, I pictured it as a wider stripe in black, akin to the Seahawks new helmets.Take it for what it is I guess. I still just want a plain glass black helmet, black mask and the new logo with no keyline please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 When was the last time a team introduced a helmet logo that wasn't also their primary logo?The NFL is very particular about its helmets, given their importance to branding. No other sport is regularly visually identified solely by a piece of equipment - World Series lineups aren't depicted as a face-off between caps. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

Dnice Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 As an Atlana fan, I didn't like the 90's helmet that much because going by the helmet alone, you couldn't tell they wore red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Bengals, Browns, Vikings, Eagles, and Rams don't have their primary logo on their helmets. Just trying to be "that guy".Those have been around so long that those teams are still instantly recognizeable by those helmet designs, which serve as defacto alternate logos for each team (or in the Browns' case, primary.) Heck - the Rams would be better off using their helmet as a primary as opposed to their current ram mascot.When was the last time a team introduced a helmet logo that wasn't also their primary logo?The NFL is very particular about its helmets, given their importance to branding. No other sport is regularly visually identified solely by a piece of equipment - World Series lineups aren't depicted as a face-off between caps.Hence why there's no home, road, or alt helmet options in NFL - just throwback.

That is the Colts' actual primary logo. The Jags concept is basically a photo negative image of their logo. The Rams/Vikings/Eagles are different stories because their helmets provide different elements that are organic to the team names, but I think there's no way the NFL would let a team make a new logo and then put a color-swapped outline of that logo on its helmets.

rmackman Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Mike Hartline re-signing with the Dolphins, but look at the logo etched into the glass. That doesn't look like the current Dolphins logo. The tail is going behind the sun. Is this a legit leak? "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.
