FunnyHeadlines Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Well Bucs fans, at least this:Looks better than that:I think everyone has made their point about the fact the Jags helmet looks like crap I so which it could be changed but we've still got 4 more years.I'm still surprised that the NFL allowed Jacksonville to go through with that helmet design. As draconian as the NFL's uniform rules can be, you'd think they would have stepped and told Jacksonville to cut that crap out immediately. I mean, the rest of Jacksonville's uniform set isn't the best thing ever, but an all black helmet would have at least made it a serviceable set.Anyway, after letting things sink in after a few days, I'm okay with the new Bucs helmet. The chrome seems understated enough and works well enough with the helmet itself. I think I would have preferred a smaller logo to the giant version they went with though. Curious to see how the whole set turns out. I think it's been said that it'll be slight changes overall which would fit with what was done to the helmet and logos.It's because nike is now the official jersey manufacturer. My prediction is that we get a complete college-ification of the NFL within 10 years, not that I want that to happen, but that's just the way it looks like it's going.

I wouldn't rule any of those teams out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezus_Ghoti Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 You know... I never appreciated the old Bucs logo. The new one is really forcing me to see the old one in a new light, and now I miss it. Way better than the new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 You're forgetting that the Packers very nearly changed once already to a look that would have been dark green and metallic gold,Yeah, but that's because they'd been very bad for thirty years. Even then, the fanbase freaked out at the very prospect. And since Wolf considered and rejected that uniform change, we've had twenty years of competitive football, two more Hall of Game quarterbacks and two more World Championships. Every additional Super Bowl the Packers win further cements Vince Lombardi's uniform (hell, it also cements Forrest Gregg's tweaks, which I can't stand). That was the time to have done it. Now the uniform represents not one but two (and arguably three) periods of glory. It's not going anywhere. At this rate we'd need closer to fifty straight years of sub-.500 football in Green Bay before you can even bring the Packers back into this conversation. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

I'm impressed with Tampa Bay.Well, they managed to keep the logo from leaking until about an hour before the unveiling. Tampa's security is fantastic.
