    Those are hideous.

    And they look like a combo of the Seahawks/Cowboys road unis.

    The logo, the lettering and the unis all reek of CFL.

    Not to mention the players.

    The black unis were quietly junked right after Millen got fired.

    The black unis have been gone. Thank goodness ... looked a little too much like the Panthers. At least the Panthers are NFL-caliber ...

    All new NFL logos suck.

    Houston is the closest to the simple ones of the past.

    I have said this over and over, I don't think I could draw the logos of the Bucs, Panthers, Titans, Panthers, Broncos and a few others if you paid me.

    You ask me to draw the old Lions, Bears, Cowboys, Dolphins, Packers, Vikings, and the others, it's no problem.

    Nothing wrong with the Bucs and Panthers logos. First one is a MASSIVE improvement over Bucco Bruce. The Panthers is terrific because it masterfully encapsulates North and South Carolina.

    The Titans had to do something because Tennessee is not known for its oil, but it probably could have done better than a flaming thumbtack. Largely agree on the Donkeys ... the cyberhorse did away with one of the niftiest logos in the league. Probably should have left that one alone.

    I would have never known that about The Carolina logo.

    Wait, I still don't see it.

    Superimpose the Panthers logo on the link below:

    Is the neck of the Panther designed to resemble an upside-down North Carolina? I think I can make out the South Carolina outline in the cat's head.

    Now it has something to gouge out when they go 0-16 again.

    I never knew why Detroit screwed with the originals, the big silver numbers were tight. I hate these - it's like they're emulated the Jaguars.
    I mean the Patriots made their unis look LESS tough and they're suddenly unbeatable.
