I mean I don't mind, but I was never offended, but it seems like on one hand we are not talking about native Americans but on some alternate Sundays we are back to representing them again? I mean...it this just a test drive to see if people freak out again? I mean I think Tuddy is awesome and all, but there is nothing/no one as respected as a native American chief in all his glory.



Playing halfway is what they are doing, it must be a transition of identity or something

I thought if they went warriors or commanders, we'd change to cammo and put a jet fighter or tank on our helmets and have a whole section of armed forces in uniform for free at every game and honor military at the half or something.



If commanders really "means" redskins, without "saying" redskins, I guess I get it, but then let's get rid of Tuddy and replace him with something related to the spear, not a dumbass pig with a military helmet. I mean how could you say redskins in another way? I have always been a warriors fan for that reason, plus you keep the w, which I actually have gotten used to.



Another point, it is the chiefs who play in arrowhead stadium, yet the arrowhead is on our helmet. I know I know, the 60s we had em. But we also had really cool gold helmets with the R based on Green Bay.



On a positive, the uniforms are fine, like the helmet triple stripe and gold cage.

My issue is the lack of team identity, what the hell is a commander?

Ask a 5 year old to draw a picture....they will draw Tuddy, arg

They spent last year building the Roman/Spartan version of the spear into the identity. I am good with that direction, and like Matty said, I think it comes to completion in the new stadium.

They're definitely leaning into the whole warrior/gladiator thing, nothing NA related is mentioned in any of the press about the new spear logo.

I agree with that. And I really do like the numbers and the bold borders that make them pop. I hadn't noticed the gold pants are back -- you only can see that when they show the design, not photos of players in actual uniforms, and I really like the gold pants (and would always prefer that to the all whites). It's a little hard to tell, but the helmets look a shade lighter than the burgundy jerseys; I hope I am wrong there. But overall, I am good with the unis. I cannot imagine anyone would say that they're not an improvement over what we just had last season (the white jersey's are not good, and the black never grew on me -- this black set is hands down better).
