Arrow 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

First change known for 2014, the TB Bucs are getting a new logo and helmet.

Shame, because they have one of the best helmets in the league in my opinion and it can only go downhill from there.

Announcement by team expected Thursday.

I'll give y'all a lil, helmet has a #ChromeGrill


Greg Auman‏@gregauman
Bucs announce that Thursday night's big unveil on NFL Network is not only new helmet but also team's first new logo since 1997.


That second "tweet" from Sapp is disturbing. It has a "chrome grill".

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

Yeah, that "chrome grill" part has me a little worried. And I'm not sure why they're making changes either. Those Bucs helmets, the whole uniforms, actually, are pretty sweet. The Vikings and Jaguars improved their helmets last year though, so there's hope.

Interesting to see what the new logo looks like.

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

If they just take the skull/swords off the flag and use that by itself, that works.




Here are the rejected helmets from the last re-design. The bottom-left would be my choice for a new logo. I also hope they work orange as a prominent color back into the uniform but now I'm fearing this:

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

Rumor only.

Tonight at 8PM is the announcement.

New Bucs helmet and logo - is this Tampa Bay's new look? - Orlando Sentinel

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

Sexy...but how well would that go with the uniforms? I thought they were making only subtle changes to the uniforms. It's going to take a drastic change to match those up.

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

Who knows...Sapp said a "chrome grille" and that scares me.

I'm expecting a white helmet because of that new throwback rule that says you can't have a separate helmet. They can still change decals and facemasks.

Nike also had trouble matching and producing a few colors because they use different fabrics than Reebok. TB's pewter was one along with the Saints' gold (why they wear panty hose-looking pants now). Green was another issue and that's why the Packers kept their old model (no toilet seat collars) and why the Jets have jerseys with 50 shades of green.

Another rumor/concept.

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

Logo is a little big, but otherwise looks pretty good including the facemask.

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

Holy crap that's huge. It resembles Warren Sapp...too big. At least they didn't go all Jagaurs-ugly on us.

Glad they kept the pewter though, there are too many white helmets already.





















Logo is an upgrade, but I do like the old wordmark better.

Seems to change colors in light too. Goes from pewter to platinum, almost chrome.










New ship logo, upgrade.

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

They should look pretty sharp on the field. I was worried they'd ruin one of the best looks in the NFL but they managed not to screw up.

Re: 2014 NFL Uniform Thread

Wonder if one day all thirty-two teams will be getting new uniforms since this is the 21st century.
