It has been mentioned many times that folks would like to see a uniform revamp of sorts. One of the common themes is removing the silver altogether or at least going with a black helmet but I haven’t seen much thought of a blue helmet. What does the Huddle think about this concept?

 

My opinion is that it certainly pops with the white unis.

I think we should eliminate the silver-- Our helmet looks too much like New England's helmet.  Then you have the lions, Raiders, etc. 

A black helmet would make us look like the Jags. 

I think our helmet logo would look good on a white helmet.  I think the silver looks stupid with our all-white uniforms that have no silver on them anywhere.

I dunno. I would love to lose the silver out of the uniforms.  We have too many colors.  3 should be tops if you include white.

I'd be okay with it. It looks a little like an arena league helmet, but I'm sure it would grow on me.

I'm also over the silver helmet. It's too retro - I see that spangly ass helmet and just think grainy Dallas Cowboys footage from the 60s-  and doesn't go at all with our color scheme.

Black, agreed would look terrible with out white unis, and a black logo on a black helmet? Don't like white. Looks too much like Indy.

This at least is a color that would be uniquely our own. And in a team that badly need a new identity, or rather has been thrust into finding one, I think making the change would be representative of our organization; new look, eliminating the mistakes of the past, and innovating rather than trying to copy other teams.

I’m not sure white would work either but it would be the only look I’d be willing to give a shot but the silver helmet should stay. Black or blue helmet would look freaking STUPID. 

As far as jerseys go, if they’re ever going to change them I hope it’s very subtle. Maybe remove the stripes over the shoulders and just go with a very clean look or add a couple stripes around the sleeves with the logo over top. 

Clean and classic is what works long term. This blue/black helmet and new stupid nike jersey designs are having team recycle through jerseys every couple years.

      Dan Morgan: Panthers will pickup BY’s 5th year.

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah it is wasted for everyone. Even AT, who he fed, felt like it was wasted. Was done with it.  The resources…  surely as a long term Panthers, he put it on a side track that does not lead anywhere but right back where we were. If we had healthy CBs vs TB in ‘22 we could have gotten into the playoffs with a losing record. We essentially blew all of that time, money and assets to do a 360. 3 fuging years.    Now we are supposed to wait 5 years for him to make mid. Top 15 ranking. I am not sure they would have waited 5 years for Joe Montana. You think Belichick waits 5 years for Brady? Not me. And we are in the era of the cheap slotted salary for drat picks era, where it is supposed to be easier to move on. You have to want to though and you have to be in charge with a clue.  He has had flashes that lasted a whole game, a couple of times. I could stretch that to 4 maybe but I am not even sure of that. Maybe. He has had substantially more flashes that lasted a half or quarter, and all that combined doesn’t stack as high as his weak performances.  It is maddening.

      Well, I guess we know which team showed up.

      Should Canalas bring someone else in to call offensive plays?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is how I see it...You can talk to the QB until 15 seconds before the play clock expires.  There are reasons to believe that Canales is spending a lot of time gathering information from those in better position to make the decisions.  Have you noticed how often we break the huddle between 15 and 13 seconds remaining?  I have a theory... 1. Canales is on the sideline.  His view of the field is not as good as the OC, who is sitting in the box in the sky--he can see the defense, spacing, substitutions, etc.  This means that Canales must get information from up top before selecting a play. 2. Canales has to spend time during the week with the defense, special teams, etc. in addition to the offense.  The OC is with the offense all week.  He knows the plays that were run well in practice--he knows the nicks and dings they might be complaining about--he knows their questions and input about certain plays, formations, etc.  Canales may be aware, but not AS aware.  In other words, his hand is not on the pulse as much as the OC.  It is likely that, during the week, the OC is the person answering questions and making decisions.  On Sunday, Canales steps in and makes less informed decisions. 3.  Canales likes the moniker "QB whisperer."  He may feel more confident being the voice in Bryce's helmet because he is Bryce's mentor.  Maybe he has a calming effect and maybe he thinks he can keep Bryce focused.  MAYBE he is not the best play caller, but he calls plays and mentors Bryce.  Maybe that is why he calls plays. Just a theory--but Canales could be the play caller because Bryce is the QB and he is trying to literally whisper into the QB ear.
