George Clooney What GIF

You got to follow this up, is that a real panther prototype or just one of the 700 High school panther helmets?? 

That's legit the first prototype of what the Panthers logo was going to look like in the infant stages of putting the expansion franchise proposal together for the NFL.

With the possibility of the Panthers wearing alternate helments, should they go ahead change the uniforms as well?
 
 
 
I would like to see a new uniform. We’ve pretty much had the same/similar looking uniform from our inception.

we need to go with pinstripes like the Irish did.

Heard it here first.  On second thought, I got this from someone else.

Notre Dame Football: Shamrock Series Uniform Rankings, 2019 Edition - Page 3

 

The pinstripes might attract some New York Yankee baseball  fans and help convert them to becoming Panther fans. 🙂

I've heard pretty consistently that the uniforms will get an overhaul for the 2022 season.

The vast majority of uniform, logo, helmet updates are worse than the prior. Less is more, keep it simple, no dumb poo please.

But it's important to know the only point is to sell more merchandise. Nobody gives a poo whether it's an actual upgrade.

I must be the only one that likes our uniform colors and design. I dont feel we need change I've seen change for the sake of change and it fail miserably

I like not changing uniforms or helmets. I like the NY of the Giants, the C on Chicago’s, the bolts on San Diego , Miami’s etc. Traditional looks aren’t bad.

Exactly. It is all about making money

I am going to say what everyone is thinking.  Hear me out.  OK, a "fur" helmet since we are the Panthers, and they have fur.  You can have ears, to help when you are on the road and can't hear the snap count.  They are warm, for those games in Green Bay and stuff.  This could lead to a tail on the back of the pants, but I fear that might be borderline tacky or as some might say, "Stupid."  But hey, did they call they guys who invented pay toilets and the Segway stupid?  So let's not judge.  Growwwl.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
