I guess we can stop all that "new jerseys" talk

You left out a few parts:

So, apparently, the jerseys will look the same, barring any changes that would be made in the ordinary course of changing jerseys. Of course, the shift to Nike could cause some teams to decide to make the change.

Last year, for example, Seahawks president Peter McLoughlin said that the team will use the occasion to re-do their duds. “There will be no changes for ’11, for the upcoming season,” McLoughlin told Dave “Softy” Mahler of KJR. “2011 is the final year for the Reebok deal with the NFL, and starting in 2012 we’re going to be going with a Nike jersey and a Nike design. So we’ve actually met with Nike, and I think we were the first NFL team to meet with them, and we had a fascinating session with them. Pete Carroll was in the room, John Schneider, all kinds of people, and we’re looking at all kinds of new designs, and new kinds of jerseys, and we’re talking about a throwback for sure. So there’s a lot of creative stuff in the works right now.”

The Seahawks are already planning to change uniforms when Nike takes over. There's a chance that going to Nike could influence other teams to go in a new uniform direction as well.

Basically all the article was saying is that Nike won't be able to come in and completely override each teams uniforms without the team first approaching them about it.

And here's the article, in case anyone is interested.

At Panther Talk, Danny Morrison (a pretty good authority on the subject) told me that our uniforms will look exactly the same from 10 ft away after the switch to Nike.

Like the PFT article said, I suspect the changes will mostly be with the materials used... get ready for some spandex (which is why I got my authentic Cam Reebok jersey before the change).

This would be a great opportunity to further the "new era" that we're seeing. New coach and stable QB for the first time in a long time (since '02/'03), great time for new uniforms. I really hope the FO takes this opportunity. No new logo, but new uniform design and get rid of the ugly ass silver please.

From the douche site that will not be mentioned

Except in the portion you quoted...

I don't know that I wanna see Travelle Wharton and Jordan Gross in spandex :eek:

      Yea when teams see a gun charge they rightly pause but this seems like a big misunderstanding.

      Sorry man you lost me at "Teppers have evolved as owners". Limped into playoffs at 8-9 not even above .500 Tepper is trash as an owner bro and that's not even a discussion at this point. 37-83 w/l ratio. Nuff said.... Morgan tho, he's cooking and it ain't cuz of Teppers leadership

      D-Mo on FA & some of my general thoughts

      After listening to Morgan's presser twice, I came away with some key beliefs. First of all, I don't think he's a bullshitter. What you see is what you get. When he says something, he means it.  The Teppers really have evolved as owners. Morgan has mentioned how they're easy to work with--a pleasure to work with a few times now. There seems to be a good relationship between all of them (and include Dave Canales on that). We'll see if it lasts. Yes, no one wanted to come to Carolina with the previous management, but that seems to have changed. The team signed arguably the top Edge, LB and OT on the market, two of them on pretty good deals and one on what I'll say is "not a bad one." And, credit Sunshine Dave "Flowers and Cotton Candy" Canales for helping to change the culture. Morgan mentioned getting guys--and I'm paraphrasing--that are not only great football players but great people. Don't look for us to be acquiring any James Pearce types anytime soon, just saying. We'll see if that holds true in the future. Dan Morgan really has set up the Panthers to take the BPA/BAP. He mentioned it at least a couple of times, and he doesn't seem pressured to pinpoint a particular position. He just wants quality players that will help the team. This is how it's going to be (to your joy or dismay, probably for as long as he's here), and personally I love it. Many of us know how Morgan was when he played: aggressive! That's what he's going to be when making acquisitions. He explicitly said it, and emphasized it. All avenues are open (think FA, waivers...the draft)! Personally, as long as it's controlled aggression and not reckless aggression, I love it.  On KP: "Mobility is big in this league."  He basically says if another QB is the BPA while drafting--we're going by our board, people--we're going to add them.        ...
