Why is the Super Bowl logo this identical to last year's?

This is something that has bothered me for a while now.

Typically, each Super Bowl has it's own logo which makes it's unique and gives distinct memories to those who were a part of it.

When i see the SB38 logo, it reminds me of that great season. I hope Goodell hasn't screwed around with something else that wasn't broken and crapped on it.

Anyone know?

They've sterilized the SB logos going forward, starting with SB XLV, I believe. I think the only aspect of the logo that will change from now on is the stadium to reflect the venue.

edit: Yep:

This now confirms the NFL’s previously stated plans to create a consistent brand for their jewel event, the only differences between the logos for XLV and XLVI are the roman numerals and a change of host stadium.

If they plan on keeping it, that's the final straw with Goodell for me personally.

It's not a huge deal, but it is the straw that broke the camel's back.

Chances are they just wanted some "brand recognition" they could cash in on, and didn't matter if it stole the individuality and claim to fame that those teams who win the SB earn.

Sorry brah, those don't invoke a "consistent, iconic identity" like the Olympic Rings! [/Goodell]

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either, QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.

      This year, there's been enough positive talk from core players, free agents, and coaches to where I believe the culture building and momentum is more important than fighting for a worse record.
