I'll double down and say any of the expansion or relocated team's uniforms are not good. Baltimore is the best at a C-. The rest look like they came from a $100 logo design website.

Carolina is OK. Jags are terrible. Texans are awful - they should have been allowed to bring back the Oilers.

One that absolutely needs a refresh are the Bengals. Those helmets are really bad.

90’s and early 00’s expansion teams had the misfortune of coming to existence in an era of bad color choices

Yeah that is why I think Carolina’s is fine. The colors are more timeless than the purple of Baltimore and the teal of Jax.

I suppose Carolina's colors are fine, the logo is awful. Reminds me of logo of a karate studio in a strip mall. Maybe it would look better on the back of a black satin jacket.

I actually love the Bengals white helmets.

Not surprising as I strongly prefer the old Rams white/navy to the blue/yellow now

The logo was supposed to be an outline of both the Carolinas. It was rotated a bit a couple years ago and doesn’t really look like that now.

It was the era of edgy stuff, man, and we are all worse off for it.

I admit the white helmets are better.

Also like the white Bills helmets instead of the red. Kinda like the green Jets helmets better.

Honestly, there are more than a few logos that could use some updating.  They're stale and very dated.

Except the G and the C.  They can never change.

Yep. You had a lot of these older clearly hand drawn logos that had character as a result. (Pat the Patriot, Bucco Bruce, the Bronco, even the goofy old Dolphin with a football helmet).  Then instead of clever or classic looking, everything had to be FAST, AGGRESSIVE, MEAN looking.

Not just in football, NBA and MLB too. And those are arguably sadder cause you had a lot of clever/creative logos incorporating the city or the geography that got tossed for generic SERIOUS SPORTZ logos

Multiples have never been to the Super Bowl, Jets haven’t been there in 60 years. 2 appearances in a short team history, quite your yappin  ;D

Fair enough.

2015 is one of the most fun years I've had as a sports fan, and I am grateful for it. But it does seem like more than 8 years ago.

And as usual, a business decision spoiled all the fun.

That being said, the current Bucks logo is awesome.  And the original Bucks logo is awesome.

The stuff in between? Pure crap.

The good news is some baseball teams have worked up and gone back to better logos.

Original Jaguars logo.  I believe it had to change due to a copyright complaint by the car company.

If you watched the game, you know the fun had been spoiled long before then. But yes, that terrible decision put the final nail in the coffin.

They are absolutely gorgeous.  Have always thought so.  Honestly, can’t think of a powder blue throwback MLB jersey I don’t like.  Brewers, Cubs, even the Cardinals ones are unreal

Don't forget the Chargers' powder blues.
