Time for new Unis...?

Post by Bengals1 » Tue Apr 21, 2020 4:20 pm

Seems like everybody's tweaking their Unis this off-season. With the team getting a new QB and hopefully heading in a new direction, is it time to tweak or even replace, our Unis...?

Below are some examples I took off the net. Some are gaudy, some are ridiculous, some aren't much of a change at all. With not much to do until the draft starts Thursday evening I thought we could debate something besides why Mag's draft is way off base.... 8-)

Lets start with uniforms....

The very first 2 are money! Hell yeah
I was crazy back when being crazy really meant something.

A lot of good stuff there. I don't want to get rid of the stripes. I know some people hate them, but to me they are unique and give the Bengals a little bit different look than everybody else in the league.

I don't mind tweaking them though.

I agree with Joe, the first two are pretty great.

I also like the one a little ways down with the smaller stripes and the big Bengal head on the side right before the logos.

It's no secret I hate the stripes. To me they look like something you'd see on a kids pajamas. Ugh! :x

I also hate the lazy "B" logo. The tiger head they used shortly before the B took over was okay but I like the ones above that have a more aggressive look on the tigers face.

None of these helmet/uni combos thrill me. They all rely too much on a tiger stripe motif imo. I'd like to see an all black helmet with a more aggressive tiger head logo on it.

That being said, if we absolutely have to have striped helmets a black one with orange stripes or the white one with black stripes would be my choice.

Me too, I love the black and white but being an old reactionary I can’t help but say I prefer to stick. I am in the minority but don’t like the first two at all I’m afraid.

Why is AJ so huge in the 3rd one? :shock:

Also what's with the creepy tiger sperm thing? It's the logo above the old school rushing tiger.

There definitely needs to be a uniform change. I think the current white color rush needs to be the inspiration. It should be the full time away uni. Definitely have to keep the stripes on the helmets, but a fun chance could be giving them a mat finish.
