Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

I think we all just expected more, and rightfully so, when you consider that they told us it was going to be such a long process so they could get it right. However, things like logos will likely evolve and in some cases be phased out entirely. It's all a little in your face right now because "We're Washington!" but also "We're the Commanders!" and "Hey remember we're not a new team, we're an old team reborn! so here are our Superbowls on this seemingly superfluous team crest to remind you of that!"

IMO I hope the W gets phased out, and the crest gets tweaked and becomes the primary logo.

The idea of a black alternate is great, but as is usually the case the execution is a lacking. Thought, or would have preferred, more burgundy highlights/ features in the black, personally I think black and burgundy are a good combo. I would have liked a half black half burgundy helmet similar to the fade pattern that the Jags have

Just asking a question here, as all of you are aware of they are "throw back uniforms" that teams wear .How will the new name and uniform change that, again just asking?

I'd imagine they will just use WFT as a throwback

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

Since that dumb rule about not having alternate helmets went away I want to see these again

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the alternate Black uniform take the place of the throwback for now?

John Keim mentions that a fourth uniform will be introduced in 2024 "with fan involvement"

They won't do the jerseys though which is the best part IMO.. Those were my favorite Skins jerseys

True and put the W on them,

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

Ultimately though I don't think there's any requirement that teams have a throwback, so the black alternate will be the special occasion uni I'm thinking

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

There is a rule and some of you might know this already as it recently came up with the Lions, it states that once a team redesigns it uniforms they cant change for 5 seasons.

The lions came up as the team's GM was asked about changing the all gray color rush ones. So these aren't going anywhere for at least that long.

Were the patches even authentic to the time period?

I would be fine replacing the patches but keeping the rest of the design.

Re: Welcome your Washington Commanders
 

It's the years that they put on the crest... The 83 Redskins lost in the SB. The 88 Redskins missed the playoffs and went 7-9. 92 was a 9-7 season and lost in the 2nd round to the 49ers. No one associates those teams as SB winners. Get what I'm saying?

When I see stuff like this, as well as the uniforms, it is pretty obvious that the people making decisions that's aren't from here. That white uniform is fine if you are a Cards fan. That red ain't us. That black ain't us. The core NFL teams don't mess w/ tradition. Do you see the Giants or Cowboys having all blacks? This is the shit Jacksonville does, or what college teams do. Hopefully they'll make adjustments and get it right. I doubt it. They're too stupid.

I also get the feel that they're looking to market to younger fans, which is probably smart cause most of my generation have checked out.

After yesterday I am just done. My emotions for the team are just dead. I'll still come on here cause I love talking football. But I just don't care what this team does anymore. Maybe that'll change in time but I just can't take it. I can't take Jason Wright lying to me. I can't take the Sean Taylor fuck up. I could go on and on... And most of all the losing and lack of playoff success and the inability to manage the QB position.
