After the Baltimore Raven's logo fiasco the NFL does not allow any fan submission entries to even be looked at

Guess Im the only one that thinks this thing is ugly.. I would never replace the white helmets... And a yellow fask mask is disgusting.. I reminds me of the redskins..

i think it's fantastic. and i love the yellow facemask as the beak. no way the cards would ever do something so radical, but it would be a breath of fresh air compared to the "changes" they made to the logo when they only made it more cartoonish.

And you don't think this design is cartoonish? I agree with the earlier statement that this looks very arena league. We already have the best helmet in the league (used to have the best uni too but the obligitory swoosh invasion ruined that).

I should also mention - please don't take offense - that the word was that the Cardinals did look at this idea when they came up with the new logo and uniforms, but rejected it for obvious reasons.

With the Ravens, the original "shield" logo was something that a fan (I think he was a security guard at the Ravens' HQ or something like that) submitted and the Ravens ran with it. When he asked for compinsation, they balked and the whole thing went to court.

Instead of paying the guy, they ditched the logo and came up with the current logo as a replacement.

NFL teams (or any other team in the four major sports for that matter), won't even so much as glance at an unsolicited design. NFL Properties handles all of that stuff.

This is terrible. It very arena league. Looks like the Iowa Barnstormers. It isnt very original at all.

Hence a version of the Nike swoosh appearing on new uniforms for the last decade?

Until the Cardinals say "Hello!" to the 21st century, and ditch the gray facemask for red, or black, my opinion is that the helmet will be the eysore of the new Cardinals look.

you know, usually when I click on these type of threads, I'm already expecting to see something just horrible, but that is an AWESOME looking helmet if you ask me. Really like it from the the head on view with eyes bearing down on you.

nice work.

my thoughts exactly! I thought, OMG, this is going to be crap...but I think it is hot.

the mask would never happen in bidwill land and the helmet looks nothing like a cardinal....very arena league.

I couldnt do better but im still gonna be a critic. I like our current logo a ton more.

It is our current logo.

I also remember seeing an all black helmet with the same eyes and eye placement...it looked pretty cool as well (who has two thumbs and loves black uniforms? This guy!)

I would also like to see this design with a white helmet grey/black facemask.

badass i would change it in a heartbeat voted for one very similar when we did the new unis years ago, excellent work, maybe when the old man dies someone will step up and pay you for your design because it can not be improved on, and the yellow facemask incorporating the beak is the icing on the cake
