New Buccaneers Logo

Compared to the Vikings and Jaguars overhauls of last year, it seems like the Bucs have kept this on the down-low. The first I heard was earlier this week, when they announced that Sapp and McCoy would be revealing their redesigned helmet and logo on Feb 20.

The changes to the logo / helmet are not significant. The logo is quite a bit bigger, and the skull a little nastier, but the theme is unchanged (phew). I'm guessing they felt the need to exaggerate the logo a little as the detail of the skull and crossbones are lost at any type of distance.

The face mask is chrome, which I like, but I'm sure you won't really notice.

In addition to revealing the new logo, it was also revealed that they are changing their uniforms - to be revealed on March 5. I'm guessing (hoping) the tweaks will only be minor.

I was hoping they would go with a design that could be used with the creamsicle jerseys

You and me both man. The creamsicle jerseys seem to be a love / hate thing, but I'm definitely on the love side of that divide. I'm glad they changed to the red / white / pewter look, but the creamsicle throwbacks definitely looked amazing coming out 1 or 2 times a year.

Guess I'll just have to make do with the creamsicles of years gone by...

I got excited when I saw this before the release.

That actually looks pretty good. Guessing it was just someone in photoshop (the same as all the Nike uniforms, prior to them taking over from Reebok)?

As much as I love the creamsicles, I think I like the novelty value as much as anything. As sweet as that helmet would have looked with the creamsicle jersey, I think sticking with the pewter and red (which presumably they will do) is the right call.

What happened to the Saints' throwback last year. I was always a big fan of that look. I don't remember seeing it last year, and not sure the new helmet rule would have been an issue?

I think they went superstitious since they introduced the black on black for home they haven't lost while wearing them.

I like it, except for the Crome face mask. I'm not sure why cause I'd thought I'd like it, but the new logo size looks great. Looking forward to seeing the new uni's.
