I like the new helmet.  Blue is much better that the white helmet they had before.

Really? The white looked clean. This feels alittle heavy handed. Also playing up the “sword” on the jersey isn’t all that nice in my opinion.

I feel like there are about 16 teams in the league who keep their same uniform and 16 teams who keep changing their uniforms to try and be the 17th best looking uniform in the league.

Like compared to GB, Phi, Pit, NE, CHI, SF, Dal, NYJ, NYG, WAS just off the top of my head that Titans uni sucks.

The Ravens signed Robert Griffin III to a one-year deal this week, but not before he drew interest elsewhere. The Jaguars auditioned the quarterback on Monday.

Marquette King signed with the Broncos, but not before hearing from some other interested teams. The Giants were among the clubs to reach out to the former Raiders punter.

NFL Combine medical rechecks take place late next week and Michigan’s Maurice Hurst was not requested back for them, Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. That is a positive sign for the defensive lineman after he was found to have a heart condition during the Combine.

Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson may have erred by opting to go through the NFL draft process without an agent, Joel Corry of CBSSports.com writes. Jackson will avoid paying a portion of his rookie deal to a representative, but in an effort to save some cash, he could be hurting his draft position, which would negate the savings on the standard 1.5% fee.

Looks like something from a stupid video game

Agreed. Should've stuck with a white helmet and moved the jerseys to block numbers. Granted it's personal preference, but I prefer a clean looking jersey without all the jazz.

The pecking order of the NFC.

The real deals:  Philadelphia Eagles, Los Angeles Rams, Minnesota Vikings, Green Bay Packers, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints.

<The Packers believed they were somewhat balanced until they lost Rodgers. Green Bay was ranked first in this exercise a year ago and Rodgers' return should have them right back in the mix, like the rest of the decade. Minnesota has every right to dream big after adding Cousins and getting running back Dalvin Cook back from injury, but the Vikings are barely favorites in their own division>

Don't forget about us:Carolina Panthers, Seattle Seahawks, Dallas Cowboys.

An uphill climb: Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Detroit Lions, New York Giants, San Francisco 49ers, Washington Redskins.

Rebuilding: Chicago Bears, Arizona Cardinals.

You agree?

when you have a ticket waiting list that exceeds the population of your city...you don't need no stinkin gimmicks

No... you dont. But all you have to do is look at the sales numbers of NFL jerseys and compare them to the NBA and owners should be fully aware of how much more potential money is out there in jersey sales. Color Rush for example.. obviously all for merchandising.

Has anybody ever seen the $$ earned for the Packers color rush uni's ?

The All white is pretty  weak in my view, did Packer Nation step up and buy lots of those ? I'm guessing no, but I've never seen any actual numbers trumpeted
