Disagree.Im the only one but the Pats should go back to the old logo.
Pat kinda looks like Marky Mark Wahlberg.
I mean that image looks fine up close but what about TV distances?
You can't actually make it out. If you didn't already know you were looking at Pat you'd have no idea what that was. It just looks like 2 blue blotches and an extra hole in the helmet The fact that the Patriots used white or silver helmets is not helpful either, because there is just no contrast to make Pat actually visible. And this was back in the 70s and 80s when there's no resolution worth a damn on most home television sets. I don't imagine it's any clearer from the stands.
Bottom line, there might as well be no logo at all on these helmets.
Now compare that to today's logo which has clean lines, contrasts well with the uniform colors we use, and is actually visible and discernable from the distances that cameras actually use to show football games, and can even be recognized from the nosebleed seats
Call me a bit of a crank but I'm perfectly happy with the team's logo situation.
