NFL meets Game of Thrones

While I don't follow the NFL, I saw this article found it interesting, and thought those of you who do follow the game would enjoy it. If it is posted in the wrong forum, feel free to move it. http://www.rsvlts.com/2015/10/13/nfl-as-game-of-thrones/

LOL at Dallas'.
 
For S.F., they should have made the nugget in the shape of San Francisco.

These are generally more visually compelling than some of the actual logos.

Definitely agree with the idea that many of them are really well done and are better than the logos of the real teams, and I also thought the Dallas emblem was fairly lame. It seems that the teams with animal based names had the best redesigns, but there were others like the Giants and Vikings that had very good heraldry. The Cleveland and Tennessee logos are much better than the real team insignia if you ask me.

As a Browns fan I agree.

Their hands were likely tied with the Cowboys logo. I can only imagine the shit storm they would have gotten from mouth breathing Cowboys fans had they done anything other than the star.

The got Washington all wrong.

For the Patriots, I think doing something with muskets (maybe in a crossed configuration, somewhat like Oakland's swords) would have been better than sticking a patch of Apollo Creed's boxing shorts on a shield.

Packers and Chargers were cartoonish IMO (Chargers made me think of Harry Potter) but overall damn good.
 
Personal favorites:
Giants (even though fuck them)
Washington
SF
Vikes
Steelers
Titans
Texans
J-E-T-S

Agreed, the Pats was one of the worst.  It reminded me of the original Captain America shield.

That'd be perfect. An "Native American" who's really European, to represent the team that claims their racist name is to honor a "Native American" coach who was really European.

Slight tangent, this was the spot the Austrian TV station which broadcast the Super Bowl used in 2014:

Who knew that a simple color change would make the Maryland flag look not-awful.
