I've mulled this over and decided I just want a new uniform. It can be a call back to the '80's uniforms, the 'Bengals' helmet era, or something totally new and unique. I'm good either way. I'd just like to see a change for the Burrow lead Bengals era.

the designs and the color blend are almost identical, it goes beyond the similar black & dark brown hues which on camera look the same from far away. Remove the "bengals" wording and u got a brown.
Sport designs were very conservative back in the day. The NFL would definitely not approve of such similarities in today's uniforms.

I love it. Someone took a stab at modernizing it, but I gotta say I prefer the original one.

That’s one of the worst looking helmets I’ve ever seen. Looks like Chester Cheetah.

My bet is that, if and when they do get new unis, they are way more likely to go back to the past than to some "futuristic" nonsense that will look clownish in three years like the softball costumes they wear now.

I'm hoping they base it off the 80's uniforms with some modern touch. Our current uniforms arent that great.

I'd be okay with that too.

Can someone explain to me, someone who's used to British football teams releasing three new tops every year, how often NFL teams release new jerseys? Is there a rule against releasing jerseys on a yearly basis?

All I know is they are allowed a home, away, alternate, and sometimes a color rush. The NFL has been slow to catch on to Nike at Oregon and the NBA's money grab in having 37 unis... It's so bad in the NBA it usually takes me 90 seconds to figure out who is playing.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
