3. Bring back the 2003 designs. They are GOAT and it's pointless to try anything else.
That sounds about right for this org

Really like the uni itself but not a fan of the helmet. Joe Goodberry tweeted out some options that he liked and I think they are pretty sweet!

By far the best one I've seen so far.

I'm interested to know if they get rid of the "B" logo, or at least keep it off the uniform. It's my least favorite of all the Bengal logos.
I'd like the tiger head or full body tiger back, but I doubt they do that.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.
Sorry for Party Rocking!

I'm sorry, but all of these companies trying to be cute on social media is so lame. I always think of that picture or meme or whatever with Steve Buscemi ("How do you do fellow kids?") when I see stupid posts like these.
Nobody is following the Bengals (or Wendy's, or Arby's, or Ford, or whoever) for humor and for them to pretend like their primary objective isn't making as much money as possible. Just announce your new cheeseburger, or you new car, or whatever you have regarding your football team, or shut the hell up.
This isn't cool. You know what's cool? Winning football. Leave this stupid crap to teenagers.

Got to hand it to Mike Brown, ever the shrewd business man! Gets everyone to buy a Burrow jersey last year and then designs a new jersey to make everyone want to get a brand spankin' new redesigned Burrow jersey! Bravo Mr. Brown....BRAVO!

I'd just like to hear what the news is. And if you're going to announce it later then a simple "We will have an announcement at X time" would suffice, and it would provide me with actual info.
I just don't need the notoriously old school Bengals to tweet like a teenager for it to peak my interest. It's desperate and cringy, just like every other company that goes out of their way to pretend to be cool, and not just some filthy rich company that is trying to sell you something.
Sorry, I'm not someone that finds the Wendy's Twitter account hilarious, or wants to see them "clap back" on the Burger King account.
To each their own, I'm not saying this is the WORST thing ever or anything like that. I just personally find it annoying and kinda disingenuous.
They hired a new younger person to be in charge of their social media accounts, to reach out to younger audiences. You know, people not old enough yet to yell at people to get off their lawns.....

I dunno, reminds me of the browns.
Personally, I hope the guy who did the Eagle Fang logo steps in and we get a kick ass new logo and everything. Like a tiger with wings and a sick spiked tail.

I try not to be too negative, but this was one of my first thoughts when this news went from speculation to reality.
But I guess now I have (and everyone else too) an OG Burrow Jersey. Woohoo?

Well, they do new kits every season in soccer. NBA teams are doing new jerseys every season. The Bengals should be tweaking jerseys every 4-5 years for the revenue stream.

I prefer the "B" logo over the poorly drawn tiger head and leaping tigers. Those tigers look like they belong on the back of cereal box for how to draw a tiger for children.

Could this be a throwback jersey so we can use the old helmets?

I just looked at his account, and by this tweet it appears he is, in some way, working on the new ones ( I was wrong).

They're uninspiring and in my eyes ugly as hell I hope they don't use this guy I've seen so many better concepts on Twitter

I'd rather it be simplistic and retro than ugly and futuristic
