Bengals last Sunday and are heading into an unfortunately early bye week with a lot to be happy about.NFL experts are starting to believe this team is pretty good http://www.carolinapanthersteamonline.com/daryl-williams-jersey , as evidenced by this week’s power rankings. Following their win over the Bengals, the Panthers find themselves in the top ten of most experts’ lists as they head into their week off.I have to say most because—as always—there has to be one hater in the group:ESPNSure, being No. 11 isn’t that bad, but come on man... can’t we have a clean sweep of the top ten for once? Here are the rankings from the better experts who place the Panthers firmly where they belong...NFL.comUSA TodaySporting NewsBleacher ReportSB NationWhat do you think, Panthers fans? Are the Panthers a top-ten team? Why or why not?Discuss.It’s time for the Panthers to upgrade their uniforms When the Panthers updated their uniforms in 2012, they made a few subtle changes to the logo, word font and shade of blue, and a lot of fans were disappointed at the meager effort to bring the franchise out of the firm grasp of 1973. But hey Youth Ian Thomas Jersey , at least we didn’t make our jerseys look like a big ass alarm clock, right?Charles McDonald from SB Nation spoke with artist Nate James about which uniforms in the NFL could use an upgrade, and James broke down the uniforms into three categories: Outdated Modernism, Nike Hatchet Jobs, and Fauxbacks. For the sake of this column, let’s examine what James had to say about the Panthers uniforms (yes — the Panthers are in need of a uniform upgrade) and then make our own suggestions of how new owner David Tepper can improve on a design that hasn’t changed much since 1995.Here’s what James had to say about the Panthers, who were included in the Outdated Modernism category:I think James makes a good point. The Panthers have a good base to work with. A few subtle changes would really make a difference, though. But what should those changes be? Let’s name a few Authentic Ryan Kalil Jersey , shall we?Can we please get a black helmet?This shouldn’t be that hard to accomplish. Just take the silver ones and paint them black. I don’t know about y’all, but I’ve never seen a panther with a silver head. We’ve all seen the image below on CSR, but wouldn’t that make an amazing helmet for the Panthers to wear? Please, Mr. Tepper... make this happen.nikeblog.comDrop the silver pants and use black/white/blue onesA lot of fans love the all-black look that debuted in 2012, and while I am notorious on this website for thinking it’s overrated, I do believe that if a majority of fans want the team to wear all black, they should at least entertain the idea. I’ve also defended my position by saying that the black pants would look better if they made a few changes, which brings me to my next suggestion...Remove the comically large stripes on the pants1995 called Authentic Luke Kuechly Jersey , and they want their wide tapered stripes back. The Panthers’ uniforms would look 1000% better if they did something about those ugly stripes on the pants. Literally any change would be an improvement, but here’s one suggestion:the313connection.wordpress.comIsn’t that so much better? In fact, those could be the actual uniforms if not for two small changes: the stripe on the helmet and the number/letter font. Speaking of which...Update the number font to the 21st centuryIt’s not 1973 anymore. We don’t need to use standard block numbers on the jersey. We need something fresh, something different. Something... unique. Something like this:sportslogos.netThis also goes back to the point above about changing the striping — the Panthers could follow this template and the uniform would look a lot better. These small changes would go a long way towards updating the Panthers’ uniforms while keeping the elements that have been present from the beginning. And like James said, they don’t need to do much... just a small update will be sufficient.What do you think, Panthers fans? How would you upgrade the Panthers uniforms?
