I'm still not a fan of the dark walls. As long as I'm nit picking, I'm also not sold on the new font for BRONCOS in the end zone, either. But that's just me.

Perhaps they will grow on me. If we win 8 games, I probably will care much less........ LOL.

Exactly. The new looks and new approaches do set the new regime up as new, different, distinctive. If that new "feel" becomes associated with success, the newness will be accepted as a good thing. If not, well you know what happens to things associated with failure.

We are in a situation set up as new and different.

It's just like the sketch.... ugh :(

Don't think the logo will show up very well on a TV screen.

But hey, at least there are no oars painted on the field.

Yet.

Ugh!

The field looks great except for the midfield logo. I personally would prefer the gold block 'W' with the Bronco logo on it, like our helmets were last year.

Is Mr. Whinny to assume that the new logo will also be on our helmets? No doubt that there will be a plethora of t-shirts, sweatshirts, flags, etc. for sale with the fancy-pantsy horse on them. Will we have a new Buster that looks just like the sketch? (Kinda scary thought.)

Are we positive that's the new horsey logo?

Or is it a Rorschach Test? I believe I see an x-rated encounter happening on the 50 yard line. Oh ... NOT a Rorschach Test? Well, allrighty then.

Seriously though, it's a new, modern, speedy-looking interpretation of a Bronco. No objection here, other than it's not really well defined which makes it hard to see.

here's the helmet, Whinny

Thanks!

Not too bad. Looks kinda mean. Is it a gelding? *snort*

As to the stadium, I like the looks of the black walls. But isn't that going to elevate the temperature even more down on the field for those September games?

I think it looks great!!!! As for the new font for BRONCOS, I like that too. To me that is a subtle change that makes things look updated a new with the times, without losing identity. And I think the black walls are also pretty sharp. But whoever mentioned it is correct, they are gonna have to be touched up regularly.

Couldn't open the link to the midfield logo (office filter blocked it) but I look forward to seeing how everything ends up coming together.

I'm with most of you on here. I like everything but the midfield logo. The logo looks great on the helmets, but it just doesn't translate well to the field.

The logo view from the stands is lacking. My first impression was of a sick dying bird.

is the midfield logo done? it looks like it needs a white outline.

It sure needs something.

I think it's done though...

At least we're not Minnesota:

this was my exact thought this morning

Holy Crap General, when I first looked at that, I thought it was a block W on our new field that they had F'd up.

Drove by the stadium today, but didn't have time to stop and check out the midfield logo. But what I could see driving by, the turf and the new paint job looks good.

Come on locals somebody provide a pic of the finished or at least updated field...please

Very Cool. Thank you! I've got to say I don't really mind the silhouette, makes it stand out from the Denver logo a bit more.
