I like it. If it were a slightly darker orange I would love it.

Looks like it has a brown center-stripe bordered by white ... I like it.

For the players' sake, I hope these new helmets don't leak.  (thread title)

Whatever image you posted isn't showing up for me - all I'm getting is a white background with an exclamation mark. Just wondering if its only my computer, or everybody's.

Its a YouTube video and it is showing up for me...search "FrazDav on Fox Sports Live' on YouTube if anyone else is having issues.

I love that. It is about as close to perfect as can be, in my opinion. +1... though I could live with the one that had that little splash of brown.

If that turns out to be the new helmet, I love it! I'm not a guy who likes change simply for the sake of change. But if I believe the change is for the better I support it.

It looks OK. Needs to be our official orange though, then it would look gr8.

Did anyone notice the hat in front of Farmer at the combine? New logo? I heard they debunked it-- as Strength and Conditioning's logo, hence the barbell in the Dawg's mouth.

As life long Browns fan of over 50 yrs now, my first thought about changing the uniforms was "leave them alone"..keep them just like they are.
After giving the idea some more thought, I've done a complete turn around. Many of the other teams have updated the look of their uniforms..it is kind of a trend in college and the pros.
Looking at it from a players viewpoint, I was on a team that changed uniforms and everyone on team liked the idea. There was just something about being the first team to wear the new uniform that made them, "our uniforms".
I believe our players might like the change and maybe it would be a positive move.
In a way, keeping the uniforms the same might be interpreted by some of our players as "the same old Browns".
It doesn't matter what a life long fan like me prefers..what matters is what the players themselves prefer..these are their uniforms.
What matters most to me is the way our players perform...just win baby!

While I do understand your point, the NFL is much different than amateur sports. What the fans think is first and foremost because the NFL is a business. Changing uniforms and logos is marketing. If the new merchandise doesn't sell, the whole thing is a flop and failure.
Much like you I was in "leave them alone" mode for quite a while. And if the uniforms look bad, I will wish they did leave them alone. But if the change is an improvement, I will welcome it. Some of the ideas I've seen lately look like an improvement to me.

If that's our helmet, you could slap our colors on the Jags uniform scheme and id be fine with it.. Hopefully they go for some a little more "simple" A nice clean dark brown, some highlights.. White jersey with brown and orange accents.. Oh and don't forget the gray!  *ducks behind wall*
Am I the only one that pronounces hyperbole "Hyper-bowl" instead of "hy-per-bo-le"?

It doesn't matter what they change, and this is my reason. I refuse to buy any new Browns gear of any sort until they start winning again.
If I refused to watch football from '96-98, then I can surely refuse to buy any new gear. My '94 jersey with the 75 year NFL patch is a classic, and it's still as nice and new now as it was when I bought it.

I seriously can't think of a worse logo. I have jokingly put up various pictures of poop as our new logo, I would rather have those than that logo.

Yes, would it be a total 100% shocker for this organization to make a bad call on something like that? As a fan of this city, I hope for the best but always expect the worst lol! I sure hope not though, seriously... yikes!

I didn't take it as a a jab at me by others, but rather the design. It's not my design, I just posted what I came across.
The 'Tom Landry' comment was a good one.

If that is the new logo we just multiplied our laughing stock if the league tenfold. That is awful.

The 'Tom Landry' comment was a good one. That image was floating around twitter all day yesterday. Even the Bull and Fox Show discussed it briefly on their program. It gained a bit of traction, honestly. I pray it's not one of the reported "many logos' to be released this morning.

Is it gonna be on tv or on the web.

My guess is the web. Specifically, Twitter and the Cleveland Browns website.

Alright final thoughts.....
Kevin Griffin (in charge of fan experience) just tweeted out a picture where the old logo was taken down and where the new one would go up.
At the end of his tweet, he used the slogan used many times last year #WeBarkTogether.
So, with that:
- #WeBarkTogether - Swagger - The Dawg Pound - The 'other' Browns mascot that is a dog.
I'm going for some sort of dog as the logo.
Ready to be wrong in t-minus 30 minutes.

I too like the Dawg Pound logo. The brown facemask is nice too. Not a huge change though, as expected.
