The Minnesota Vikings are already awaiting a new luxurious stadium, but what if they also revised the helmets, uniforms, and logo?
A number of devoted fans and designers have taken their shot at redesigning the Vikings helmets, uniforms and logos.
Could you imagine Adrian Peterson smashing through the offensive line wearing one of these options?
Featured are a number of Minnesota Vikings’ helmets, uniforms, and logo designs. Some are interesting options that fans may like and others may strike  a nerve with some fans.
Images are by multiple authors including, Charles Sollers, a photographer from Missouri for Rivals.com. By now you have probably seen some of Sollers work as he also has provided numerous images of college helmets and uniforms.
Also featured are the new Nike Pro Combat uniform designs by Brandon Moore. Brandon Moore is a graduate of Full Sail University with an Associates of Science degree in Graphic Design. He specializes in logo design and branding.
The gallery also displays work by Mr. Design Junkie, who has created numerous creative images that spread around the internet.
If your images are shown please contact us so we can give credit where credit it due.
The main difference between the NFL and College Football is the sense of tradition. From the Pittsburgh Steelers and Dallas Cowboys to the Oakland Raiders and Buffalo Bills of the AFL, the NFL has tradition, but would something like this ruin it?
Which are your favorites?

Ben Roethlisberger: Player Pro-files
Ben Roethlisberger: Player Pro-files
Ben Roethlisberger as tough as they come
Ben Roethlisberger, quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers, is nicknamed “Big” because he is a load at 6’5 and 241 pounds. When it comes to the quarterback position, one does not really think of the word tough anymore due to the NFL changing the rules to protect the quarterback from being hurt. The quarterback being the marquee position on the field, it is…

Philadelphia Eagles 2014 Mock Draft: 2 Rounds
Philadelphia Eagles 2014 Mock Draft: 2 Rounds
The Philadelphia Eagles must build upon the success of last season, but in order to accomplish that they must improve the defense.
Round 1, Pick 22: Jeremiah Attaochu, DE/OLB, Georgia Tech One area of concern with the Philadelphia Eagles on defense was finding a pass rusher who could also cover well. Thus limiting the ability of offenses such as the New Orleans Saints from exploiting those…

Redskins' Kirk Cousins is overrated
Redskins’ Kirk Cousins is overrated
Overrated, to overestimate the merits of; rate too highly
Such is the case of Washington Redskins back up quarterback Kirk Cousins.
Kirk Cousins is overrated. Drafted as a fourth-round pick in 2012, a total of three rounds after starter Robert Griffin III, Kirk Cousins expressed his willingness to be traded. Like any competitor, he wants the opportunity to compete and sitting behind RG3 doesn’t…

2014 Mock Draft 1.0: The Quarterback Shuffle
2014 Mock Draft 1.0: The Quarterback Shuffle
My first official 2014 Mock Draft is finally here. With free agency kicking off next week, it will be very interesting to see how not just my mock draft, but all other mock drafts change. Teams will be looking to fill holes prior to May but what would it look like if the draft was now?
The title of this mock is highly appropriate as it was tough to find a spot for the quarterbacks.  Many seem to…

Manti Te'o not living up to expectations, or is he?
Manti Te’o not living up to expectations, or is he?
Manti Te’o hasn’t been the impact player he was for Notre Dame, but I’m not sure the San Diego Chargers  or anyone expected that right away.
After an off-season full of embarrassment including a fake girlfriend and a blowout championship loss,Te’o missed the first three games of the season with an ankle injury. However, he started every week after at inside linebacker.
He ended the 2013 NFL…

Will the Cowboys go offensive line again in the draft?
Will the Cowboys go offensive line again in the draft?
The Dallas Cowboys must have a slam dunk draft to rise above all the distractions of owner Jerry Jones. They have the receivers, quarterback, running back and decent pieces on defense, but something doesn’t click. That’s what the 2014 NFL draft will be about for the Dallas Cowboys. To find that one or two players that can push this team to above .500.
Round 1, Pick 16: Gabe Jackson, OG,…

Free agency primer for the Jacksonville Jaguars
Free agency primer for the Jacksonville Jaguars
After a promising finish to the 2013 season, the Jacksonville Jaguars are looking to add some talent to a club that went 4-12 overall and 4-4 down the final eight games. First-year Head Coach Gus Bradley led the team to that record with a modest, at best, collection of talent. Looking to find a base for the talent and add to it, GM Dave Caldwell will have his hands full this offseason as…

Dolphins shopping 1st round draft pick
Dolphins shopping 1st round draft pick
The Miami Dolphins traded up in the 2012 NFL Draft to pick Dion Jordan in the first round, now a year later, they’re in discussing into trading a young promising defensive player. Why are they shopping around someone they traded up for? What is his value? Who would take him?
Dion Jordan was a high draft pick going into the draft, the Dolphins moved up to pick him so he could pair up on the…

Why D’Quell Jackson isn’t a fit for the Vikings
Why D’Quell Jackson isn’t a fit for the Vikings
It’s no secret that the Vikingsdefense last year was…in a word…atrocious.  They tended to activate my turrets syndrome in a way that would make Boondock Saints fans blush.  So when a player that people view as an upgrade is available, people start making connections.  “Player X played for Coach Y last year”, or “Coach Y bought an ice cream cone in the same line as Player X three years ago and…

Pittsburgh Steelers: Rocky Bleier a true hero.
Pittsburgh Steelers: Rocky Bleier a true hero.
When we talk about sports, we tend to use the word “hero” when speaking of one sports star or the next, when you speak of former Pittsburgh Steeler running back Rocky Bleier it is true in every sense of the word. Bleier was not only a star on the football field, he was also a Vietnam veteran.
Rocky came to be a Steeler from Notre Dame University where he was a football standout. He was a…

Johnny Manziel won't make it in the NFL
Johnny Manziel won’t make it in the NFL
When the subject of Johnny Manziel comes up, there are two opinions people have.  Either he’s a new breed of quarterback who is going to take the NFL by storm, or he is just the next in a line of collegiate stars who simply don’t have the game to succeed at the next level.
His dominant play since taking over the quarterback position at Texas A&M has made many analysts believe that Manziel can…
