I hope too and even though I hope the name changes I think the fact that JD's jersey for the past week or so is great.

If Josh does change the name it could well increase merchandise sales. Who is going to want a 5 jersey with Commanders on it? Fans will want the new jersey. There are some haard heads like us on this forum who refuse to buy it but give the team a better name and and something like our old jerseys and that merch will see.
I won,t buy a gd thing till they change the name.

I want a new name and the old uniforms, but I'm worried that our age demo isn't his priority. Uniforms is an easy fix. Name change will cost money.

Signs on everything, letterhead, etc.........

I was listening to Grant and Danny and they made a point. The more this team wins, the less likely a name change. That would be four names in probably eight......nine years.

I hope you're right though.

I heard that quote and passed it off and G&P bunk. We'll see. They also said it is well known that Josh and Mitch Rales do NOT like the name.

I like the helmet better than the uniforms. The gold pants have grown on me, because if you squint it's the closest combo to what once was.
I can,t find a decent thing about any of it.lke looking at your fave sore 3 hrs.

the problem is the white Jersey. Looks nothing like in years past. At least the red shirts and gold pants look something like years past. the "W" is fine on the helmet.

As far as the name. If we keep winning its more likely to stay. Magic did say when he bought the team that the name would be change. Now that we are winning and JD5 being the top jersey sold lets see what the team does.

I still don't like the gold numbers. The white jerseys are dreadful. I agree, a playoff run and merch sales might push a re-brand to the back of the line as far as priorities.

Yes the white numbers are better than the gold. I agree. The gold pants make the uniform with the gold numbers.

I hope they will change the name and uniforms but I think it is at least two years away.

Watching the Chief's game last night, I was disgusted. Disgusted because the whole stadium was doing the Tomahawk chant and chop. I didn't see or hear any woke remarks about why this is allowed.
It would make me happy if we went with Washington Warriors and put Chief John Two Guns White Calf back on the helmets.

I could be wrong, but I don't think Commanders is going anywhere. Jayden has the #1 selling jersey in the league. That means the #1 selling jersey in the league is a Commanders jersey.

Harris saves himself millions on a rebrand.

It's not going back to Redskins, so the old heads like us still don't get what we really want. Kids today associate Redskins with losing football.

I think it's going to be a situation like the Wizards. The Wizards dropped the teal and black and went back to the striped red, white, and blue with Washington across the chest.

I could see us keeping Commanders and these helmets and going back to the Superbowl uniforms eventually, but my gut tells me Commanders is here to stay, especially if they keep winning.

A rebrand makes Harris millions. It doesn’t cost him.

hey dont ask why something is "allowed " ? fight the wokeism that spawned this shit . are american indians any better off with our name not being redskins ? and when these groups of people have served their purpose by ushering in communism/ socialism they will cast aside like the useful idiots these guys targeted as an ends to a means

Sure Harris could make money off of a rebrand. If he feels the ROI is worth the 20m.....yeah. With Commanders gear currently doing well and having the number one selling football jersey in the country, I'm not sure it's on his "to do" list. I hope I'm wrong.

Yep…and with that new merchandise, the people who bought Commanders garbage are the most likely to rebuy an name changed jersey.

I think Josh and his partners have made millions already. If tis team goes 6-6 the rest of the way they finish 10-7. If they have good luck and can stay fairly healthy 11 or 12 wins are possible. At the same time Harris has. already spent millions on the stadium and in Ashburn. This guy knows how to make millions. Look at all the advertising he is selling. Even his Facebook images and videos have Commercials at the end. Snyder never tapped into that revenue. Hell he has Metallica coming in May, that is no small get.
