What was the first sports team to have a modern-style logo? Flat, sharp lines, just a head in profile, usually something flowing toward the back, etc.
>>
It might have been the Vikings. This logo is from 1966. It's not perfectly modern because the lines aren't thick, there's too much detail, and the shading on the horns keeps it from being completely flat, but it's like the prototype.

I'm pretty sure they can win future Super Bowls wearing the old Pat Patriot logo. The "Flying Elvis" era Patriots had a great run but now it's time to replace it.

They still wear the throwbacks a few times a year. It's not even that they hate it, it's just that the flying elvis is what they wore when they won all six of their super bowls.

I genuinely don’t get it, there was literally nothing wrong with 97-2012. The current logo looks like something someone threw together on photoshop very quick.

Denver's logo looks like a fucking donkey. It's the worst logo in football even worse than the Rams. Raiders and Seahawks (old) have the best logos

My answer for first modern-style logo would be Toronto Blue Jays, LA Kings or Indiana Pacers

This not "modern style logo" this is just cartoon styled, you could see this all the time on car stickers from 60 years ago

Modern style logo would be something like manchester city

Do you mean modern by "contemporary with today's style" or Modern as in Modern Style in the concept of Modern as an art movement that dominated the 50s-70s.
The New York Giants 1961 Logo which has remained primary or secondary and the style unchanged since then is a good contender if that's your discussion point.
If you just mean that post-80s cool aesthetic that crept in during millennial childhoods, the Grizzlies, Raptors and Mighty Ducks of Anaheim are great contenders that beat Denver's run.

Chargers, Cowboys, Bengals and Colts are classic helmet designs. Jets are just bad as a team, their green uniforms are endearing. Washington's Logo is just too 2020s to get any respect.

Why would Miami fix what isn't broken? The dolphin looked better with the helmet on. 2018 didn't even try too. They just redrew the tail and then downgraded the brightness to 20%. What terrible rebranding.

The league with the best logos is NHL, then MLS, then MLB, then NBA and finally NFL. NFL has the worst logos without question. Rams, Browns, Bengals, 49ers, Packers, Commanderedskins, Donkeys, Ravens and Dolphins are straight up trash
