NFL: Ranking throwback logos from 'Bring It Back' to 'Total Disaster'

Sometimes it’s important to look back and enjoy the past, but there are also occasions where you might think that the past is best left where it is.

In the latest in our lost of tier ranking articles, we are going to go back in time and look at some of the old logos of all 32 NFL teams.

As is the case with most teams in sport, teams identities have constantly changed over the years, whether it be slight tweaks in the colours like the Seattle Seahawks did in 2011 or if it’s a complete renovation like when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers went from a lone pirate to the skull and crossbones in 1997.

Hopefully someone can use a Men In Black style memory eraser to make sure we totally forget it even existed 

Now that the definitions are set, here is our ranking of
