Browns to unveil plans for FirstEnergy Stadium during news conference this afternoonBy Nate Ulrich Published: November 13, 2013
The Browns will unveil their plans for FirstEnergy Stadium during a news conference at the stadium at about 2:15 p.m. today, the team announced this morning.
The Browns have been working on renovation plans for FirstEnergy Stadium, and the NFL approved $62.5 million in funding for such improvements in October when the owners met in Washington.
Browns CEO Joe Banner said in July that the renovation project, which could cost about $120 million, would likely unfold in two phases during the next two offseasons.
A year ago, Banner indicated the installation of new scoreboards and sound systems were part of the plan.
“Clearly in the area of technology as it relates to scoreboards and sound systems, things have advanced so far from when these systems came from,” Banner said. “I don’t want to prejudge anything, but it’s inconceivable we won’t be making some very dramatic changes there.”
FirstEnergy Stadium, formerly known as Cleveland Browns Stadium, opened in 1999 and seats more than 73,200.

i don't mind the new color tweaks with the new numbers embroidered with colored edges, logo patches on the jersey, no probs. wider to narrow stripes on the helmet, no probs, even a flat paint job on the helmet for different games.
but a logo on the helmet will NEVER happen. and the basic colors that we start tweaking (from the seal brown fading to a darker or lighter brown) same with orange will NEVER change.
so what i described won't piss me off. it might piss those off that want fuscia and teal added to the uniforms.

I don't think anyone is advocating adding tael or fuschia.
I, too, want what you described. I want the overall look of the jerseys to stay the same, but modernized. I don't think we need any sort of drastic changes whatsoever. I believe that a jersey similar to Seattle's would be nice, with the orange used as an accent color on larger, more modern numbers.
I think changing the helmet stripe minimally would go a long way. I'd personally like to see them emulate what OSU has done, widening the middle stripe, making the middle stripe metallic while the outside stripes are matte.
We do not need a logo on the helmet. Our helmet stripe IS the logo. It's the focal point of the helmet and is easily recognizable. Accentuating that is all we need.

Maybe some plastic grass

The brass has said over and over that the helmet won't have a logo, even if the team does (and it's rumored to be the brownie). They've also said that "The Browns" will obviously continue to feature brown as the primary color. In fact, they've said the color scheme (brown, orange, white) will remain the same.
It'll be about design. We've seen some really cool stuff. If you really want the Browns to be just like always, Marion Motley wore a white helmet, not an orange one. Sipe wore orange pants while Hoyer wore brown. The shade of brown has changed a dozen times. The stripes have changed even more.
The notion that we've always worn the same uniform is wrong.

@MaryKayCabot: #Browns fan asking a question of Haslam, Banner: "Thank you. You actually have a team that you don't have to get drunk to watch.''
Very nice, haha.

Looks good to me- right now 3PM the site is overloaded though.

What does this mean.....
"Currently, we have the lowest percentage of seating in the lower bowl than any stadium in the country," Banner said. ". . . Some of the upper-bowl seats will become lower-bowl seats."

They will charge you more money for the same seat? Also it looks like they are adding a lot more add space....

Seating will go down to just over 68,000.
