IceCap Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 It might come off as to close to Tampa's. Which wouldn't be desirable considering Tampa has a pretty unique helmet.

The_Admiral Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 The only way the red helmet looks good IMO is if you introduced red pants. One concept here had red pants with the blue jersey which I thought was kind of cool, and definitely unusual.That was my concept! (Though I'm sure I wasn't the only person to think of it.) Yeah, I thought it would be novel to be so colorful while using conventional royal and red. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may not be worth the trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lights Out Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Two silver helmets and two white helmets is hardly better than one silver helmet and three white helmets. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although to be fair, the Bills were using silver shells long before the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 That's because they bought the Lions' surplus to get started. But of course, the entire NFL uniform catalogue can be traced back to the Detroit Lions. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a solid laugh out of it. CCSLC memes are always fun. We need more of them. You also could've gone with a brotherhood of the traveling pants joke.

infrared41 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Two silver helmets and two white helmets is hardly better than one silver helmet and three white helmets.Does the NFL have some sort of divisional helmet color quota that we're not aware of? What about the AFC North? Two orange, two black. Is that against the rules too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drakonius26 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Beyond stating that the Patriots look good in a silver helmet, I would prefer the Bills to have a white helmet, simply because it works with the mock-up of the possible designs they might choose. A silver/nickel-colored helmet would take away from their overall identity, and once again leave most Bills fans asking "why in the hell can't they get it right for once?"

Not a quota, but it just looks boring if every team in a division has similar-colored helmets.I think the Browns should wear a brown helmet and the Ravens could pull off a purple helmet.

TruColor Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I must say I like it even if it violates my "only the Cowboys, Raiders and Lions may use silver shells" rule.And of course, all three of those teams use different metallic colors for their helmets. Not one is the same as another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
