Lights Out Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I don't think the 1993 uniforms were weird at all, in fact, they were the Patriots' best look in franchise history and should have never been changed. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuordr Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 The Vikings' facemask is already black.The Vikings' facemask is already black.Nuordr obviously meant gray knowing him. I meant either change it to purple or leave it black. Gray on purple looks like crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaydre1019 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I tend to like gray facemasks and I prefer them in most cases like the Giants, Browns, colts. I don't think they look great on the cardinals, but at the same time neither do any other masks, idk why. The red is really bright and unnecessary on the pats helmet, but that too is the best option imo, silver and blue look generic, and that helmet is synonymous with Tom Brady and it's kinda grown on me.Vikings need purple or a dark gray/charcoal.

LARAMS2K15 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Lately I've been finding that facemasks that match the helmet by far look the most professional. So here's what I suggest:New England: silverMiami: whiteBuffalo: whiteNYJ: whiteIndianapolis: whiteHouston: NavyJacksonville: blackTennessee: whitePittsburgh: blackCleveland: orangeBaltimore: blackCincinnati: orangeDenver: NavySan Diego: whiteKansas City: redOakland: silverDallas: silverPhiladelphia: midnight greenWashington: maroonNYG: RoyalNew Orleans: GoldAtlanta: blackCarolina: silverTampa: pewterDetroit: silverGreen Bay: yellow Minnesota: purpleChicago: NavySeattle: NavyArizona: whiteSt. Louis: NavySan Francisco: goldDoubt me, and just photoshop it or find some one who did. It's by far the best looks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midway Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Bills to blue, Pats to navy, Browns to brown. That's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuordr Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Utah is the best example of simply changing the facemask from game-to-game as it definitely makes a difference in the helmet. Thankfully, they never used a gray facemask on their helmets this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chawls Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I know a lot of people here love grey facemasks, but for teams that don't have grey or silver in their color schemes, I don't see how it looks good.

Tougher call on the red helmet but I think I'll go with the black.

Tougher call on the red helmet but I think I'll go with the black.To me the constant change of mask colors and random uni combinations reeks of poor design. I have no problems with alts or making changes every season but good design is marked by consistency and emphasis of certain elements. The endless combos and tweaks in season remind me of the 2 quarterback analogy. If you're constantly tweaking and changing in the same season, you don't have a good looking uniform.

Sport Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I long for the days when college football teams stuck with one helmet and facemask for an extended period of time. And then when you actually did do something different it was for a special circumstance like Purdue or Washington State putting roses in their helmet logos. It was enough of a change to make it a special occurrence, but it was subtle enough that it didn't damage their uniform.Now teams are like "the helmet is wrapped in vinyl roses and the numbers have rose detailing inlaid to the point of illegibility and we're wearing chrome red facemasks and matte red pants because Roses and also our regular colors are purple or green so none of this makes any sense for us, but KEWL uniforms! Come play for us 17 year old kids!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown and orange is such an old-fashioned color combination that the equally old-fashioned gray facemask just fits, even if it isn't anywhere else on their uniform.

JerseyJimmy Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'd love to see the Rams use a gold facemask. It'd really make their helmets pop. Seriously, I don't understand how this looks anything but boring: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean F&F Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 I was surprised so many people don't like the red facemasks on the Patriots. I think it's just the right amount of red to compliment to red elsewhere on the uniform.I photoshopped a silver and navy facemask.I like the silver second and navy third. I think the blue just looks odd. Maybe I'm not used to it. https://fandfsports.wordpress.com/Hockey Uniform Templates (Gimp/Photoshop) http://seanff.deviantart.com/gallery/52790653/Devious-Folder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I don't understand how this looks anything but boring:The horn would get lost in the gold mask if you ask me so I would not like the look. I am sucker for these type of unique helmets so I love this even with the Navy.
