NFL 2018 changes

[Gothamite 22,662]

We know the 49ers are getting a new pant option.  The color is at this point purely speculative.

[DeFrank 1,276]

Random new pant options give me hope Washington makes what we all want finally a reality.

If the Dolphins really insist that they don't want to go with the throwbacks.

They should also move the stripes to the sleeves and numbers to the shoulders as well as go back to the two stripe socks.

I go back and forth on this one constantly.

My best guess would be the orange being altered. Both in shade and prominence. That would make sense with the logo, helmet, jersey and pants being altered, while also "not being shocking to fans".

 

I hope they darken the aqua/teal a bit... The current color looks like neon powderpuff aqua on TV most of the time, especially in certain lighting. The teal from their throwbacks works much better on TV.

That's orange, right? It's the correct way to go for sure, but that color appears darker on my screen, for some reason.

 

The overly abundant navy outlines need to be toned down a bit. They need to feature teal and orange primarily, with navy accents kept to a minimal. That concept looks a lot more like the classic Miami Dolphins without having to revert to an old, somewhat outdated look.

Is this what you mean?

 

This didnt loook so bad on the Revo Speed helmets, and I imagine it was designed with that helmet model and it’s grooves in mind (it was first introduced within a season or two of those uniforms). That said, it looked like crap on every other helmet model (as seen above). 

 

Also, the only tweak the Dolphins need to make are the numbers. One solid orange outline on a block font will do. 

[Tracy Jordan 992]

If the only change the Dolphins made was an improvement to their helmet stripes, I'd be completely happy with just that. The lack of orange on their current helmets has always bothered me. I also wouldn't mind it if they changed the face-masks back to teal.

Being a Dolphins fan. I will say I love these and the idea of leaving the sleeve stripes to the throwbacks. If all they did was these tweaks, return to an aqua facemask, and replace the navy in the pants and helmet stripe with more orange I would be quite happy.

Wonderful, reminds me of my favorite Dolphin jersey, the 1970-'72 stripeless aqua...

How about a grey dolphin? Remove Blue.

No. The Dolphins don't need GFGS, and animal mascots don't need to be the color of the real animal. Plus the gray gets lost on the white.

[Cosmic 6,157]

While the gray dolphin isn't bad on its own, it doesn't work for the Dolphins. You'd lose the great color balance and tropical feel they have now.

Am I the only guy who thinks that this helmet should have been given the time of day for an ultra-modern redesign?

 

I prefer the traditional white helmet, but this would have been a good way to mix things up.

I'm surprised by how much I like this. I don't know if it's better than just aqua and orange, but this is an interesting change that makes sense.

Dan Marino and John Elway only met twice in their regular season careers - 1984 & 1998. What perfect uniform juxtaposition that would have made... Elway in a young man's clothes was jarring enough without Marino to match.
