joey joe joe jr. shabadoo Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Douglas had an 80's Jets helmet at his desk. Never seen that helmet at any official Jets functions in forever Wonder why? 1 helmet rule thankfully goes bye bye after 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCree Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 The 1 helmet rule doesn’t stop the Jets from making a Sack Exchange era uniforms as a throwback. The only issue would probably be the different helmet color if they choose to keep true to the original Kelly Green jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since they weren't bothered by the wrong color shell in 1994 (green as opposed to white), metallic green as opposed to flat green shouldn't bother them now. It's where I sit.

Was there ever an explanation to why the Jets didn’t bother changing the helmets in 94? That was so bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of us are keeping our fingers crossed that the brilliant, and fabulous One Helmet Rule not only sticks around but actually become a permanent amendment to the constitution. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new green is fantastic, and I hope they never change the shade. Agreed, the green is fantastic as are the helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you notice the helmet from John Schneider's high school at his house? I did, because I went to the same school. It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an official league function, but it's still just his personal home office, and not anything different than what's probably at the team headquarters anyway (I assume they have some memorabilia.) Basically - don't read into it. Belichic's dog isn't an official Patriots mascot, just something he has. 1 hour ago, Sec19Row53 said: BBTV is right.

Maybe they bring those back too! But seriously - considering the 80s helmet was a VSR4 that literally anyone can buy online...my guess is that’s a collectible and nothing more. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the two best things about the Jets unis. No shame on the white helmet, I love it, and ultimately I prefer our old unis. However, it's hard to resist that metallic sheen and the green on the jerseys is perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schlim Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 It's amazing what a bright shade of green will do. And as warm/lukewarm as my like is for the Jets new look is, I'm still celebrating they didn't keep their drab olive green that their last uniforms morphed into and went the whole jingoistic military jet motif.

IceCap Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Hey guys, this is a thread about a uniform unveiling from a year ago. There's no reason this discussion about the Jets' historic uniforms can't be in its own thread. So we're going to lock this one. EDIT- Here's a link if anyone wants to continue the historical uni discussion. I split it off from this thread.
