There'll inevitably be a Jags gradient helmet for every Bucs Creamsicle when helmet rules change, it's just the way sports trends tend to work. Why prevent good identities from returning just because a few teams inevitably will make a stinker? 17 minutes ago, UnclearInitial said: Or just get ready for one helmet for the current set and the possibility of throwbacks with different helmet colors, like it was before the one helmet rule. 14 minutes ago, Wade Heidt said: Yes, if it is going to happen, NFL needs to restrict it to throwbacks so that we can see the iconic vintage uniforms again for some teams that have not been able to give us this. That's not going to happen. This "restrict it to throwbacks only" is nonsense, and you're insane if you think that's going to be how it works. What about teams without a different throwback look? They just get left out? You're kidding yourself. Make no mistake... if you're excited about the one helmet rule going away you are on "Team Crazy-multiple-helmets". You are. That's the side you're taking, period. You've already seen the slippery slope NFL alternative jerseys have taken, from first just throwbacks, to alternate colors, to Color Rush, and from one a year to twice a year, to oh, hell, whenever. That's what's in store for the helmets. This is not a guess, it's a fact. If you want multiple helmets, you want chaos, whether you admit it or not. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramsjetsthunder Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 oldschoolvikings hit the nail right on the head. As much as I'd love to see creamsickle throwbacks for the Bucs, Pat Patriot throwbacks for the Patriots, and all the others, it's just too big a risk. I'd rather have no throwbacks than the helmet trend we saw in College Football a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because there is no good reason to not pick your best look and always wear it. Fans still buy throwback merchandise without it seeing the field. Turning your question around, Why have multiple identities when fans still buy stuff without it seeing the field? It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it got buried in the new CBA. It's not just Arians talking out of his backside. NFL confirms that it is being considered for 2021. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/03/25/one-helmet-rule-could-change-for-2021/ from the article - “There will be no change for the 2020 season,” NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy told PFT via email. “There are ongoing discussions for a potential change for the 2021 season, but no decisions have been made.” It's where I sit.

Jojopeligreeno Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 One thing I think is clear from the Arians interview is the helmets are pewter. He wasn’t lying in terms of the new look being a basic return of the Super Bowl era unis. I think it’s also safe to say pewter is the 3rd jersey. The only question remains what we all have been wondering ...is orange no longer a part of the uniform. We all need to hope that is wasn’t discernible in the pics Lukas saw ,that’s all we got!

Adidas wasn't great with the NBA (clearly the sleeves were a disaster), but at the very least they respected home and away designations. Yellow or gray vs. white is inexcusable in basketball, the same way red vs. green is inexcusable in football. Nike consistently sacrifices visibility for innovation and it's tiresome. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruhammydude Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Unpopular opinion: I think a 2-helmet rule works fine, it would help out with throwbacks for sure.
