Probably. But that would defeat the whole purpose, if you can’t instantly tell what helmet the player is wearing. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

WSU151 Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Yeah since teams don't put the helmet maker mark on the bumper anymore, the helmet makers have to distinguish their models by the shell design. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another winner in the 'one helmet rule' stuff. People, if there is a LEGITIMATE rumor about this, someone will have it here. Remember next year that unless you hear discussion of it leading up to the spring rules meeting, it isn't worth getting your hopes up (or not if you are like @oldschoolvikings and me, among others). It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing this year's will be a sol jersey paired with the blue pants. Depending on the one-helmet rule decision they might do a navy & white throwback next season. I'm hoping it's an all white uniform and they mix in the white jerseys and pants with the normal blue and gold jerseys/pants so we don't have to see that dumb "bone" color as much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoHawks Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 This is probably an unpopular opinion because it seems like most people want Washington to change up everything related to their team name and logo but I think they should bring back this logo (minus the feather) and uniform and change the name to Warriors.

The only maker's mark since the late 80's early 90's was riddell because they paid to be the official supplier. Also for a couple decades you only had 2 shells on the field, riddell and schutt so the schutt's were either unbranded or had team branding on the bumpers.

That would be a tough sell. It wouldn’t work as a primary logo either. A Roman or Greek warrior? I’m all for it, but the team would have to explicitly say and show that to be the case.

They can keep the current W logo as the primary logo and use the spearhead on the helmet and as a secondary logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont care Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 5 minutes ago, GoHawks said: They can keep the current W logo as the primary logo and use the spearhead on the helmet and as a secondary logo. Doesn’t change the fact that the logo and name can very easily be a reference to native Americans without the explicit distinction showing a Greek soldier, or something Washington should stay as far from the warrior name and that spear logo.

oldschoolvikings Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 If anybody thinks Washington, regardless of what name they choose, would give two seconds thought to the idea of putting a spear on the helmet, they're out of their minds. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
