oldschoolvikings Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 We have been seemingly talking about the one helmet rule, and when it might be repealed for years. What a lot of people who were hoping to see it go away said was that it would be awesome to have alternate helmets again, as long as it was exclusive to throwbacks. I don't know how many times I saw that particular phrase typed... "I'd like to see alternate helmets again, as long as the NFL has a rule that it has to be just for throwbacks." And what I said was, when the rule finally went away, I didn't believe there was any way it was going to be just throwbacks. Too many teams who don't want to wear throwbacks, too much money to be made, too much Nike. When it happened, alternate helmets would mean alternate helmets. So... you know... just for the record, I was right. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there ever was a uniform that clearly screams "you don't look like you," it is either this or the silver-helmet Oilers.

I highly doubt a team as traditional as the Bears would be dumb enough to pull something like that. A faux leather helmet? Absolutely should be in the cards. A ridiculous orange helmet for the sake of an orange helmet? Not a chance in hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going back to through the archives they even had navy leather helmets so any other color should be a no go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJ Sands Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I wonder if the Bengals would’ve designed their road uniforms differently (more orange?) if they had known about a second helmet. They could’ve paired the white tiger Color Rush with a white and black helmet, while the standard road would have more orange to go with the primary helmet.

No, but in time I assume they could create a new road uni and slide the current white uni into "Color Rush" status....allowing to use the white helmet with it.

Or else just wear a white helmet whenever they want to because these days the NFL seems just as confused about their own uniform rules as everyone else is, and the haven't really bothered to enforce them since they relaxed the color rush rules. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I feel like this is a gateway drug to teams just wearing whichever helmets whenever they feel like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With some exceptions: Bills - Red Dolphins - Teal or None Patriots - White Jets - White or Black Ravens - Purple Bengals - White Browns - White Steelers - Yellow Texans - White or Red Colts - Blue Jaguars - Teal Titans - White or Light Blue Broncos - Royal Chiefs - None Raiders - None Chargers - Navy or Royal Cowboys - White Giants - None Eagles - Kelly Green WFT - None Bears - None Lions - None Packers - None Vikings - None Falcons - Red Panthers - Black Saints - Black or White Bucs - White Cardinals - Red, Black or None Rams - Black or darker blue if throwback (This could be terrible) 49ers - Silver or None Seahawks - Silver Teams in bold probably wouldn't have alternates. Depends on what alternates/throwbacks we see down the road, and what direction Washington goes with their branding. The Bills seem to want people to forget they ever wore red helmets, so I think they'll stick with the white throwbacks with the standing Buffalo. Miami has never worn anything other than a white helmet, and they seem happy with the throwbacks, so I don't see them trying anything new. Ravens in a purple helmet feels like its encroaching on Vikings territory. As previously mentioned, the Panthers wouldn't be able to wear a black helmet with the black jersey, so it kind of defeats the purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 I could imagine the Panthers pairing a black helmet with the blue jersey...though it might seem too similar to the Jaguars in that case?

A purple team doing purple things isn’t encroaching on anything. It’s like saying the Patriots can’t ever do a Pat Patriot helmet again because the Bills currently use a white helmet full time.

JayMac Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 So how many helmets will each NFL team have by 2025? We all know they will not stop at 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they decide to change this new rule in 3-4 seasons, it’s going to be two. As we saw with the Color Rush program, there’s definitely a high likelihood it gets relaxed to allow mix-and-matching with the regular home and aways.
