However, I had always loved this sport and played it when I was a child. That’s why I have always had an interest and followed all the leagues. I even collected stickers with MVP players. The longest player was Richard Sligh among them. I don’t have a specific favourite team. However, my favourite player is Lebron, and I watch him at the Laker. I even managed to fly and watch one match last season. I remember that dude, Billy Jean King, being a helluva basketball player, too. I believe he led the NFL in home runs back in 1762, while playing at the Phoenix Coyote. 4 6 1 https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlazerBlaze Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Falcons teasing something for tomorrow. We’re all assuming it’s the red helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 Expectation: Flat out replacement of the red shells worn with the 1966 throwbacks between 2009-2012 My wish: A red shell with a modern finish that can be worn as an alternate, or with the throwback decals What most fans seem to want: Red helmet and red jerseys (1980s throwbacks) Note: Falcons have not changed their alternate since 2016, so that is possible. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it'll be the 1980s throwbacks, as seemingly all throwbacks not in the 2021 style guide will be unveiled in 2023. I'm guessing it's the 1960s helmet, paired with the current throwback look yet again. 2 Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Old School Fool Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 It won't happen but I can hope for it one day... EDIT: Not sure how nobody pointed out the throwback helmet appearing twice in the Falcons schedule release video. 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 ^not sure if the retro helmet was mentioned on these boards but it was definitely noticed and talked about by fans a bunch when they released the schedule. Whatever they are releasing today (throwback helmet, maybe a whole new throwback uniform top to bottom, or the possibility of it being used as a red alternate lid with the modern decal), it isn’t happening until 8 PM EST so we’ll have to wait a bit.

That’s what the website says. Also, does the website typically have the gradient header? I don’t go on the site enough to remember. They usually change their social media graphics whenever they do throwback games and gradient games. There were rumors they’d also use the red lid as an alternate for a true red to black gradient so I’m wondering if this is foreshadowing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted June 1, 2022 Share Posted June 1, 2022 With Broncos OTA work going on this week, it's definitely clear and 100% without a doubt and don't ask me how I know this and trust me I just know, from a photo shoot that I was at even though I know nothing about photography or football, that the Broncos will switch from orange to navy this year. /heavysarcasm 8 Smart is believing half of what you hear.

BlazerBlaze Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I hope we put the new bird on it for a few games with the modern unis. That being said I love it. Glad to see the classic come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Love the return of the red lid, but seems like a poor marketing strategy to hold out until 8 PM. It’s not like they are doing anything new. They’re just returning to what the throwback used to be. With the big lead up and hype, I thought there was a chance they’d reveal a different throwback or show off the red lid as an alternate with the regular set. The “live event” on YouTube lasted less than one minute. This could have been a timed tweet at 10 AM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what i understand, alt helmets can’t be used for more than one uniform set. Can’t change up throwback helmets and make them modern. Smart is believing half of what you hear.

So if the verbiage from the bottom of the falcons article is correct: "Per the NFL, the revised policy allows teams to wear a second, alternate color helmet to pair with throwback, color rush or alternate uniforms." It reads that you can't pair the alt lid with the standard home and away, not limited to one of the 3 options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
