Have not heard anything specific on the Vikings but my sources have said the Jets will be going with white lids and for a Namath Era "tribute". 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the black helmet retired then? Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Essentially, the Black alt helmets were introduced a year early; the intention was to unveil new uniforms for 2022, but supply chain issues delayed it to this season. The Black helmets for 2023 are exactly what they were in 2022, just paired with new uniforms. We didn't know it at the time, but the 3-D logo and the metallic flake shell was a preview as to what was to come with the new White helmets. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brave-Bird 08 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 I thought I read somewhere that the Eagles have permission to wear both the kelly green throwback helmets and their black alternate helmets in 2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two alternate helmet rule has not been voted on by the owners. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SportsFan12 Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 The Jets seem to still consider themselves a green team. Hopefully we see this jersey more than once in 2023... 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not close enough to matter, but still a reason to consider going back to Royal/Orange: I don’t ever want that Royal jersey or Royal pant, but this colorway was and would again become unique to the league, rather than one shared with another team: I don't know exactly how popular/unpopular this opinion is, but I would prefer the Broncos to stay away from royal/powder blue when getting new uniforms for a couple of reasons: 1- Our division rivals in the Chargers already own powder blue, so just bringing it back would make us too similar to them, even if it used in a minimal capacity. The connection will be made. 2- For me, Broncos and powder/royal blue is like the Bucs and creamsicle. It's a nice look to bring back every once in a while, but it associated with a lack of success. I would much rather embrace a more successful color scheme. (And I might be biased, having grown up with orange and navy, I'll be honest). 3- Using more orange in the next uniform set would help distance the Broncos visually from the Bears. After all, there are a number of teams in the NFL that wear the same/similar colors but differentiate themselves by the color balance. Every Broncos fan already has a wardrobe decked out in orange, it would be good to embrace it more. Not to the point of an orange helmet, per say, but definitely using it more on the away uniforms.

The connection will be made. I would disagree with this…if the Broncos bring back royal and orange full time (and not just a throwback), they’ll probably use a true royal metallic or satin finish on the helmets. The Broncos helmets will never look similar to the Chargers nor will their jerseys. The only reason the Broncos wore lighter blue helmets (which are quite darker than the current Chargers’ blue) in the 80s and 90s was due to equipment restrictions…they had a choice of lighter blue shells or navy shells (which the Rams and Giants and even the Chargers wore). Everything else in the Broncos’ identity was true royal. The Chargers wore royal blue in the 80s for a bit and no one ever said “Are those the Seahawks?” Similarly, no one ever was pissed the Chargers and Broncos wore navy for 20+ years. 5 Smart is believing half of what you hear.

It's pretty common for guys to be humble enough to offer but I always prefer to see a retired number stay retired. I will say I was okay with one exception, Larry Nance Jr. wearing 22 while in Cleveland. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours is good! I must admit though my favorite of the 10 submissions is the one by Bpodger. Are all of these dog supposed to be mastiffs? Does the Dawg Pound have a specific breed they represent themselves with? 4 Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
