jerseyfan Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 It was reported yesterday on www.billsdaily.com that President and GM Tom Donohoe is currently working with designers on a Buffalo Bills throwback jersey to be worn next year, provided the leagure approves.I consider the current Bills uniforms lacking in terms of consistency and overall design program. Does anyone have any suggestions for the Bills and/or know any more about this?fell free to post concepts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseyfan Posted October 27, 2004 Author Share Posted October 27, 2004 I saw those a while back...they're nice. I have always been a fan of the shoulder stripes. However, they'd have to be pretty narrow to fit on current NFL sleeves.thanks for they reply! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezus_Ghoti Posted October 27, 2004 Share Posted October 27, 2004 This is good news, only because it seems like a possible way for the Bills to phase out their horrible current uniforms. The Bills organization has to know that what they have now is awful, so when the throwbacks get a great response (which they will, because anything is better than what they have now), they can design an away version of the throwback and just use those.

winters in buffalo Posted October 28, 2004 Share Posted October 28, 2004 Just jerseys, or the whole uni?They should use the 1964 set. If it's just a jersey, that's stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you need to design a throwback for? If you already wore it, you know what it should look like!That being said anything better than the current set works for me. I still have the afterimage burned on my retina from the space-age glowing red side panels on their jerseys sticking out against the morbid blue.

jerseyfan Posted October 28, 2004 Author Share Posted October 28, 2004 True. You shouldn't need to "design" a throwback. It already exists, which is why I see them doing something more modern with a throwback feel. (see the Falcons).As mentioned above, I think they'll use this as a bsis for a new uniform set. They re-designed to usher in the "Drew Bledsoe era", and they'd be foolish not to ditch those (along with the past 4 years) and usher in the "JP Losman era".Hopefully they'll ditch the side striping and do some simplifying of the colors/striping pattern. Personally, I'd like to see the current logo with a white buffalo and blue stripe on the red helmet OR a white helmet with red charging buffalo and blue striped logo. (with two white helmets and one grey in the division though, BLUE could be the new helmet color of choice...again use a white buffalo here with red stripe)I'll post some concepts soon.

Lee. Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 i like it with the red helmet, there should not be 3 white helmets in the afc east ...Which is why they switched to the red in the first place. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyfan Posted November 16, 2004 Author Share Posted November 16, 2004 puck...agreed. I like the red helmet the best too. I think it separates the Bills from many other NFL teams. However, here in Buffalo there is a large outcry for white helmets again.Thanks for the comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grish Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 There once was a time when the AFC East was nothing but white helmets. I believe that is the story to why they went red in the first place. "Try not to have a good time ...

The heck with deleting his post -- Mods, can we PLEASE send this thread to the graveyard?! I feel the same as SmoothieX -- i found it interesting that they're 'designing' a throwback jersey.
