thespleenenator Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 The only thing the Cowboys really need to change about their uniforms is fixing their standard pants. Make it a normal silver instead of that greenish gray and they're all set. No crazy Nike modernizations marketing gimmicks necessary.What they need to do is go back to their 60s throwbacks, make the facemask blue, and leave it at that. Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me. I cry tears.Chopping off the dicks of Filipino boys and embracing causes that promote bigotry =/= strong moral character.

powersurge Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I'm actually pretty stoked to see these on the field. I'm not too sure about the fact that the helmet is so chromed out that you can't see the wings, but I like it. I just wish that they would have made the helmet wings a bit more prominent; maybe make the wings a matte color and keep the helmet shiny. I'll wait till I see them on the field before I give my final opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waltere Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 The more I see of that helmet the more i HATE it, there's no football reason to do it (not that there's a football reason for anything in uniforms anymore) & no seeming taste reason to do it, it seems to have been done just because ZOMG!!! WE CANN!!!!, same as the numbers, which are just coming across as really annoying in photographs. Not that there's anything new about this approach of course, but this year it has absolutely jumped the shark and got to a point where it's just stupid. 1 hour ago, BringBackTheVet said: sorry sweetie, but I don't suck minor-league d CCSLC Post of the day September 3rd 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 I just thought of something, from a competitive standpoint, those rubber wings on the shoulders are bad for Oregon. I like the look of them, but they'll be easier to hold onto, grab, whatever when initially beginning to make tackles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might make a difference when somebody is running down LaMichael James from behind and grabs his shoulderpads but otherwise you're supposed to tackle the torso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might make a difference when somebody is running down LaMichael James from behind and grabs his shoulderpads but otherwise you're supposed to tackle the torsoI know how you make tackles. I've watched football before. I'm saying that in close, in situations where a running back lowers his shoulder into the line, when the QB tries to avoid a sack, the defense can grab that part as a last ditch effort and it'll be easier to bring them down. I'm not saying it'll be the difference between losing and winning or if it'll even be noticeable, but why give the other team even the slightest advantage? The material they've been using for the wings the last few years has been just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiddySicks Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Two things. The wings are definitely more noticeable in the sunlight, and that face mask is definitely two different colors.

a3uge Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 That would be the best helmet ever for the Cowboys.Agreed. With some seriously shiny silver pants to match. That would look awesome. I hope NIKE does spice up the NFL a little.Nike released the prototype Cowboys uniform today:More like: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GriffinM6 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Why does it look copper on the two-tone facemask and shell? That's odd that only in those pictures that we've seen it look like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
