Helmet Aesthetics


WarHeel

Recommended Posts

It has been mentioned many times that folks would like to see a uniform revamp of sorts. One of the common themes is removing the silver altogether or at least going with a black helmet but I haven’t seen much thought of a blue helmet. What does the Huddle think about this concept?

 

My opinion is that it certainly pops with the white unis.

I think we should eliminate the silver-- Our helmet looks too much like New England's helmet.  Then you have the lions, Raiders, etc. 

A black helmet would make us look like the Jags. 

I think our helmet logo would look good on a white helmet.  I think the silver looks stupid with our all-white uniforms that have no silver on them anywhere.

I dunno. I would love to lose the silver out of the uniforms.  We have too many colors.  3 should be tops if you include white.

I'd be okay with it. It looks a little like an arena league helmet, but I'm sure it would grow on me.

I'm also over the silver helmet. It's too retro - I see that spangly ass helmet and just think grainy Dallas Cowboys footage from the 60s-  and doesn't go at all with our color scheme.

Black, agreed would look terrible with out white unis, and a black logo on a black helmet? Don't like white. Looks too much like Indy.

This at least is a color that would be uniquely our own. And in a team that badly need a new identity, or rather has been thrust into finding one, I think making the change would be representative of our organization; new look, eliminating the mistakes of the past, and innovating rather than trying to copy other teams.

I’m not sure white would work either but it would be the only look I’d be willing to give a shot but the silver helmet should stay. Black or blue helmet would look freaking STUPID. 

As far as jerseys go, if they’re ever going to change them I hope it’s very subtle. Maybe remove the stripes over the shoulders and just go with a very clean look or add a couple stripes around the sleeves with the logo over top. 

Clean and classic is what works long term. This blue/black helmet and new stupid nike jersey designs are having team recycle through jerseys every couple years.

    • Rags lost again. All is right in the hockey world. 
    • He’s responsible for two drafts classes. The first was one of the worst drafts I’ve ever seem. The second one is showing a ton of promise. I’m somewhere between skeptical and hopeful on Morgan. 
    • I'm a big fan of Dan. His ability to find productive players deep in the draft will pay off.  I'm going to give him 1.5 draft classes right now, because I do think it's a little unfair to evaluate his first year when he got the job in January, especially when we went into that draft not having a first round pick.  XL and Brooks are still big time TBD players. Both still have incredibly high ceilings, but both have also given us legitimate reasons to have a lot of pause. Trevin Wallace, Chau Smith Wade and Jatavion Sanders have IMO outplayed their draft position early in their careers. That's a great thing. He also got Coker and Demani Richardson as UDFAs that year. Given the situation we were in, I really don't mind the gamble on the high ceiling guys. Still may work out, still may not, but if you made a checklist of ideal situation for an NFL GM to walk into, ours was near the bottom of that list.  Every single 2025 pick is contributing in some way. That typically doesn't happen. I am absolutely blown away by this draft class 6 games in. Even the best GM's miss on occasion, and we can't expect Dan to be 100% on drafts moving forward. Ryan Fitzgerald was an excellent find as well.  Comparing our last two drafts to the previous few is pretty shocking. Can you imagine this season without our Rookies? It would not be good. Additionally, this roster only has 6 players with more than 6 years of experience, and two of those are specialist.  The next step is equally important, and still very much TBD. We have to avoid Cap Chaos.
