Bills announce uniform change

My avatar helmet, please.

 

 

I'm guessing the marketing department and football department work separately so they can probably try to do both.

That is probably true, and because it is probably true, they both should be fired. They have failed miserably on both sides.

Thank God. I hated these things the minute Bledsoe showed them off in the summer of '02. Lets just pretend these last 9 years never happened.

Heck, I am trying to pretend the last 11 years never happened, and sadly it has nothing to do with the uniforms but the team itself.

I wish they were announcing an improvement to the actual on-field product, not the decoration, but it'll be fun to see what they come up with. I was hoping for throwbacks made permanent, though. Maybe we'll see white charging buffalo helmets with some variant of the throwback jerseys? That'd be pretty rad.

:thumbsup:

 

When did the Bills switch to the red helmet? I remember Jim Kelly being colorblind and said he could better distinguish the red helmet from the opponents but not sure if this prompted the change or not.

1984... It was Kay Stephenson's idea to change to red.

Thank you Bills. Long overdue. I'd like a blend of throw-back, with a charging Buffalo, and a little something new. No monochrome please. Some of the elements of this fake picture are kind of cool...but it should be a bit simpler and keep the charging Buffalo on the jersey and helmet. http://jockpost.com/nfl-nike-uniforms-2012-real-fake/

I'm happy that they are keeping the helmet. I love that logo.

 

I liked the new jerseys with the white pants when Henry and Bledsoe played for us; but then they went to all blue which I thought could use a makeover.

 

I liked the 90's uniforms. The throwbacks are cool, too.

 

Sad that this is the most exciting news out of One Bills Drive since who knows when.

Having said that....I am PUMPED! The anticipation will kill me.

 

Hiring Dave WAnstadt was pretty cool news...

 

...but I agree, news like the firing of Tom Modrak would make my year!

Charging Buffalo on white helmet, to me, is the coolest helmet...plus, it kind of bridges the old and new...standing Buffalo isn't bad...just like the charging Buffalo more...hate the red helmets....

 

The red helmets and the all dark blue uniforms were awful.

 

I would prefer the white helmets with a much lighter shade of blue. Close to the throwback color style, but updated for the 21st century.
