BobChalmers Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) Does anyone else miss the red helmet. I think it would go much better with the jerseys that will be coming out shortly.. I was just commenting to a Jets fan last weekend - "THANK GOD WE GOT RID OF THOSE UGLY RED HELMETS!!!" So, uhm, no. The red ones looked like absolute crap. The new uniforms are wonderful.

BiggieScooby Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 I would like to see a "rust" color helmet. We gotta rep the Rust Belt.
BobChalmers Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 For the first time in a looooong time the Bills have one of the best unis in the league and you want to mess with it again - ay yay yay THIS.
Marv's Neighbor Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Oh jeez, not this sh1t again. If we could get a favorable Stadium resolution along with a long term lease deal, THEN we could sweat the freakin helmets!
Buftex Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 (edited) Well I hope all of you guys realize that Nike is taking over the uniforms industry this year so, whatever uniforms you were used to will look different. I'm guessing it won't be a drastic change but the unveiling of all 32 teams uniforms will be on April 3rd. Now to add my 2 cents into the convo. Me personally, I love the home jerseys with the white helmet and charging Buffalo. But if we could change the white pants to the same color blue pants, it would be sweet. Away games could have the same white helmet with the white jersey but with blue pants. I would like to know if there is a restriction on how many different combinations/styles of uniforms 1 team is allowed to have because if there isn't a restriction, we can mix and match whatever we like. We can even have an all white uniform with the red helmet that the OP misses so much. Well...as the song says, "life is sweet" then...according to Steve Johnson, this change will be made this coming season. Road jersey will be the white helmet they wore in 2011, white jersey, blue pants. Not sure why they didn't do this in the first place...but there you go! Btw- I am 47...earliest Bills memories start around 1971-1972...I never liked the red helmets...the version they are wearing now, for me, is the all-time best! Edited March 19, 2012 by Buftex
Rico Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Red helmet is tacky with a blue jersey, white is far more classy imo

Yes I do actually remember Stevie saying something about blue pants. What I would like to know is would the league restrict us to wearing white helmet, blue jersey, blue pants for one home game and then white helmet, blue jersey white pants in another just to have a variety. Either way I agree. These new uni's are great. Let's hope that Nike doesn't change the style too much.

People freaked out when the NHL changed jerseys, claiming that logos and unis were going to change wholesale across the league. For the majority of franchies, the "changes" were much ado about nothing.
shibuya Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Nope white helmets with the standing buffalo is the only way to go the standing Buffalo is LAME LAME LAME... I will never understand hwy anyone would prefer the grazing Buffalo over the charging Buffalo
r00tabaga Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 I would love our current unis as the primary with our full 90s uniforms (including red helmet) as our alternate. This would be so awesome. ^^^ this.
ExiledInIllinois Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 What they need to do first is get rid of the streaking bison that Ralph ripped off (and trademarked) before its rightful owner, Howard University, knew what was happening! What a scam, it isn't even our logo! Kinds '70ish anyway. <br />the standing Buffalo is LAME LAME LAME...<br /><br />I will never understand hwy anyone would prefer the grazing Buffalo over the charging Buffalo<br /> Because the streaking bison is not ours... Ralph ripped it off! Then to boot, that design was during the whole 1970's streaking fad... Makes me want to pour vinegar in my eyes! Streaking is more LAME!
mousetrap08 Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Once the Bills become contenders and start winning again every body then will forget what color the helmets are.

Either way I agree. These new uni's are great. Let's hope that Nike doesn't change the style too much. The blue pants were part of the jersey designs from last year. Road uniforms were intended to have the blue pants with the white jerseys. I believe it was an issue with Reebok getting them made, not 100% sure though. http://www.flickr.com/photos/24964222@N06/5859413783
Spiderweb Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 Nope white helmets with the standing buffalo is the only way to go Just say NO to the standing Buffalo......

DrDawkinstein Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 ^This x 100. Love the new unis and the white helmets pop. Agreed. The white helmets, and new unis, look sharp. Very crisp. Im all for the white helmet. What they need to do first is get rid of the streaking bison that Ralph ripped off (and trademarked) before its rightful owner, Howard University, knew what was happening! What a scam, it isn't even our logo! Kinds '70ish anyway. Well how about that?!?

Captain Hindsight Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 I really like the white, i think they look really sharp
Just in Atlanta Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 My vote is no. Love the white helmets. They just pop. My only vote--blue away pants...but I'm happy with the current duds. And absolutely no standing buffalo. He looks like he's grazing. Almost as bad as the wimpy cardinal before they made him look "mean."
Dorkington Posted March 19, 2012 Posted March 19, 2012 I don't like that every team in our division has light colored helmets, personally.
