The Real Buffalo Joe Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 A nine page thread about uniforms. TSW really is the place for hard hitting Bills news.
1B4IDie Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 With red underwear on the outside? Great Idea!
Freddie's Dead Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 League rules say you can't have more than one helmet. We use the standing buffalo on the throwback.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 We use the standing buffalo on the throwback. @buffalobills Hall of Famer Billy Shaw was born OTD in 1938. Here's his '68 and '69 AFL helmet & HOF bio: http://www.profootba...x?PlayerId=192 How about this old school lid?
reddogblitz Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 They were OK. They looked better than I anticipated. I prefer the white pants still though. I would suspect we'll being seeing these a lot from now on. Seems to go with the whole Nike (puke) thing.
Malazan Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 I kinda liked the all blue unis I liked them too.
FluffHead Posted December 15, 2014 Posted December 15, 2014 We use the standing buffalo on the throwback. It's still the same helmet. They just replace the decals. It's do-able because they both use a base white color
reddogblitz Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Red helmets would look sweet with the All Blues. Edited December 16, 2014 by reddogblitz
bobobonators Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Red helmets would look sweet with the All Blues. yup
26CornerBlitz Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 I love the look of the Blue on Blue Uniforms!
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 10 pages late... Looks like Blue on Blue worked and the Bills won despite subpar QB play
eball Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Red helmets would look sweet with the All Blues. No, no, and no. The best decision the crappy Bills of the past 15 years have made was to go back to white helmets.
BuffaninATL Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 I loved the B on B - and so did Peter King (from his weekly MMQB): Claimed on waivers only because of an injury to starter Leodis McKelvin, Thigpen provided the spark the Bills needed to start their surprising win over Green Bay. A vision in blue with two minutes left in the first quarter—the Bills’ all-blue uniforms are keepers; if I were club president Russ Brandon, I’d move to make that my home uni in 2015—Thigpen took a Tim Masthay punt at the Buffalo 25, zigged out of traffic up the left hashmark, zagged to the left sideline and sprinted almost unbothered for a 75-yard touchdown, giving Buffalo a 7-3 lead. A gorgeous play, bordering on effortless, and vital to a 21-13 Buffalo win.
Jay_Fixit Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 We use the standing buffalo on the throwback. That's the regular helmet with the decals switched out. IE: One helmet. The Packers have to strip the decals off their yellow helmet when they wear their throwbacks instead of using a separate brown helmet. The Bucs can't wear their throwbacks because they have to use their one helmet and it doesn't match. The Rams use their current helmet and switch the gold ram decals to the yellow ones even though the color is a bit off.

What constitutes this "2nd helmet" so that you don't have more that "one" helmet?

What constitutes this "2nd helmet" so that you don't have more that "one" helmet? Maybe "you" can? That's something you should ask the Bills equipment manager about. However as it stands, the NFL will not allow a 2nd helmet.
reddogblitz Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 No, no, and no. The best decision the crappy Bills of the past 15 years have made was to go back to white helmets. No, no, and no. The worst decision the awesome Bills have made was to go back to white helmets.

Here's his '68 and '69 AFL helmet & HOF bio: http://www.profootba...x?PlayerId=192 How about this old school lid? This helmet is fantastic. I vote for this as the default team helmet for all games, INCLUDING the scuffs and imperfections in the bison design! Makes it look mean. I love all those bites taken out of the bison sticker!
The Real Buffalo Joe Posted December 16, 2014 Posted December 16, 2014 Couldn't they get a giant decal that goes around the logo on the helmet?
