JinxedBill Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I like the all red ones. Just saying... 1

I'd LOVE the 90s jerseys... miss those red helmets I'm actually not a huge fan of the old red helmets but the mock up you have with JA in the red helmet, and the helmet being today's version, looks pretty darn good. I wouldn't mind them using that one as a throw-back once in awhile. Can we see a full version of that one with JA. Looks intriguing. 28 minutes ago, JinxedBill said: I like the all red ones. Just saying... I never thought I'd like that one in a million years but it actually works. Wouldn't work with the red helmet though. And they definitely should only wear the all blues or the all reds from October on. Something about not wearing white after Labor Day or something. I forget.
dpberr Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I'd be interested in the knowing the concept or idea behind the use of the black color by the OP. That's usually the most insightful part of an idea's storyboard.
BubbaT Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 What the hell is wrong with red, white and blue?

Or just borrowed from their model? I am not affiliated. I did see this design and thought it was a bit much but something made me like the concept with adding the black. I understand that Buffalo represents Red, White, Blue but I wanted to revise it a little but wanted to be more subtle with the design, but believe me, I love our uniforms now and I’ve been a die hard fan now for over 30 years, I’m not big on a dramatic change but I also love anything to do with design and just wanted to see how everyone felt of the concept.

Nextmanup Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I understand the idea behind a "black out" optional uniform. Many uniforms around the league would lend themselves to this idea much better than Buffalo's, however. Our red, white, and blue with a bunch of black simply doesn't work from an artistic perspective.

0017 Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I think a blue, red, and grey uni would look awesome!! But I also loved the red helmets, wish we still had them. 1
Zerovoltz Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 I read a marketing brief once (long story, just know I had a marketing brief in hand and read it) ....and it was pretty bland and boring stuff....and then it got kind of interesting when it mentioned jersey sales for sports teams (wasn't specific about what sport) .....according to this paper, the "blackout" type jerseys appeal to "low to middle class fans under age 35" ...not a shock, but it goes on to say, "black color schemes appeal to lower IQ fans" who might not otherwise be inclined to purchase a jersey. Went on to include a large section on black colored hats with sports logos selling well to that same population segment.
Doc Brown Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 As long as it doesn't come with Tyrod Taylor. You're not allowed to change helmet colors so you'd have to stick with white. I'd get rid of the blue on the jersey giving it a cleaner look. It would be better than the hideous red.
BillsfaninSB Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 247 did helmets in local university colors. Thought this one was interesting. Would never change the whites but this looked pretty good. 2
JAMIEBUF12 Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Waited most of my life to get the unis we have now.I feel the Bills current unis are the classiest in all of football!! 1 1 2
NickelCity Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Anyone else hear that tidbit from Beane a few months ago about bringing the 90s jerseys and helmets back as a throwback? He said something to the effect of "not yet, maybe next year...we need to prove something first." From whatb could glean he wants a good team to trot them out. Can't wait.

Don’t understand how he can. NFL allows only one helmet.

MJS Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 It's called black for the sake of black. There's no reason for it. Black is not one of our team colors, so we shouldn't have a black uniform. I think it's people liking the Raiders uniforms. Black is their thing. Not ours. 5 hours ago, Lurker said: Sorry, we're the Bills....not the Bears. Do the Bears have a black uniform now?
LeGOATski Posted September 28, 2019 Posted September 28, 2019 Not for me... They should go back to red helmets and update the logo, though
