Best Williams Available Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Hazy memory but I seem to recall they play well historically blue-on-blue. Maybe it only happened once though.

So I find it somewhat unlikely that there is a reason other than the Bills organization simply don't want to use the red helmets. Sadly. They just changed the striping on the helmets. The color remains the same. The bills do the same when they wear their throwbacks. Unfortunately the league has a rule in place that only allows one helmet color to be used throughout a season. 1 1

BubbaT Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Hate the all reds and the all blues. Give me blue on white every game. 1 1
Bookie Man Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 How about red top and blue pants or versa vice? That'll blow everyone's mind. 2
Locomark Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 All blue > all red >milk man all white but combo of white and blue is always best 2

MJS Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Not my favorites, but I don't mind. I like that they switch it up.

CircleTheWagons99 Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 I personally don’t like the red helmets. Was saying for a couples years they should go to the current helmet. Was really happy when they did. Just looks better to me. 3
BillsfaninSB Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Can’t stand the all red or blue uniforms. We have very classy uniforms when they wear the white pants. Why do they do this? It annoys the hell out of me.

So I find it somewhat unlikely that there is a reason other than the Bills organization simply don't want to use the red helmets. Sadly. Here is article from this year on one helmet rule https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfls-silly-one-helmet-rule-throws-wrench-in-throwbacks/ar-BBVpnSG The league, citing concerns regarding head injuries, began limiting players to one helmet per year earlier this decade. This means that any throwback or alternate uniforms must rely on the base color of the team’s one helmet. On one hand, one helmet is good, because the ongoing Nikefication of the NFL surely would result in some teams having umpteen helmets. On the other hand, why not let players have a second helmet? If it’s the same make and model as the helmet the player already wears, what’s the risk? Perhaps it’s an issue that the owners will take up at the May meeting, given that there’s still time to plan another widespread throwback program for the league’s 100th season, allowing teams like Tampa Bay to break out Bucco Bruce, New England to open up Pat Patriot, the Titans (not Texans) to slap oil derricks onto white (or sky blue) helmets, the Seahawks to resort to silver, the Eagles to mingle in Kelly green, and the Vikings to ditch the matte finish for old-school shiny purple plus two-dimensional horns. Maybe they changed the rule for anniversary year (I would think we would have heard that news), teams are able to file exceptions or teams repainted them I do not know. 1 1
Doc Brown Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 1 hour ago, Buffalo Barbarian said: that yellow isnt the normal yellow of green bay. It actually is which is bizarre as the decal really masks the ugliness of the helmet. They had to stop wearing the brown helmets when the league instituted the rule in 2013. They can't paint them because it takes too long to dry. Apparently. Dumb rule. 2 2
WizdomCalling Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 Throw this combo in the trash! ? Let's just go with the Blue tops with white pants for home games. All whites for away games. If we HAVE to wear the red uni ... Red top with white pants. If we go with this 3 sets we'd win best uni combos in the league.

If it were me , I'd alternate the all whites (standing bison), all blues and all reds. guess I like color
SoCal Deek Posted October 24, 2019 Posted October 24, 2019 11 hours ago, Limeaid said: Because it is required to use same helmet each week unless it is damaged. You cannot switch between helmets and repainting helmets and then repainting them again is a lot of work. It’s not all that much work anymore. A friend of mine owns part of a company that’ll place a full helmet decal over the regular helmet. They’re not intended to be permanent but the decal will last for a week. It was originally marketed to high schools and other programs having shallower pockets for application during homecoming or rivalry weeks. Look it up. Pretty darn cool idea really. Gamedayskinz.
