You have no idea how much garbage I collected around the net, when a lesser, normal ankled gent couldn’t hack it. 2

Mango Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 15 hours ago, BillsFanForever19 said: These are just custom made helmets by TSE Buffalo for autograph signings. They aren't anything that anyone connected to the Bills or the NFL are doing. Just a piece of independently made merchandise. Yeah, it seems like OP is the real driver of this thread otherwise it would have petered out. A lot of "well what would you like to see?" or "what designs do you like?". I wouldn't be shocked if OP is actually Dylan Young, the original designer , or if he works for TSE. Regardless, this thing is a swing and a miss. The Bills currently have one of the best uniforms in the league, helmet included. I like the white way more than the red and I have since day one. Blue could work, but not this one. 1 1
gobills1212 Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Riddell makes are markets many different types of helmets for each team for autograph collectors. This, ice (all white), shadow (all black w red outline) as different options for people to get signed and display. This is one of those options and nothing more fwiw
Straight Hucklebuck Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Bring back the Red End Zones and the Red Helmets. And ditch the 2002 era darker blue. That shade of blue should never have been in the Bills jerseys to begin with.

On 8/23/2021 at 2:41 PM, First Round Bust said: the blue look needs work, maybe make most of the helmet the same shade of blue and work in some red and white for boundry lines and contrast... How about the red standing Buffalo with Nickel silver outline to set off from the blue, with red and nickel silver stripes to go with the throwback all whites?
Mango Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Found a keeper guys! But seriously, I can get behind the City of Buffalo Flag design once in a blue moon. https://www.trainwrecksports.com/5-concept-helmets-the-buffalo-bills-need-to-wear/ 1 1
rockpile Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Only works well if they wear the blue helmet with the red pajamas uniform. <gag>
Bookie Man Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 Red Buffalo would look better. Still kinda ugh though.

I was sort of proposing the exact inverse of the red with blue standing Buffalo they illustrated, except silver for the face mask instead of red.. Edited September 1, 2021 by BuffaloBob 1
cba fan Posted September 1, 2021 Posted September 1, 2021 (edited) Bills just need to resize the logo back to the red helmet size and get ride of the mullet. They downsized the logo 15% as NFL insisted they needed the space to put NFL stickers, US flag?, concussion stickers, on back etc etc...real reason was the mullet added. I call BS on NFL statement as Bucs just started using a helmet logo you could see from outer space.(Bucs since downsized a little and looks better) So enlarge Bills logo 10% instead of the 15 and call it good. ??

turftoe Posted September 2, 2021 Posted September 2, 2021 We currently have the best looking helmet ever. Period.
ChronicAndKnuckles Posted September 2, 2021 Posted September 2, 2021 Looks like some BS I'd create on Madden 🤮

I also like the Rockpile Red helmet but I think they'd have to go with dark grey pants and red jerseys. Not historically accurate but would definitely look "retro." 1

Buffalo could be the first movers in the NFL with it. The NBA does a bunch of city specific uniforms.

The NBA does a bunch of city specific uniforms. that might be fun. Works better in sports that play many many more games. NFL wants to keep the main brand(which is helmet and logo) front and center as much as possible. This is why they denied the Seahawks desire to play with home and away helmets(1 navy 1 silver w same logo) back when they changed to current look. Fan poll then choose Navy. Would be interesting to see home and away though. But most likely would only allow the helmet color to be reversed. Not all these alternate helmets you see in NCAA football. https://bleacherreport.com/articles/941079-the-seattle-seahawks-and-their-nfl-uniform-changes-over-the-years-1976-present Edited September 4, 2021 by cba fan 1

I'm not even kidding...... would look good next to the 1994 Thanksgiving game "Ralph is cheap" throwback. Edited September 4, 2021 by loyal2dagame
