To be clear, Jim Kelly started the push for red helmets because it was easier to find his WRs 

If that helps, do it. But not against the Chiefs

The Bills switched to the red helmets before Kelly. It was 1984 that they went to the red helmets. I think the reason was to help Ferguson find the WR's easier and throw less INT's.

Yes but the Bills were switching back ro white and Jim Kelly said no👎

I would be up for getting rid of the color rush.

 

Maybe create an alternate kit that is a throwback to the 90s to be used 1 game a season. 

 

 

The Bills' uniforms are pretty classy and honestly should never change.  I was skeptical of the white helmet when they made that change, but it is a great look.

If we do not create an alternate Kelly era throwback uni for the final year in Rich/Ralph/Highmark to say goodbye in the final season of the old stadium, then the business / marketing / design team is insane.

 

Have one or two games with these alternates per year and that’s all I ask.

Bring back the red helmets. We didn't go 0-4 with them.

Well, we went 0-4 vs the Chiefs in PLAYOFFS with the white helmet.

I'd rather pick the other poison at this point

The red helmet is OK for one game a year, but the white helmet is better. The charging buffalo stands out more on the white helmet. IMHO

Actually, we did go 0-4 with the red helmet. Those were our SB years.

Seriously guys, we never achieved anything with the white helmet. At least with the red one we went to 4 Superbowls. I also believe refs love red helmets.

Finally, someone drilled down to the root cause of our failure to advance. By the way, how did we do in those red helmets? Remind me.
