Stupid matte helmets

Post by ERIK the PURPLE »

When will the "Braintrust" wise up and say, "Enough with the matte helmet look." Looks like our guys are wearing giant grape Tootsie Pops on their heads. The high fashion experiment is a bust. Glossy helmets are much much cooler looking. SKOL!

I like their matte helmets, maybe its just me but it looks like the helmet and the jersey are much closer to the same color then the old uniforms were.

I like the matte helmets as well. I dislike the funky font on the numbers though.

Count me in with those that dig the matte helmets.

I like it. I like the matte helmets too, although it took me a while to get accustomed to them.

I must update this to say that I also dislike the font. It's growing on me though.

At least it's not like the Bucs. The logo on their helmet is too big and who signed off on the digital clock font?

I'm okay with the matte. The throwback unis still look the best.

I wonder if we're ever going to see those again? Those were the best.

Same with me. As long as they keep the purple and the horn on the helmet, I'm good.
