r00tabaga Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I am just ranting here but I had a hard time distinguishing between all of the white AFC helmets in the probowl. Between the Fins, Jets, Titans, Bills, Colts, etc I couldn't tell who was who. I know of 4 teams that are getting uni Nike redesigns this year (Jax, Miami, Bucs & Vikes) and wish we would ditch the "overly" blue. We had it right in the 90's with red socks & helmets. It was classic. The red endzones were iconic. You knew it was the Bills the instant you saw a highlight. We could still do the 60's throwbacks for a few games as I like those much better than the current set. Just miss the red. Anyone else just want the 90's set back? Edit: I believe you need to wait 5 years for logo changes, not uni redesigns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucci Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Nope. I grew up with the white and very glad they went back to them. Uniforms look much better....now if only we could win more games......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorWideRight Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Terrible idea! Keep the helmets white and look like a pro team! Red is o.k. for pee wee league, but has no place in professional football (NFL). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r00tabaga Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) I don't hate the new blue ones. I just love the 90's ones the best. We just look like everyone else now. Just look at the 2 posters above. One has the white and one has the red helmet as their avatar. The red is more Buffalo to me.

swnybillsfan Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 i have always liked the red helmets, i grew up watching the bills of the late 80's and early nineties. the uniforms were great with the red, white and blue. the exciting teams and constant playoff and superbowl appearances didn't hurt either. but having said that, i like the look of the white helmets. just get rid of the collars on the unis and i'll be happy.

NorWideRight Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I used to like the red Atlanta Falcons helmets... Really.. Did you happen to notice Atlanta woke up and smelled the roses. They got rid of those gaudy dumb looking red helmets YEARS AGO! But then again Buffalo is always 20 years behind everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing like watching the old highlight reel of Steve Bartkowski throwing in those gawdy red helmets! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seq004 Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 The white helmets look sooooo much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buftex Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I think the switch to the white helmets was probably the first thing the Bills have done, in years that almost everyone liked...so switch them back to red, so we can enjoy the Pro Bowl more? I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedstrong Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 As you can see from my avatar I like the white helmets, but even in the late seventies I was hoping we would go to red helmets. More agressive, you know, like football. And for the fellow who ridiculously posited that 'red helmets have no place in pro football'- I guess being the best team in pro football for the better part of a decade doesn't count, huh? As we approach championship status again, people will clamor for the championship look. Red. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
