As I remember, the reason the Bills went from a white helmet to a red one, was so Kelly had an easier time spotting the red helmet of his receivers, than the white ones. This switch was early on in the Kelly-Levy era.

Should have never changed them from Red. The red ones look badder.

 

The word you're looking for is "worse" -- badder is poor grammar.

 

Repeat after me: "The red ones look worse. The red ones look worse."

Nope.

 

Ferguson, and Kay Stephenson. I seem to recall it was done because Fergie was color-blind, and every other team in the division also had a white hat at the time. The red was dark and would provide differentiation.

I think the white helmets look way better. Just a classic look.

 

Don't care if it's supposed to look "retro" or not. It just looks better.

 

White blows the red out of the water. Why people want to mess with the best uniform in Bills history is beyond me.....

The charging buffalo really pops out on the white helmet, which is why I like it the best. No to the red! Preference is probably based on what you grew up seeing. The Bills sucked in the red helmets too before Polian came along.

I say we get red shoes, blues shoes, and white shoes. Same for pants, then the shirts, then the helmets. We alternate every game with no rhyme or reason. One week all red, then blue, then white. It will be chaos, anarchy. Cats and dogs living together. It will be crazy.

 

We'll mess with the colorblind fans all year.

 

Then again, we could just finally put a good team together and start winning. Nah, let's stick with the shock and awe with color changes.

 

Just kidding everyone. I don't care what is the color of the helmet. They all look cool.

What about green or gold helmets? Something completely different from the rest of our scheme, that'll throw everyone off.

White helmet all the way. Love the white helmet. White w/ red buffalo...that's the best helmet in the league and I'm really not being biased b/c I readily admit the red is below average.
