Blue helmets? Either a marketing gimmick or a real thing.

FFS, here we go again with these stupid concept helmets.  We currently have the best uni's in the NFL.

 

There are a few iconic uniforms out there that should not be messed with, and the Buffalo Bills uniforms are at or near the top of that short list. PLEASE just stop trying to mess with greatness!!!

 

EDIT: While I’m at it, I’ll throw in the old Chargers and Raiders uniforms as members of the “Leave It Alone” list.

I wouldn't mind seeing these

 

 


I believe that these alt helmets were commissioned by Riddell, so there is some legitimacy behind them (they aren’t just some random fan design.)

 

I personally like the helmet color a lot, but as others have already pointed out, it just doesn’t work with the logo. There’s no contrast. 
 

Now, if they took the blue helmet and stuck a throwback white standing buffalo logo on there, then they’d have something. That would look great.

I am good with any color helmet as long as it doesn't have that "grazer" on it.

 

Hopefully they threw that far enough back that we never see it again.:thumbsup:

 

 


I’m with you.  The charging Buffalo is still the best but seeing some concepts is fun to look at.

The charcoal helmets with the "Ohio State" unis are dope tho.

Red helmet, blue jersey, white pants, white socks is a really clean look I like to do in Madden....

It concerns me that you and I agree on this- it probably means we both have bad taste

What about the helmet I linked to? A white buffalo looks much much better on a blue helmet. Actually looks fresh. 

Yours is good but not with a blue jersey, if it was the all whites this helmet might look great.

Make this happen. It’s so fresh. 


 

 

Please No - this is horrible - Sorry, but that white Buffalo is gross.  The Ugly Blue on Blue popped more.  This looks like some weird HS helmet.

Yes, blue helmet with white jerseys.

Really? I guess everyone has different tastes. I thought this actually looked really good.

Sorry - yeah - it really is not my cup of tea.  I do not like the way the Blue and the White look together.  The Blue is to bright and the White looks muted.  I do not think the 2 colors work together.  
 

It might be ok with a white Jersey, but overall I think it is a huge downgrade.

This would be the only combination I’d be ok with. Blue helmet for the all white jerseys games, but maybe as an alternate so it’s not a permanent thing. BYUs jerseys always popped. All blue will just look like mega man lol 

It looks no worse than the Giants color scheme.

I think if the red streak was white it look a little better. 


 

The red streak looks wrong and I think the Blue is wrong.  It just does not look like a Bills helmet - the colors just seem off and I don’t feel they go together.

Maybe that’s the problem - I think the Giant’s uniform are terrible.  The Bills look classic - The Giant’s Helmets are terrible with their uniforms.

I personally have no issue with the current white helmet with red standing buffalo. Just looking for alternatives to wear once in a while.

Sad that these horrible helmet color graphics keep being touted as something desirable, it’s like moving your team

to New Jersey and calling yourself the NewYork Jets or Giants, whoever keeps doing these needs to be beaten about the head and shoulders with a plastic baseball bat repeatedly…,

 

I may have not been clear, these suck! Now I think that gets my point across nicely.

 

Go Bills!!!

 

 

Aluminum.

Logo doesn’t pop, looks like an arena football helmet, and feels like something associated with Billy Buffalo…

Hideous. Looking forward to seeing the 90's throwbacks next year, though.
