Bucs Bringing Back Creamsycle in 23' Due To Supply Issue, Will It Delay Bills Red Helmets

The Bucs announcement below talks about the return of their popular creamsicle unis:

Their twitter feed said it is delayed a year due to supply issues. I am wondering if that will impact the Bills return of the Red helmets.

Very strange that Nike needs more time to complete them because of supply chain issues.  Like, is there some specific fabric they don't just manufacture themselves?  

 

Still, the creamsicles will be nice to see again.  For a game or two. :D :beer:

Throw a red helment with the current All whites.  Place a 30 yr anniversary on the breast plate and your all set.  Growing up watching the 90’s Bills, red helmets are my helmets.  I know others dont like them.  I would prefer red helmets over the standing Buffalo.

When my brain crossed the creamsicles with the red helmets, the name that immediately flashed was Eugene Marve (RIP).  And I still don't really know why.  I know that he left Buffalo to play for the Bucs, but it seems like there was more.   Maybe it was just the bad trip like nature of the creamsicles and the red helmets occupying one singular thought...

So, is the red helmet thing official...or just speculation of hopeful fans?  Personally, I think their current helmet/uniform is the best...but it might be fun to see the red helmets here and there.  But, they really are kinda ugly.

 

 

Most all helmets of that era, save the Raiders, were ugly. Perhaps with a superior paint application on the modern helmet it may be more pleasing to the eye?

I never liked the red helmet, they started wearing them for a dumb reason. Everyone’s helmet in AFC east was white, so they thought changing to red would help Joe Ferguson throw less interceptions.

I agree, the Bills are in need of a new logo.

They won championships with the standing buffalo helmet.  Despite powerhouse teams on several occasions, no championships with the charging buffalo.  Coincidence?  Try going back to the standing buffalo for a full season and see what happens.  If that doesn't work, then get a brand new logo.

So that’s why we can’t beat the chiefs in the playoffs…?  Our logo

The lack of winning had more to do with Ralph Wilson not being a very good owner. I appreciate him for keeping the team in Buffalo all of these years and doing everything he could to ensure that they stayed in Buffalo after his death. But he simply wasn't a very good owner and his overall won - loss record reflects that.

I do not think they were bad, but the white helmets currently are far superior. I will say that with the way they can do the Matte helmets that could make the logo truly pop in red.

See through helmets!

This just means that Brady is coming back for one more season and does not want to wear that hideous uniform.

 

From the best advice thread: Just because you can, doesn’t mean you should. 

 

Some of those throwbacks are absolutely hideous! The Steelers have some awful stuff too. The Bumblebee stuff should be banned. I wonder if the players are embarrassed in some of those unis? They should be.

I don't believe in magic, just that the logo has always been poorly designed.

There is a foam shortage for helmets.  High school teams have been struggling getting helmets for a few years now.

 

Since the NFL prints money, there will be no shortage of football helmets available for them.

I wonder why could it be because Nike has taken their production out of the country & every thing they make is made in freakin CHINA ...

 

So then that means the Bills red helmets won't be available for another year or so right ??
