That would be a sweet helmet if it was all matte black or all gold. As it stands however, not so much.
How much money do you think they paid to have that designed?

I feel like the awful color blend makes the Jaguar decal stand out really uncomfortably instead of blending into the helmet.

No see it's "emerging from the shadows" like a jaguar on the hunt

never mind that the jaguar on the helmet is going into the shadows so

Wow, these do look like poo poo. The rest of the uni is pretty nice. I dig the numbering, it's so different than the rest of NFl that it's able to standout without looking too foolish.

I like the Dolphins new whites but that font looks like 1980's Reebok typeface.

I'm sorry, but I love those purple pants but I also unironically like this:

Remember that one time you totally botched that snap?

For real, that patch looks almost exactly like the Brooklyn Nets logo


I dig the Vikings jerseys, those look pretty sweet. I also like the Dolphins jerseys (that all white looks so awesome) but I agree with the Dolfans here that there should be way more orange. The Jags jerseys are just...eeeehhhhhhhh. The black and teal ones look okay, but the helmet just ruins everything that could have been good about them.

I concur. Calling that a gradient is being generous.

Nevermind that shit here comes Mingo!
The Jags helmet would look a lot better if it was black fading into teal. As it is now the contrast is too jarring and the gold on the helmet blends too much with the logo.

Also the Browns should make the orange pants brown jersey their full time home uni. Stick with the all whites away.

I hope Underarmour or whoever gets the NFL contract next have someone in the line of command that says "hey, uh... maybe not on this one."

edit to be positive: The Dolphins one is pretty good and The Vikings one is a huge, huge improvement.

That looks a lot better than I thought it would. Though going mostly black is a little bit :effort: in design, it's pretty snappy.

I like the Dolphins unis. The Vikings number font is weird. If they ditch the odd serifs and get the road stripes right they'd be back to being the Vikings. The Jacksonville one is awful. It looks like the result of a high school kid fooling around with some spray paint.

The Navy has probably the best multi tone helmet.

The current theory on the weird serifs on the numbers is that they're supposed to represent a longship sail. It seems like a prime case of a designer taking a theme too literally and Nike does have their awful thing where every team needs to have a unique number font. The new uniforms are still a big improvement, I just wish that Nike didn't try to get too cute with the numbers.
