I remember that being pointed out during the uniform reveal, it's just a limitation of the new material. Teams with shiny colors that switched over lost the shine basically, I suspect this is why the Raiders and Eagles (and a few other teams) didn't switch materials.

That makes sense. I was just surprised how matte their jerseys looked as well. It wasn't just the pants losing the silver, the jerseys had no glimmer at all.

A full faced motorcycle helmet isn't catching the sun, or stadium lights and reflecting it back into your eyes. The sun reflecting off the facemask is one reason why a lot of NFL teams dropped using white face mask and changed them to grey. In fact the only NFL team I can think of that still uses white is Kansas City.

But on the other hand the helmet looks like the grill of my F-250 so gently caress yea, brother.

The Bucs really have been blessed with some awesome designs. Creamsicles were the best but as far as updates go the Flag + darker red looks fantastic too. They updated right.

I still can't get over the horrible updated seahawks look. I can't stand it. I thought I'd get used to it over the year but I didn't. Plus those Gray jerseys were the absolute worst.

The Seahawks update has been very divisive. At first I didn't like it much and I thought our old unis were the best. Once the seasn started I started to become accustomed to them. Now I look back and can barely stand the old jerseys. I absolutely love the new jerseys, especially the wolf grey. The new unis are slick as hell and entirely unique in the nfl.

Oh don't worry about it. I'll still take any critique you have but you can forget about if you want. But I sorta forgot about that whole experiment.


The blue ones grew on me a bit. I liked the darker color but it just looks so different from every other uniform it just feels off when I look at it. It's unique sure, but I think they could have made it a little more conforming and still given it a unique flavor. If the whole league looked like that it would be pretty nice though. The Gray however we completely disagree on. It looked like someone forgot to wash the white uniforms for a week. They just looked dirty. The white ones themselves felt unremarkable. Blue ones were the only ones with any personality.

Would you like the grey more if they were a darker shade? I think it would look cool, and can definitely understand if your problem is that they are too light.

The shape looks nothing like the cards logo even as a blur. And we need to see the full uni before we can claim they will look like the cards.

The cards logo curves upwards if anything, and the spikes fly off towards the sky. From the looks of it they took the current flag and curved it into one down arc to better conform to the helmet and make the waving look more dynamic. I actually like what I can see so far, but I'll withhold final judgement until thursday

Obviously the logo looks nothing like the Cards. But a white helmet with a small reddish logo on it is what the Cards is. From a distance there will now be nothing unique about this helmet. Before they had an entirely unique metallic pewter helmet which was easily recognizable. Now they're just another team with a boring white helmet.

It's hard to say from the image, but it looks like there might be a unique stripe/texture going down the middle. That would help. For the distance argument who cares? Why are you looking at tiny helmets from a distance? If you see them at a distance you'll probably also be seeing the uniform, which I assume will be very beneficial towards identifying the team. Nike, for all their faults, is good at making something stand out. I think you're getting too worried over a blurry picture.

Who cares? I care. Duh. Usually the game isn't zoomed in on the players and we are actually watching a view of the field from a distance. My complaint isn't about the uniform as a whole, but about the helmet that to me looks rather boring and not as striking as the old helmets.

My complaint isn't about identifying the team, but about one of the few truly unique uniforms in the NFL being traded in for a look that, so far, does not impress me. Keep in mind that this is my opinion, which is obviously subjective.

You mentioned that Nike makes uniforms that stand out. To my knowledge we only have three so far, the Seahawks, the Jags, and the Dolphins. While i love the Seahawks unis and i feel they are a significant improvement over the old ones, the other two uniforms are absolute poo poo. You yourself did a pretty good takedown of the Jags, and I don't know if any of us felt the Dolphins redesign was a good idea.

Also saying that we see the field zoomed out proves my point that we will see the entire uniform at once, so white helmets shouldn't be as big a deal as long as the uniform still stands out along with it. That remains to be seen. If we got lots of pewter and creamsicle it'll be hard to confuse it with the Cards. If we get white pants and a red jersey, then we might have a problem. At this point I have faith in Nike to be bold enough, even if it looks goofy.

:psyduck: I already said it had nothing to do with confusing the uniforms. That helmet looks boring as poo poo from that photo and right now I am upset with it. Eifert Posting pretty much nailed it.
