No, would be cool, just another marketing tool to sell merch.

Nope. Wasn't approved by the NFL as our alternate.

I'd love to see it though. They'd even look cool with our now illegal leather helmets.

NFL doesn't want to be like college and I don't blame them

[Monkeydad]

Nope, they have 32 brands to protect.

Also, Rams wearing 80s royal blue and yellow throwbacks with the new navy blue helmets...hope they change the horn decals to match at least.



I guess it won't look too far off except for the metallic. Will probably look bad because of that.

I wonder what the penalty would be if a team decides to wear an alternate helmet?

Slightly amusing prank on players.

According to Goodell...the punishment would be 53 concussions.

Last week..."Look Ma, all purple!"









Yuck...even worse with the extra pink.

Another issue with expanding to international countries with NFL teams...specifically the Jaguars...last week when they played in London, they kept the "Jags" patch on their jerseys. Certain terms we use mean other things in other countries.

In England, "jags" is an offensive term to insult someone, also used as "jag-off". It's similar to their word "wanker" in meaning and it usually used in place of the American word "idiot".

Nice move, NFL.

Well then is there a team more befitting of the term "Jags" then?

Great surprise yesterday.


They managed to pull it off despite the stupid helmet rule. Removing the stripes looked great!


I actually wouldn't mind them switching to this full-time with a few minor tweaks like the facemask color and logo consistency. With those flaws, it still looks great....awesome color scheme is probably to thank for that.

Glad they did this. I was certain with the new stupid helmet rule, those uniforms were dead. Nice compromise, Skins, it worked out well.



And better yet, we FINALLY WON in a throwback uniform! Maybe we'll wear them again...I'd love to see them vs. Dallas.

[Monkeydad]

I say add the new logo to the sleeves and change the facemask to a matching "old" gold and make it the new uniform!

I'd love it.

[skinsfaninok]

they should keep the stripes off

[Monkeydad]

Here's my proposal for a new uniform. Made the mask and gold in helmet logo match the numbers and used the new logo on the sleeves.
