New Patriots helmet the worst?

[Seymour93]

I like our current and old helmets, but I agree with him that the best helmets are the Bengals, Eagles, Vikings, and Rams.

The Texans have the worst helmet. It's incredibly cheesy.

lol Is rest of their uniforms like that too?

Interesting article suggesting that our helmet design is the worst in the league and suggesting an alternative design.

A new helmet design for the Patriots? - Brainiac - The Boston Globe

That article references this article as the source:

That was funny. Oh they were serious?

The new one reminds me of Doonsbury before Nike redesigned the uniforms for that college football team.

OH MY GAWD....are you KIDDING ME??!?!?

Somebody call up the XFL and tell 'em their helmet's here.

 

[TennesseePatriot]

Agreed

I love our helmets

I also dig the Redskins' helmets and the Buccaneers', who are listed in the bottom three. Among the top ones listed are the Browns' orange domes. Really? Talk about a bland helmet...

 

[HarkDawg]

I think the Patriots helmets are perfect right now.

agreed



New design is hideous.

 

[TennesseePatriot]

I'd actually like to see this helmet appear again.

Simple is usually the best. Who cares if the helmet is bland.. the real action is inside the helmet. That's what defines the Patriots.

I think these helmets are the best your organization has had. Those alternates are ugly as hell. The flying elvis is cool.

Yah. Does it come with a magic lasso that makes the other team tell the truth?

That helmet would intimidate the **** out of anyteam LMFAO

YouTube - Funny football mishap! Great commercial

Oh, I thought this was serious. It's just based on some nobody who happens to prefer tacky helmet designs...who cares....

That Redskins helmet is pretty cool. Don't like the Bucs or Pats redesign.

A couple of years ago someone here changed the Elvis Patriots logo to a skull with red white and blue flames coming off of it so it looked like the flying Elvis. It was the coolest thing I had seen in quite a while. Whoever did it, please repost it and this should be the new logo.

There is something very very wrong with the new one proposed. It looks way too much like Wonder woman’s outfit. I get the lasso.

I totally agree. I really like that design for our logo. That said I still like our current logo/helmet just fine.

 

[Peachhead]

I'm not all that crazy about the current silver one. but those "replacements" are fugly.

 

[IcyPatriot]

I do like a few of the helmets:

The Tampa helmet:

Yes, I saw Peter Fonda wearing that helmet before.

Yes, I saw Peter Fonda wearing that helmet before.

What a seminal film that was! 1969.. the year America turned a violent corner.

What a seminal film that was! 1969.. the year America turned a violent corner.

One of the best movies ever.

The violence peaked in 1973 with the birth of one of the biggest Patriots fans in China.
