what am I missing here? Only thing different on the throwback helmets are the decals and colors

My only guess is that throwback color schems and logos are on the older type helmets and the regular worn helmets are the newer style that they say helps prevent concussions which have already been prefitted to each players head specifically. It's the NFL though...You'd think they can afford new sets of helmets.

Jim Irsay tweeting a "big" trade is coming.

MJD?

Didn't Irsay tweet this same **** last year?

What became of that?

And Pablo the NFL now wants teams to wear the same helmet all season. Their concern with throwback unis is that the new helmets introduced with them might not fit a player correctly and could lead to more head/neck injuries.

Teams could still wear their throwback unis, but must wear the helmets they wore to begin the season. The Bucs' creamsicle throwbacks don't match their pewter helmets which is why they scrapped them altogether.

Whatever the trade is, the Colts are announcing it at 6:30

 

[shox23]

For Tampa their regular helmets are pewter and throwbacks are white, my guess is that the throwback helmets haven't been broken in yet, which they have to be broken in for a month I think before they see the field.

 

[MON5T3R]

Trent Richardson

 

[651akathepaul]

Because I like him and want him to stay. *nods*

LOLWUT

 

[shox23]

So the Browns are tanking we'll take TJ Ward in Philly.

 

[Humbled]

Well that came out of nowhere...

 

[Chester McFloppy]

Tank for Teddy in full effect.

Brian Hoyer and Bobby Rainey show.

 

[651akathepaul]

Browns cleaning house. Sucks for the Texans. Colts gettin' that division.

The throwback helmets are made with new style/technology helmets but the pre-fitting makes sense. I guess they'll have to get approved before the season starts next year ( if thats even possible)

 

[blackboyfly]

The Browns really passed on RGIII for Brandon Weeden and a 20+ first round pick from the Colts

 

[MON5T3R]

Is Joe Haden available?

 

[elpablo21]

Well damn, I guess Irsay wasnt drunk

 

[CP1708]

Holy ******g **** it's true.

I hate the Browns.

Trade away a shot at Julio
Draft a 29 year old rookie QB
Trade a top 5 pick 2 years in.


Freaking contract these idiots
