    Compared to some of the other teams' uniforms these are pretty good.

    Yup, I won't complain. Back when they first announced it I thought for sure they'd have black numbers with all bright yellow uniforms.

    Who's bright idea was it to use a black background and turf?

    Like the color rush uniforms. They should wear the yellow helmets from the throwbacks they wore from '07-'11... and make them into an alternative home uniform to the traditionals... wear them twice a season.

    They don't want multiple helmets for safety reasons. Easier to dial in a player's helmet to their specific head size and shape whereas having multiple helmets for each player increases the risk of injury due to less wear and less fine tuning. When I heard that I was like you have got to be kidding me.apparently the wear and tear of a single game doesn't get taken into consideration let alone a season long campaign

    I'm not crazy about the color rush uniforms, but I'm glad they at least aren't like that.

    Well, I think that yellow helmet is ugly anyway, I don't need to see it being worn in a game ever again....

    What?!

    I love those helmets! I think it's a good break from the traditional and blends well with the uniform, no matter which one they wear.

    My favorite color rush unis. Couldn't stand looking at most of them--- like panthers/seahawks.

    I didn't realize it was a safety reason behind not changing the helmets. I can at least sort of get behind the theory on that. Although really, how hard would it be to dial in another helmet? What if there's a helmet problem during the game? Isn't the player then in jeopardy of not using a correct helmet?
    Why not apply a vinyl wrap to the outside of the helmet? You still are using the same helmet shell, just it looks different.

    Some of the all-white uniforms have not been too bad. So the Steelers should have been allowed to wear these...

    Yuck, yuck and double yuck.

    Sorry to disagree, but I think they are yucky. Maybe my wife is right. Im just an old grump. If something works, why screw with it? My Edsel is just fine.

    are they?
    i thought that was their uni in week 10 or something?

    if so, it is appropriate because the game is usually a bruiser and the field would like some giantass booboo
