SAR I Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 3 hours ago, TuscanyTile2 said: IMO, at the very least, the helmet needed a white stripe down the center. It's all green. Not a fan. I much preferred our previous uniforms. I would absolutely fire whoever was in charge of this embarrassingly bad rebrand. We went from one of the best uni's in the NFL to among the very worst. Those horizontal shoulder stripes are an abomination. But we've been through this before and, ultimately, nobody will care very much if they win. The shoulder strips aren't horizontal. They are 'curves' around the shoulder numbers. The helmet doesn't need a center stripe down the middle because there is a ton of white on the oversized logos on either side of the helmet as well as the raised white Jets logo dead center atop the facemask. The uniforms are very nice. Give them a chance. So far you've only seen them in domes and at night. Let's see how they look at 1PM on Sunday against the Bills. I've seen them at OTA's in the sunshine and they looked great. SAR I 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went with a gradient style helmet, one that changes shades dynamically, I believe we're the only team in the NFL with that type of technology. Plain green helmets look dreadful. Ours shift in color based on the lighting and coordinate with our green/white/black uniforms nicely.

The helmets are reflective, the temp of the color will shift a bit under different lighting. Daylight, they are perfect. Night time theyre a hair different. Daylight lighting is a different temp than artificial stadium lighting. Thats the way it is. Only the ultimate complainers would stare at pictures where the colors are negligibly off a hair. At night. A hair. As if theres a rule, helmet has to be the exact same shade as the shirts. As if anyone thinks metallic, reflective helmets are supposed to look exactly the same a a jersey. Do you hear yourself? Yes, I think I DO hear myself. I keep saying two people can see the same jersey or helmet. and disagree on whether they like it or not. It doesn't mean one opinion is right or wrong, it's personal taste. Apparently you don't feel that way. You can't grasp the concept that even though we're seeing the same thing, we are both allowed to feel differently about it. After nearly 30 years of marriage, a divorce, and now dating another woman for almost 5 years, I think I know how to play this game, and finally end this discussion... "Yes dear, you're right.

I really can’t comment on the new blacks, haven’t seen them on tv yet. I won’t lie though, I think black uniforms have been overdone, I’d have preferred grey as the third option. I think the green would’ve popped more. Grey would have been SWEET & differentiated us in the NFL too. Oh well, I've felt the Jets merchandise has always been an abomination & although I love the metallic Green helmet, I'm no fan of the pointy stripes.

Scott Dierking Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Hopefully, this means that the direction of this football organization is focused on the ON-FIELD product first and foremost. For my 46 years of fandom, the organization has focused primarily on, during individual periods: -Being lackeys to the league office in terms of football priorities and showcasing model tendencies in terms of football front office (Jim Kensil) behavior -Prioritizing players in terms of marketability rather than play ability. -Prioritizing where they play, rather than how they play. -Managing the club as a profit center, while making the on-field product secondary. -Failing to grasp front office trends and working the "system". -Treating ownership and management as a hobby, rather than a business with bottom line (winning) as the priority. -Operating in a vacuum, often rudderless. Is fan experience important? Of course. And it has a place. But this organization, for too long, has misplaced what many fans really want. And that is an organization that has a mission and leadership developmental system that is consistent, self-sustaining and can be identified by every single employee with attention toward those goals every day. Laugh as you will at the Raiders motto of "Commitment to Excellence", but when it was actually adhered to, they were just that. Laugh as you will at the Pats motto of " We don't give an "F" how we achieve success, we just will" but it just works. The Jets tried one time to actually focus on winning when Parcells was put in charge. And it almost worked. But then after Hess passed away, power hungry people (Parcells included in a large way) could not handle being in charge and lost the way to doing what was right. Get it right this time. Place the focus where it should be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was I thinking?" Are we good now? One more time. The helmet is a plastic item being painted. Its reflective, thats its appeal and why most like it, whether you want to be part of the vast majority that likes it or not, is that its shiny, changes tones in the light. The jersey is a dyed piece of material. They never, ever will be exactly the same color under different lighting conditions. Cant and wont happen. You can accept that or continue to make ridiculous claims that Glat or some other whipping boy were too stupid to see the colors are slightly different. As if Nike wouldnt have noticed. The light will change the look. Indoor or artificial lighting always, forever, changes the look of things. The color shifts. Period. You want to argue with physics go ahead. I posted the Barkley in his Giants uni, helmet was darker than his jersey. At night. Didn't bother with daylight shot, its a much closer match. Again, artificial lighting will never be the same as natural daylight. Never. Theyre no the same temperature. Physics You cant seem to stop with this ridiculous argument and then want to compare it to your marriage. Sorry that youve turned into one of those fans. You brought up the color being different, I explained why its just the way it is and now youve turned into a pussy spouse argument that you all or a sudden dont want to be a part of.

Sent from my iPhone using JetNation.com mobile app Pretty much. I figure a lot of people once the first wave of sales are over will revert back to purchasing the classic stuff, save maybe Darnold jerseys. The black seemed to be added for the sole purpose of wearing the color rush #stealth look, which just feels very amateur. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
