David Harris Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 All I remember is pain when the Jets last wore this logo - the 80's and 90's were mostly terrible. I remember feeling fresh and clean when Parcells came in and swept this logo out. I was relieved because it felt like a clean break from the past. I think the logo looks cool but I still associate with the bad old days. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately many don’t share this opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 80s were awesome, and the uniform should have leg warmers below the knee to give it that 80s vibe. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible? 1980's: 4 Playoff Seasons in 10 Years (40%), 4 top-10 Offenses, 7 top-15 Offenses, 1 AFCCG appearance. Not spectacular, but pretty decent for Jets History. 2nd best decade/era in Jets History. Many of our all-time-greats (such that they are) played in that era. I'll take the 80's over any other decade apart from the 2000-2010 period. Many of those teams were actually fun! The 1970's, that was real horror. The 1960's too, other than that one glorious unlikely SB winning year. We won't even mention the post-2010 hell we're still mired in. The 90's weren't great, but by then neither was that version of the uniform, with all the black uniform elements and bad 90's stylistic updates to the 80's style. 80's and 90's had the same logo, but very different uniforms. Na, the 2000-2010 (Nuevo-Namath Era) was the best era, the 1980's second best. Both uniforms were great. The best year of of course was the SB year, but that was long before alot of us were born, it belongs to the truly old dudes, not us younger folks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I crossed out the combos I dont like Yes these are accurate. And yes there’s a black helmet. Then a throwback alternate helmet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, you're confirming that we're getting a Parcells-era throwback with a white helmet and the 1998-2018 logo?! What about the two helmet rule making this impossible? This would make three helmets: Green, Black and White? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teptep Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 5 minutes ago, SomebodytoAnybody47 said: Amazing. This is great news if true. Can you say anything about if the alternate throwback helmet will be paired with a similar alternate throwback jersey from 1998-2018 or will it simply be paired with the 80's legacy kit (I'm assuming white jersey and pants)? Thanks for these crumbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BornJetsFan1983 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 This might be the first year I can name where we have a good uniform and in the long scheme of things maybe not the most important thing but it still matters. The stupid design we just had was crap. We still won't have an actual logo for god knows why but at least we will have decent jerseys. Have you seen a framed Wilson rookie jersey?

Jetsfan80 Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I'd make fun of a thread about clothes going 14 pages, but I guess I have no leg to stand on for being the driving force of a thread about a QB3 reaching 24 pages. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
