Maybe it’s just me but I LOVE the matte finish helmets with no stripe. Wish it was the new look.


Who let the Dawgs out???

I have said this since week 1 of camp. I really like the all orange look.

Maybe bring a stripe around the bottom edge of the helmet, narrow on the sides, and wider across the back of the helmet. However, I really like the minimalist look of the all orange helmet.

I like the stripes, but I'd be okay with the solid orange

To me, it's all about the awful jerseys

I think worrying about this team winning games is far more important than being some wannabe fashion police.


Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

Fashion police? That’s what commenting on the helmets is? I think the misguided soul here is the one who thinks worrying about whether this team is winning games or not is actually an important aspect of their life, and apparently I’m not the only one who likes the helmets.

So are cheerleaders next on your list of wants and likes?

Yeah, I'd say the team getting some wins is FAR more important than what their helmets look like.

Says the guy who thinks the helmets are important enough to post about?

lmao

Oh the irony.

How much worrying do I have to do before it starts to impact our win total?

At least it has something to do with the actual game. lol We tried the entire "uniform change" thing. In case you forgot, we actually had fans saying that would make some difference in the W/L column. lmao That it would be some kind of motivation and cast off the old, losing ways.

Now it's the, "Oh, the helmets look so good without the stripe!"

It's hilarious!

Jesus, lighten up PIT. A lot of people like the helmets. Full stop.


Browns fans are born with it...

I wondered who was in charge of window-dressing.

Good to know.

I like them. I prefer stripes, but it wouldn't bother me if they stayed.

I'm a traditionalist and I like something I can count on. The uni's have been all over the place, mostly the ugly place. The helmets have been the true constant. I'd prefer they not change them.

I like the new helmets. I wish we'd keep 'em and use the striped ones as throwbacks a couple times each season. OTOH, I really don't care that much.

btw pit, you're being a bit anal retentive on this issue. Don't sweat the small stuff.

I agree w/lamp and water. I see no correlation to the uniform and our record, but I like the look of the plain orange matte helmets.

I know this will upset some, but I think the striped helmets are hideous.

I would like a reduction of the brown and orange uniforms. More orange is okay. The brown jerseys are okay. I just don't like the mix. I don't like Tootsie rolls. They look like little turds in an ugly wrapper. LOL

Highlight one or the other. Stop mixing those two ugly colors together.

The new white jerseys are ok, the new brown ones are awful. I'd rather go back to the old-school jerseys.

I never sweat the petty stuff. I only pet the sweaty stuff. I more poke fun on threads like these than actually give a damn either way. I just think stupid stuff like this doesn't really make any difference.
