What To Do About MY FAVORITE NFL TEAM HELMETS
By: Nathan Mallon | 23. Oct 2008
When I was a little kid, I think at times I would like a team just because their helmet and uniform looked cool. Even though I have been a die-hard Cincinnati Bengals fan since I was 8 years old, I really have always liked their orange helmet with black tiger stripes. I know some people hate it, but I’ve always liked it. For some people, just the site of it stirs up rage. When I was younger I used to collect the plastic football helmets that you could get out of the gumball machine for 25 cents. I eventually got them all and lined them up on my shelf in my room.
There are some teams that have changed the look of their helmet over the years and teams change the look of their uniforms more frequently it seems, but below I’ve listed some teams that I think currently have cool helmets and some that I think need to come up with something better.
Helmets I dig (in no particular order):
Chicago Bears – I love the solid navy helmet and orange C logo, great colors.
Cincinnati Bengals – As I mentioned above, I really like the orange and black tiger stripes.
San Diego Chargers – I like the lightening bolt, it looks tough.
Denver Broncos – There current helmets are much better then their old helmets with the big D on them.
Helmets that need to go (in no particular order):
Arizona Cardinals – They have a white helmet with the head of a cardinal on it, lame.
Pittsburgh Steelers – Maybe it’s because I dislike the team so much, but the helmet also annoys me. Maybe it’s because their logo is on one side of the helmet only and not both sides.
Tennessee Titans – I like their team colors I just think the logo on the helmet isn’t that cool.
What are your thoughts?

I like the bears helmet the best. I'd make that look good… put me on the team.
love the Uncle Buck comment at the end!
After some research I have decided that I agree with your helmet choices but I also like the Saints and the Panthers. Hopefully they are actual NFL teams.
Girls…..( I am nodding my head in disgust)
I used to have a helmet but it was for riding the short bus.
Thanks Shelby, the Saints and Panthers are actual teams and they have pretty cool helmets too I think. (I'm nodding my head as a proud friend)
DA BEARS have the best football team helmet I'm glad I'm not the only one. I do miss the old Patriots helmet that was sweet. You should do who has the best throwback. That will be sweet.
You have to put the Jacksonville Jaguars in the coolest helmet category. What is up with the Browns named after a color that's not on their helmet. Duh!!! What is so tough about a Dolphin logo as well. Cardinals, Dolphins, Browns, Saintsand Colts are just not tough enough names to be in the NFL.
I agree with you completely about the Browns, might as well put a turd on the side of their helmet. And the Jags do have a pretty cool logo. I like the Saints helmets and name, Colts is ok and Dolphins is ok although not very tough. Cardinals & Browns = lame.

Cleveland Browns had the most unique helmet in pro sports… Nothing on it. Bengals and Broncos had the best logos.
