Love black unis on teams that don’t have black as a main color. Saw a black Cowboys jersey as a kid and honestly thought I’d see it on gameday one of the upcoming weeks.

Was very disappointed lol

The white helmet with the outlined star is cold blooded. Love the throw backs, but the outline makes it pop.

I don’t mind any of them. The Giants throwback is just kinda boring.

Should look nice with the color rush jersey. Wish they'd put the silver in the middle of the stripe to match the pants but it still looks great, especially with the white facemask.

I like the Boy's throwback, because it was what they really wore in the early days.

Did they ever not have the stripe? Just the bare OG star with nothing else would look stout.

With the stripe it looks like a Colts offshoot helmet

I count 13 teams since Dallas was listed twice, once as an alternative and once as a throwback.

Schefter in the 2nd tweet

*There are 14 alternate helmets, but only 13 teams that will have an alternate or throwback helmet to be paired with alternate, classic and/or color rush uniforms.

Actually all of them are decent. Except don't really care for the Bears, but not horrible. I don't get Washington's alternate helmet, as to why. They have no throw back helmet under the new name, and it has just a W in front. Lame.

I thought Denver was to have a throwback helmet as well. I guess they decided not to.

LOL,
I dont know, I am old , but not that old.
Started following the team in 1975, they had the new helmet design then.

I call that the double star with the outline because it's really a star inside a star. That white double star helmet would look great with the traditional navy jersey and the white pants. Clean!

Yeah the "double star" is a signature. It just doesn't look right to me, without it. It would look awesome with our navy jersey and white pants. Maybe Jerry should give us a job?

I like all of the throwbacks more than the alternates. This might be an over-50 thing.

But is there anything more cliche' these days than alternate uniforms that are black?

 

[TRUTH87]

so we have 2 helmets.. and 3 decals this season? i’m assuming the “double star” white helmet is for color rush?

 

[Established1971]

color rush is one of the worst developments I have ever seen in football

Every Cowboy throwback should have been burned and then banned after 1/15/1995.

My favorite is the old Bengals helmet below.....
