I guess if you're gonna play like a college football team you might as well look like one.

Perfect.
Another helmet pic. To me it looks like some kid spray painted it. I am surprised the NFL signed off on this.

Are the helmets two-tone or do they change with the lighting?
The helmet in the first picture looks all gold.

No, look closely. Its has the black on it. Hard to see with the lighting

No. Our Uniforms are good the way they are.
Fixed it for ya LOL. I do like the black and gold helmet. Should have been more gradual tho
powda
The bridge between stupid and useless is short.
Except for the ketchup top and bottom combo.

The Jags....
The Dolphins look alright, and the Vikings going retro is cool.

Remember those tacky pickups from the 90's with the 2 tone paint jobs that looked crap? Same concept. Makes sense I guess I bet the mullet and z cavarrichis are still popular in Jacksonville too.
You don't see those paint fades on trucks these days, but least when you do they are even and gradual, which would not describe those helmets!

Go Texans!
I think that the half-gold and half-flat black helmet was just to show the two paint schemes but on the same helmet.
There's another photo where the entire helmet is gold.
There's no way they would do something so dumb looking. Then again, they put black tarps on empty spectator sections in their stadium...and have two guys in their war room.

OK, so after reading you guys' posts...and going back and looking at the photo again...I can now see that in this photo it DOES fade to black just in front of the jaguar's mouth.
My bad. I had thought that the darkness in that area was just lack of lighting.
That's pretty much a fugly design. I'm in the wrong business...I should be re-designing football helmet paint/design schemes. I don't know how this stuff gets past all levels of decision making in an NFL organization. At some point, shouldn't someone, somewhere, stand up and say "We can't fade a gold color to a black on the helmet. One or the other, but not both."???
Sheesh.

But the ketchup top with the blue pants looks badass. Try it in Madden for confirmation.

And as for classic vs. new unis... well, the Seahawks have nice new unis, but they have nice colors to go with too (not the ugly neon green, but Nike used that properly as an accent rather than a primary color) and Nike didn't go overboard with those.
I just don't like the palette the Jags have to work with. I hate gold, teal is situational, and black is okay. But the helmet looks like crap, though the black jersey is actually pretty decent (teal being an accent instead of a primary color)

Definately a 2 tone helmet as seen in the NFL uniforms leak photo. I don't like the Dolphins either. They should have stuck with the aqua blue facemask and from this photo is looks like they took the orange away from the helmet stripe. The logo is pretty lame also. I see a lot of Dolphins stuff on cars around here, I wonder how many are going to be updating to the new logo.

I may be having a brain fart but are there any teams that have two different color helmets, by that I mean two separate helmets, which they swap out with their uniforms?

Only with their throwbacks, I think.

Hey, I was the same way at first. I saw that picture and thought the helmet was completely gold. But someone told me to take a closer look and... yeah. That's fail.
Here's some more shots of it:
Horrible .. if you are going to do a 2 tone have the gold in front and the black in back. That way you can say the Jag is coming out of the shadows. The way it is now you can just say the Jag is fading into the darkness (which is appropriate).
They could have went with the gold with black jaguar spots (ala Bengals) and keep the logo where it is.

The new unis themselves are not bad, but the helmet is hideous. It looks bush league, and like Hookem mentioned, I'm surprised it was approved by the NFL.
In my opinion, the Titans have the ugliest uniforms in the NFL
Also, for the record, I really hate the Dolphins new logo and uniform.

It looks like somebody just took a yellow spray-paint can to a black helmet.

They had the woodgrain, with the fluffy velour seats. They were the equivalent of customized Vans.

But ran out of yellow spray paint. I'm in the wrong business too, this is ugly. Teal isn't that tough looking but the old unis look way better than this hack job.

It wasn't even nice wood grain on the interior it was like lacquered 2x4's just slapped on the dashboard and arm rests.
Here is a better picture of the helmet in the natural sun light. Much better than the terrible lighting they had at the reveal @ Everbank. http://i.imgur.com/GwrMQA4.jpg
I do like the new uniforms, the helmet should have been all gold or matte black.
