The Jets new uniforms

I really dislike the new helmet. i think all that shiny chrome thingies are fit only for arena football. I'm quite the traditionalist when it comes to football uniforms.

The new green is a lot better than what they used to have. But the execution of the uniform isn't all that good. The striping is very bland. The black alternative uniform is just horrible. No need for that at all if you don't have black as one of your primary colours, especially since it doesn't mix well with a cold colour like green.

Plus One. I don't care for many of the rule changes that really change the game like the PAT changes, No Sudden Death Overtime , Flag Football Pass Defense...

While some throwback uniforms were flat out awful - (i.e. Pittsburgh, Green Bay), the color rush and chromed look is a little over-the-top. There's something powerful in a simple professional uniform...

It also make it harder to compare players of so many different eras because of the disjointed continuity; while I appreciate more effective helmets, padding, materials, maintain the traditions...
