I thought the helmets looked good. Just trying to be positive.

Indeed. When the first pics of those popped up over the summer I wasn't too sure. But they did look really good on tv

Helmets don't look good. Matte isn't a good finish for cardinal.

Have to agree. They looked ok in person from a distance, but re-watching the game on tv, the red matte helmet doesn't match the red jerseys at all.

I liked 'em better than I expected.

Actually, if there was a way to get a medium ground between the shiny gloss and the matte, while matching the cardinal corrected, it'd be perfect. Not sure if such material exists.

Goodness. A little picky, aren't we? It is extremely difficult to match colors on different materials.

I agree, it's tough to match a red helmet to a red jersey. That's why I'm a fan of gold helmets like the throwbacks we wore a few years ago.
