Just saw that. Looks like he did a version of Justin Tuck's, who did a version of Ray Lewis.

[Trufance]

He wore it at the fanfest last night. Pretty cool

[Oilngo]

That's fricken nasty!!!!

[DannyShakes]

That's freakin awesome!

Predator??????????

[rmw10]

Truly defining facemask. There's no way his face is getting touched with that thing.

[MasterPattie]

Looks like Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

[dhendrix1303]

A mix of Shredder and Scorpion

[ekalbnz]

Man that is awesome! Some company needs to release an insert set with the different awesome facemasks some of these players are starting to get now.

[wingah]

Im in the minority I guess cause I think it looks ridiculous.

[Seahawks fan]

Optimus is that you?

but seriously any fear this face mask may put into an opposing players mind is quickly removed when the player looks at the rest of the uniform and sees he's playing the Cardinals.

One year with a good team and now the Seahawks are the greatest. Typical Seattle fan.

[DieselPack1996]

Ohhh snap^^^ i just put in my popcorn the movie is about to start hopefully its good

[drumstyx89]

He looks like bane from batman haha

[zonacats8]

would that even be legal?

with the one mask kinda on top of the other, it looks like a linemen could get his fingers stuck in between the two and have a finger just ripped right off

[Dielon]

Ill take the Arizona one anyday over that. Also, Im guessing that adds a ton of extra weight.

I just want to clear this up, that is not a helmet that the school had made, we will not be wearing that disaster of a helmet

Seriously. You know the NFL is an entertainment business when its fans think this is 'cool'.

LOL Classic

[tolrobb]

he's never gonna get a facemask penalty

[mstng99tim]

That is ridiculous and asinine.

I was thinking the same thing. Remember when football was truly played on the gridiron....now it's pre madonnas who want to look cool.

[duwal]

This...Is...SPARTA!!!!

hahahahahahaha...that's an awesome response right there :D

+1 to you! :)!

[badsims]

I think every punter and kicker should have to wear one like this. To make themselves look tough, LOL.

[TheHelmutt]

Not going to lie, I like it.

If I were a mediocre NFL player, I'd hook myself up with one of these ASAP to start a cult following fanbase and set myself apart. I'd imagine if a guy like John Kuhn had one of these he'd be immortal.

[LGBuffalo]

Looks like Shredder from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Beautiful! That's exactly what I was thinking!

Love it!

Get rid of concussions? Get rid of face masks - they'll stop leading with their heads really quick. No player today wants hockey-face with missing teeth.

[sportscards0513]

I want to get one to play with this upcoming season.

The still would not appear tough. :p

[TheLegacyOf34]

Cool looking but do you really need that much protection? Mosquito phobia? :D

[Headbando5]

I like the look of it personally, but hate Darnell Docket ahahah. Bobby Wagner is getting one similar this year. Although, it appears to have a little less diagonal protectors.

Glad they did it.

[fullmetal]

I didn't agree with much of Paterno's rhetoric, but I agreed with his logic that removing helmets from the game would make the game safer.

The NFL should follow the lead of the sport it originated from, rugby.

Remove the weapon from the game completely.


The guys who wear the 'super' masks do so because they are the worst eye gougers and know that revenge is on the way.

Ray Lewis and Justin Tuck are eye gougers? News to me but I like it :)

Regardless I thought the masks were clownish

Would be awesome to watch, hockey players hit just as hard and have no face mask so I don't know why the NFL players can't learn to lean with there shoulders to hit instead of there head.

[The Card Album]

Thank god these facemasks have been banned. What a joke.

[TASS]

Im in the minority I guess cause I think it looks ridiculous.

I'm with you absolutely ridiculous looking, is it even legal by the NFL standards for uniforms and equipment?

I see above where they have been banned! :)!

Likely.

In a pile up anything and everything happens, each and every time. Eye gouging, nose stabbing, lip and teeth pushing, groin shots, finger breaking

Does that crap really happen? If that does then these are bigger P***** than I first thought.

[sljock53]

That's on fumble scrums.

Most of the eye poking is accidental when guys are just trying to make plays. A lot of O-linemen get poked by D-linemen by accident
