I just read the rules about headsets in football. Only the NFL allows the use of coach-to-player radio communication. (not college, HS etc) One player on offense (always the QB) and one player on defense (usually a middle linebacker) are allowed to wear a helmet with speakers. The communication is 1-way only (coach to player) The coach transmitting to the player must be on the sideline (not up in a booth) The comms go dead when the play clock hits 15 sec. If one team loses comms, the other team must stop using comms.
I watch hockey and follow it alot. I think the quote of a old school player rings well for the NFL as well. "If you want to avoid head trauma, stop making the equipment so good that you can't feel your hit." "They have made it so good, they have put man made missles in a playing field."
My dad was wearing one of those face masks in high school in the 1950s. It broke near the anchor points. The mask came up and broke the bridge of his nose.
I don't care what team would make this video because it's still interesting to see how the NFL went from player hurt to every god damn play to less injuries.
I think they did a study that found out that the addition of facemasks increased injuries due to players using their helmets to hit opponents without as much fear of injuring themselves. Rule changes were added to try and mitigate this.
0:16 Paul Brown, the 1st head coach and namesake of the Cleveland Browns, invented that type face mask to protect his QB Otto Graham. It wasn't practical: Graham said it was tough to breath through the plastic which also fogged-up. So, Brown asked Riddell to create the face-mask at 0:26 which he patented and got royalties.
For some reason i like helmets that have player's number on it. Some teams dont have it but colts helmet number are the biggest and most visible which make it my favourite nfl helmet - not a colts fan
Crazy how the exterior design of the helmet (other than facemasks) went largely unchanged until the 2010s. You could probably put a 2000s facemask on a 1950s helmet and to the untrained eye it would look like a 2000s helmet.
The only difference is the padding on the inside and materials possibly but since the helmets already do their job there’s only room for little improvements over time

By the way I used to love the Baltimore Colts! That 70s helmet looks just like Mike Curtis. But you should have used him in the 60s since he was such a stud in the late 60s.
The more the protective the helmet , the more they used the head as a weapon. Rugby doesn't seem to have as many players with head injuries. It will take a whole generation to change the way tackling is done in football. Even youth leagues are teaching rugby style or if you look at it, the way tackling was taught 70 years ago
And played pop warner, jr HS, HS and Div1 FB and after doing so for +/- 12 yrs, the thought of wearing a helmet now gives me twinges of anxiety and claustrophobia
@@andrew7861 no, it wouldnt. NHL has already approved it to begin in 2024, and the current helmets have been requested multiple times for additional facial protection. What you said makes no sense, considering the fact that players already cover their entire face, and that every major institution that studies impact protection, say that full facial masks are the safest... Which is ironic because full frontal masks are banned unless you are "medically exempt"
@@andrew7861 you dont really have a point. You think it limits vision and movement, but you cant deny actual statistics. You're "point" is more of an opinionated statement more than anything else. Darnell Docket Justin Tuck Brian Orakpo All are examples of medical exempted helmets. No issues, with players asking if they coupd wear the similar, only to be denied.
TheEvrLastingGmr YT I believe they ARE the ones you put on when you go on the planes... The point of them was to basically provide no protection and get you killed.
@@ballisticwolf7463 actually they did provide some level protection and it could be argued that when people wore those helmets in football they were more careful on how they tackled because of less padding they were wearing but hey just my opinion.
The 1990’s helmet is in my opinion the coolest looking helmet with the blue face mask and white helmet with a blue line down the middle. They should wear that as their away helmets
Hey, Wanting to know what the plastic helmets that are from 1950 to 1970, Well go to HelmetHut.com or there store, GridironMemories.net, or ebay. I HATE THESE NO-WARE BARS IN THE HELMETS THAT THEY MAKE so we took them out, (not easy) But, Yeah
The guy looked so confused I think the back story about this was they picked up a homeless guy and groomed him and then they did the vid and just let him ho
The guy is supposed to have a straight face the whole point of the video is to show how the football helmets looked on the players back in the day the guys expression has nothing to do with the video
I did a report in 6th or 7 th grade on the history of football and the helmets took like 1 pg and a half of a 4 pg paper . It was printed on MLA format
That 1970 helmet my middle school still be rocking those😂
my youth football, team same
IDM even for games?
Mine be rocking 2000s
I just rent a speed flex
In our school we have 2 1980 we call it the scary helmet only because it goes to the toughest on our team
Damn, from 1920-2010 this guy looks like he hasn't aged a day.

For the maximum amount of protection I prefer 1920's helmets
Just an Illegal sellin oranges well if you think of it, less helmet hits would occur, so there would be less concussions
NoGa No
Gamble Andrews Modern helmets reduce the force of impact by about 73% compared to no helmet, while leather helmets only reduce the force by 27%.
Yorkshire Ball it's a joke dude
Lol
Fun fact: the green sticker on the back of the helmet means there is a headset inside so the QB and the coach can talk to each other.
neat
I had no idea thats what that ment. Thanks!

That 1950s visor has to be super dangerous. It could just literally shatter in your face on a big impact.
That’s why it’s thick plexiglass or possibly plastic
Happens in hockey if a puck hits you it won’t shatter but it will push back into your cheek nose or eye and cut you.
@@slapshotjack9806 yeah and? Plexiglass and plastic shatter.
@@slapshotjack9806 they were banned after only a couple of years, specifically because they shatter. Especially in colder temperatures.

Oceanicbill123 except it's not like that
Not really though
People use to die from playing the game
It goes people getting hurt to people still getting hurt
I think they did a study that found out that the addition of facemasks increased injuries due to players using their helmets to hit opponents without as much fear of injuring themselves. Rule changes were added to try and mitigate this.
The 1920s one was probably the most comfortable one
No the 90s
Unless you’re getting hit
Won’t be comfortable when you get hit lmao.

My question is HOW DO ALL THE HELMETS PERFECTLY FIT HIM 😭
They probably get the sizes to fit him before they film.
The padding can be swapped for other sizes.
Look at the 1920's helmet again, that thing is way too small for this guy's head.
@@Riley_Mundt naw in the 1920s they would of said "fits like a glove seeeee"
I've been looking for the pre 1955 Riddell helmets like this one with the bulging sides. 0:25
Why would you look for one of those
1950's: Told coach my SpeedFlex couldnt fit
This guy looks like he needs to wear a helmet daily
Dude looks like bootleg Andrew luck with that last helmet on
he prolly wore one of his helmets
It is Andrew lucks helmet...
The helmet said 12 too
he does
0:24 that’s a glass face mask
Which means it can shatter and all the glass pieces go all over your face.
It would hurt a lot
Elsa Warouw it is probably non shattering glass which means it can crack and break into 2-4 pieces but not shatter
Imagine that but covering the whole face, that would be interesting
It's clear platstic
the single bar helmet is probably my favorite
The 1950s visor is tuff
Now the speed flex and vicis helmets are great additions to the timeline
Proof that our grandparents were WAY tougher than us…
