Really ugly. Looked like a hockey player. Painful to even look at.

Why do punters only wear a half facemask? Does it really obscure their vision that much? Do they haev that much extra need to see clearly, moreso than a receiver or a QB?

My guess is the 'skins punter will be switching to a full mask.

I've wondered that myslef. Speaking of the game, I'm not much of a Dallas fan but was glad to see them beat the Redskins for the tenth straight time.

BTW, when did the Redskins steal Florida State's helmets?

I just can't figure this team out. One week they play well enough to beat the Rams, then they fall flat on their face.

They are throwbacks, actually, I believe the team originally wore them back in the 60's. They've been wearing them a lot this season. I like the burgundy a lot.

They don't display the Native American picture like the prior ones did, and I kind of assumed that was the reason for the change.
