IMO! Don't need to look like the Lions!
I love these CL and I bet every penny I have that almost every single fan on this board would chosen these over the current design if they were given a choice before the rebrand.
I also would bet that these would be just as good at winning over the "kiddies" in Los Angeles.
But as we all know, Demoff thought he knew better than the majority of long time Rams fans. He calls himself a Rams fan but I do not buy it. If he was really a Rams fan he would never have neutered and broken the helmet horn.
Ruining that ICONIC helmet horn design is something that will be blamed on Demoff and he never will be able to escape it unless he rights the wrong that he did. It will forever be tied to his legacy. He is the man who "neutered the horn and sh#t on Rams tradition.
Demoff made a mistake. It's ok for him to acknowledge it and "correct" it but I doubt he ever will. If he simply would have allowed a fan vote on different designs, maybe he would've seen the light and this whole blasphemy could have been avoided.
Demoff has a chance to "fix history" and his legacy but he won't. IMO, he still thinks he made the right choices and that is 100% why we will never see these as the next alternate uni.
These would quickly become the fan favorites over the other abominations they are currently wearing. Demoff is not stupid, he just has a very bad sense of taste when it comes to uni designs and lacks a knowledge of how iconic our helmet design was to the fans and the NFL in general and is known to be a flat out liar, but he's not dumb. He knows this would only magnify his error on the rebrand.
IMO, Demoff's successor will eventually bring back the full helmet horn and instantly become a fan favorite and hero for doing so. Until then, we have to just put up with dealing with the disrespect of our ICONIC helmet design and the significance of the horn.
When is Demoff's contract up?!?!?!
Anyway, this design is awesome CL! If only Demoff was smart enough to consult YOU on the new uni designs, he could've been a hero and saved a TON of $$$!

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
