The Buccaneers? Are you kidding me? Those were god awful. I much prefer the Chargers dark blue helmet to the throwback white. One of the best logo and color schemes in pro sports...and I hate the Chargers.
I think Kansas City's helmet is awesome.
If you HAVE to include a USFL helmet as the author suggests you certainly don't use the Stars. PUKE. I would've chosen New Jersey, Tampa or Birmingham ahead of them...and that's only out of the group he claimed to have considered! I'd also choose these ahead of the Stars...

As for the CFL, definitely like Calgary and Winnipeg better than Edmonton.
I'm not a big fan of the Bengals helmet, but geez it's such an improvement over what they used to wear I guess I can sympathize with its inclusion!
