Rarely has a revamp of an old classic into something new and fresh gone well or without backlash.The helmets of these jerseys are similar to the ones still used today.Will the next generation of Redskins fans start watching them on Sundays in a uniform like this?Because they were only used for two seasons, helmets like this one worn by Sonny Jurgenson are hot collector items.With Baugh on the way out, Washington decided that changing the logo and altering the uniforms with a different type of lettering and changed pants would help the Redskins still appear to be a formidable foe.There has also been some question about the Skins changing the overall design of the helmet into more of a blackout style helmet.That same year the Redskins got the rights to bring Sammy Baugh to the club, and the franchise, along with the NFL, would never be the same.A jersey change awaited, and the famous "Spear Helmet" was created.

The Eagles won the game 37-34 in overtime. I am sure there are many Redskins fans that wish to have him back now.That may be unprofessional, but if you want a first impression, this is more of a "I must own that" kind of uniform than previously.There has been talk for a little while now for the Washington Redskins to do just that.In fact, these types of jerseys were worn during the Redskins game against the Tennessee Titans on November 21, 2010.Will the Redskins give in and get away from their old burgundy and gold?The biggest change for these two seasons were the addition of the yellow jersey with white pants and the now famous helmet.But is a change on the horizon?When All-Pro linebacker Sam Huff came to Washington in 1964, the Redskins were going through some terrible times.This is only one possible design.As one of the 70 Greatest Redskins, the 1960 Washington Redskins (1-9-2) and Dick James looked to change their jerseys and hopefully change their luck in the years ahead.Enter the era of Eddie LeBaron and the post-Sammy Baugh Redskins.For a split second in 1982, the Washington Redskins entertained the idea of having the helmets look like this one.
