The historical NFL helmets illustrated on the various pages for each division are based very heavily on information derived from one particular web site, Mike Stanhope's NFL Helmet page. The dates of use for each helmet and the accompanying comments are also derived primarily from this source, which appears to have been very carefully researched and which we believe to be highly accurate. NFL team helmets that have changed names or have been relocated will be found in the section for the franchise's current name, with the exception of the Cleveland Browns.
In 1994, as part of the NFL's celebration of its 75th anniversary, most teams wore for at least a few games uniforms and helmets designed to resemble those from some earlier year in the team's history. While some teams wore the "throwback" uniforms for only a few games, others used them for most of the season; we also have information about for which specific games the special helmets were used. The helmet illustrations for these 1994 helmets are labeled as "1994 special" on the various pages. An interesting web site about these 1994 helmets can be found here.
The links you will find on our site will present the lists of NFL Super Bowl, Conference, and Divisional champions in "Helmet Project" format. The Super Bowl and Conference champions are listed since the first Super Bowl game; the Divisional champions are listed back to 1970, the first year of the NFL's six-division format and of the AFL-NFL merger. The years listed refer to the football season in question, rather than the dates when the championship game was played (for example, "2006" is listed for the Pittsburgh Steelers' recent Super Bowl victory).
After careful consideration, we elected to display the current helmet for each team on these pages, rather than the one used by the team during the year listed, to more clearly illustrate the ebb and flow of power among the teams through the years. The use of multiple helmets for each team in such a display would interfere with the eye's ability to grasp the underlying patterns, such as the prolonged dominance of a small number of teams in the 1970s, and the emergence of great parity since about 1990.
