    There was.

    Titans own the Oiler rights, as Got said, Bud made sure of that. The drop-off was intentional, it was meant to put more focus on the Nashville brand.

    Just did my study and now fully understand it.

    Not sure why I've always thought Houston owned the Oilers name and gear..

    If that's the case, we sure as hell should be wearing the Oilers gear, since those uniforms and helmets are the best ever.

    Let Houston have the color red, it fits into their brand

    Red is just an accent color to the Titans/Oilers

    I watch football for football, not a fashion show. I don't care what color the jerseys are or what numbers are on them.

    That being said, I think the rule of 1 helmet is pretty dumb. The NFL hasn't billions of dollars... Buy every player a couple of helmets. Could restrict it to being the same brand/style/size or whatever as their every day helmet and then what's the damn difference?

    I still say the reason this rule was made was to save the Philadelphia Eagles the possibility of any further embarrassment for wearing this combination:

    More variants mean more sales because you have more items. You would think “business men” would understand that.

    The one shell rule stopped us from wearing throwback
    Our current helmet doesn’t match the throwback
