(Ricky: "The Bills are one of this seasons finalists for the NFL Network show Hard Knocks which documents the team's pre-season)
The Buffalo Bills of the NFL came into existence through the AFL in the 30’s. They have worn some really nice and some in my opinion not so nice uniforms. Once important thing to state that the team’s logo and uniform is that teams identity it’s who they are. For some teams they have had several logos, while others have gone through very few. Some have gone through only one through their entire existence only to update, and modernize both the logo and the jersey. When it comes to Bills logo’s which there only has been three of them I have no complaints.
The original look was similar to the NFL's Detroit Lions in which the wors Hawai'ian blue jerseys with silver pants in ode to Ralph Wilson's hometown team. That lasted but one season while the logo featuring "Wild" Bill Hickok with a Heisman pose in front of a herd of buffalo inside a football shaped ellipse. The second one used dubbed the standing Buffalo was an all red logo with a buffalo standing on all fours, on a white helmet. That logo was then replaced by the current logo the charging buffalo which is a blue buffalo as it was shown running with a red stripe coming from the horn of the buffalo. Originally this logo had the white helmet but eventually moved to the red helmet. This was because the bills wanted to be different from there division rivals who for the most part had white helmets. It was until recently the Bills went back to the white helmet with their current jersey design. The current look is probably my favorite that the team worn. They went to a much lighter blue in their home jerseys with white pants. I never liked when they wore the blue pants at home, white pants with the blue jerseys is such a good look in my eyes. The two stripes on both the home blue and away whites on the sleeve. There isn’t too much on these jerseys which really is the reason I like them. I cannot stand the Seahawks jerseys because it has way to much bells and whistles to it, when it comes to sports jerseys less is more.

The least favorite Bills uniforms were the ones that came before the current one. Like I’ve stated I don’t like the blue jersey with the blue pants it just didn’t work with that uniform, sometimes it does but not that time it was way too dark. I didn’t like the light blue trim on the shoulders it just looked out of place and it was just not needed. Same with its white counterpart, it had the red trim and blue shoulders. There was just way too much going on with those jerseys.
