WHAT'S WITH THE HELMET, CHAD?: In one of the more light-hearted moments of second-year quarterback Chad Henne's weekly press conference, the former Michigan standout was asked why his helmet seems so tight on his head, and specifically up front where the pad on his forehead looks like it's pushing his eyebrows down.

"My fiancée said the same thing," Henne said. "She said, ‘Every time you put the helmet on you see so much anger and you're eyebrows are down.' But hey, when I got that lick on Sunday and the helmet stayed on, that definitely protects you. So a tighter helmet is definitely better for a quarterback rather than having it pop off and getting hit in the head. I've seen how it looks and it's weird, but hopefully I can throw some linebackers off sometimes. It's just a regular helmet, I don't know. Maybe it's a new revolution I guess from when I started wearing it in high school."

I thought it looked a bit funny over his eyes.

yeah i want "pissed off chad henne" not "come here and be my friend chad henne".

[GISH]

I like it. He always looks pissed. I don't want a QB who looks like he doesn't care (Tony Romo).

[TiP54]

I think that every time i see him.
Why the **** that man is mad all the time?
Chill out.
lol

i want a QB who plays great, i don't care how his face looks in a helmet.

I just laughed really loud at work...thanks...everybody is looking!

[Phinvader Bill]

The ladies seem to hate it. There's this one chick I know who is in love with CP, and she said something along the lines of 'I hope Pennington comes back because Henne just looks ugly with that thing sticking out of his helmet." I told her to become a Cowboys fan if she didnt like it, because Pennington aint coming back!" lol

Looks like a Transformer's Helmet.

I agree, Pat White's looks more ridiculous. He's got like the biggest helmet out there with the smallest shoulder pads.

I was going to start a thread about this.

His helmet is TOOOOO tight.

it is hurting his vision.

it is bunching up his forehead skin. Look at his forehead after games..it is red and almost bleeding.

Peyton Manning uses a revolution helmet as well...and he doesn;t have it like that.

Get a comfortable helmet Chad.

[Miguel]

Look at Pat WHites tatoo

sick Huh

[Section126]

BTW..are we the only team in NFL History with two quarterbacks with Tats?

[YBFM]

Yeah, who hasn't noticed the "roll".....I thought he was hiding a hotdog in his helmet for a game-time snack.....

[Frumundah Finnatic]

He says its not uncomfortable, I have no idea how the hell his helmet can possibly be comfortable.

It really makes him look smaller than he already is.

I'm glad we have a smart quarterback. A helmet cannot do it's job if it's too loose.

[texasPHINSfan]

i call him "Cro-magnon Henne" with that brow pushed down.

[the 23rd]

as long as it doesn't hurt his game, doesn't matter
