Well, it's not the one shown in all the 2004 photos. Note the position of the upper chin strap mount. And it seems odd there's an unused lower snap behind the bar of the facemask.

Also, it looks like the strap on his helmet is rounded off where the one for sale is square cut?

Also the screws in the upper chin strap are not the type used... the screws attaching this chinstrap are generic Schutt screws. And there is no team colored "Riddell" stamping on the lower portion of the Adams chinstrap. If you look at this guys helmets for sale, 99% of them are fakes.

The Urlacher helmet on Ebay also seems way too pristine and clean. Usually an active, every-down playing, hard-hitting linebacker like Urlacher would incur a good amount of helmet-to-helmet gashes, scratches and dings on the front fore-head and on the sides of a game worn helmet. The Urlacher helmet on Ebay appears to be too clean, new, smooth and shiny.

Just looked at the auction photos more closely, and I guess the Urlacher helmet on Ebay has more scuffs on it than I realized. So perhaps it is a real game used Bears helmet, but hard to tell if it is actually Urlacher's helmet.

Clear edges on the side decals. In the words of our friend Robert..."bunk".
