Tom Brady Game Used Helmet.....
I am not stating this helmet is bad. Helmets are not my area of expertise and I do not collect them. However, I am looking forward to the helmet experts on here giving their opinions on this lid. It is from one of the greatest QB's ever...from a team that does not release game used equipment into the marketplace....with ZERO team nor NFL paperwork. Oh, and nevermind the Lampson LOA. I await with great curiosity........

Re: Tom Brady Game Used Helmet.....
I can find tons of pics that absolutely do not match this helmet. (Mostly the logo is placed differently.) Can't find one that does. Doesn't mean it's not real, but you'd think at least a possible matching pic would pop up.

Re: Tom Brady Game Used Helmet.....
This is a great helmet, except:
The chinstrap isn't the brand Tom wore in 2001, he wore an Adams low and high hookup
I'm pretty sure Tom wears an XL shell, not L...but some of the Pats experts could verify that for me
The rear flag decal on the back isn't the same on Tom's helmet from 2001
The rear bumper size and font from his 2001 helmet don't match
The velcro coins near the ear holes inside of the helmet that hold the speakers look smaller than what I have seen on other NFL helmets
I'd also be interested to see if the crown of the helmet had the velcro strips for the battery pack, and receiver
These are just initial concerns...I'm sure others will have more

All the info that I have says that Tom does where an XL Shell.
It's a fake! The chinstrap is off!
I'm hoping that this comment is a Joke....Jon Hunt is one of the most knowledgeable Helmet guys on this forum......

Funny that the current helmet has the same rear bumper font as this one from a few years ago.

Re: Tom Brady Game Used Helmet.....
Thanks for posting that link...I hadn't even thought to look back at any discusssions about this helmet, since I had never seen it auctioned before. Good to see I'm not losing it, and some of the same inconsistencies are mentioned by some of the expert helmet guys on this forum...Wrong sized helmet, wrong font on the rear bumber decal, etc...
