While we've already seen mock ups of these with the white jerseys, I can't wait to see them actually on the field.
This could end up being the best uniform in the league.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Zac Taylor 2023: 9 wins despite losing Burrow half the season
Zac Taylor 2024: Started 1-4. If he can turn this into a playoff appearance, it will be impressive.

I know I'm biased and I know someone at the old school orange helmet but I think these helmets are the best in the league. Very clean

How will teams be able to differentiate between the players and the refs now?!

Can you imagine a Steeler player going to lay a dirty hit on a Bengal but then finding out, after the fact, he laid out a ref?

I assumed the jerseys would also be white because it would look dumb with black or orange jerseys and white helmets.
I guess I'm in the minority but I'm not a big fan. The orange and black IS the Bengals and has more of the jungle feel.
The white seems too soft to me.
I'm a fan of white alt helmets, but I agree with you that orange and black should always be our primary and what we're known for. That said, the orange on our jerseys is very subtle and won't look bad at all, imo.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

I love it. I really like the black with orange stripes, too but these are more original.
I know the Saints, Panthers, Jets, Eagles and Washington are all going with black alt helmets. Cowboys and Giants alts are throw backs and Texans are red. I believe Atlanta’s red is throwback, too so the Bengals are the most original alt helmet.

No doubt, what is awesome is when they first brought out the white color rush uni's years ago, like half a decade ago a
few of us on here were calling for the white and black helmets to match. Just really cool seeing them actually doing it.
Can't wait to see these on gamedays, gonna be an experience. I became a Bengals fan cause of the striped helmets.
It is why I like the Memphis Tigers football team in college too, but when they don't wear the striped helmets I am like...
WTF? It is the most original design of anything in sports IMO.
Must add, don't ever do the white and black helmets with orange jerseys. That is going WAY too far.

To me it is, that is why I wanted the white and black helmets with our white and black uni's in the first place.
A tiger in the jungle doesn't have a white head and an orange body same the other way around.
Keep the orange with the orange, white with the white same as it is in nature.

Those orange Bears helmets are terrible. And they are going all orange but it is not a good look. They should probably just stick with what they have.

It appears we've been duped. Here's a picture of Zac Carter wearing the new helmet. It looks nothing like the previews:

They look like the Browns helmet with our Cincinnati Reds “c” logo. And with coupled with the all-orange uniforms they totally look like the Browns. Even the Browns trolled them about the shade of orange they chose

Someone needs to update the image at the top of the page so we have one orange helmet and one white helmet.
