22. Arizona Cardinals 

There is nothing terribly wrong with the Cardinals helmet but there is nothing very interesting about it, either. It’s the 8-8 of NFL helmets.

21. Baltimore Ravens

Kind of like the Cardinals, the Ravens logo is just meh. I feel like it could have been a lot cooler. Baltimore has a great color scheme and team name. This one could use an overhaul.

20. Atlanta Falcons

I guess this is the “bird section” of these rankings. We’re finally getting somewhere with the Falcons helmets. I really dig the splashes of red here and the sleekness of the falcon. Solid helmet.

19. Los Angeles Chargers

These helmets are great. They’re clean and simple and look terrific with the team’s powder blue uniforms, which by the way, are the only uniforms the Chargers should ever wear.

18. Cleveland Browns

Cleveland’s helmets are polarizing. A lot of people hate the color orange in general and don’t like the brown and orange combo. Perhaps I’m biased because I grew up about 45 minutes outside of Cleveland but I have always liked the Browns’ simple orange helmet, especially when paired with their old brown jerseys.

The logoless helmet is totally unique in the NFL so that fact and some nostalgia have the Browns coming in at 18.
