Some podcast I listen to (maybe PMT?) was just questioning why every defensive player doesn’t wear big ass Guardian Caps for exactly that reason

It's a good point, seeing that last sequence I'd want my whole D line looking like Dark Helmet

I was thinking the Great Gazoo, but yours works better.

Would also make it harder to see past the front line

Technology has offered us a way to make every single linebacker and D-Lineman at least one inch taller and 99% of them have said “no thanks, it doesn’t look cool”. Is this football’s granny shot free throw?

Apparently the extra weight changes your balance slightly. Nothing major but you’re so used to your own head that it throws people off.

Given how much helmets weigh and have weighed in the past, idk about that

Those were closer to the head for what it’s worth. Apparently it’s the size and weight together. When you’re running around I can see someone saying it might throw off their balance. I’m not out there running around in them though just what I’ve seen players say.
