I wouldn't talk about the Steelers in the B1G Hoops Thread.

Somebody here might.

I keep meaning to ask, what's with the comically large helmets I see on NFL guys?  

I think the first time I noticed it was on the Packer's Romeo Doubs, but I've seen 1 or 2 guys on most teams wearing it.  They look like big-headed aliens.  

It appears to be soft, like some sort of padding, presumably to offer extra protection, I guess?  Never heard any explanation for it.....I just started seeing it.

That's exactly it. It's a padded shell on top of the standard helmet. Supposed to offer more protection from head injuries.

Oh it's still coming.  Our society has too many damn lawyers for it not to happen.
