If you followed the USFL in 1984, a subtle change took place during the middle of the season. The Pittsburgh Maulers had to change their helmet logo/decal supposedly due to the fact that the orange/purple “Mauler” logo was difficult to see on TV. At some point in the season the old logo was replaced with a logo that had a white outline around the “Mauler” on the decal.
If anyone from the Maulers or USFL offices ever finds this post then please leave a comment on the specifics of when/why the exact change was made. Thanks in advance!
