Very cool that these kids got this stuff and they do look sharp as a team but I don't see these as any indication of the actual Rams correcting what they've had wrong.

horns are wider, not an optical illusion caused by the size of youth helmets, shoulder stripes appear to be the old-school varsity stripe style as opposed to a shoulder stripe that forms a horn, if the rams new jerseys have shoulder stripes, i would prefer these vs a horn style, the horn style simply doesn't work on today's tailored jerseys, imo.

ImageIke, Torry and Marshall all wore tucked and taped sleeves and it looked pretty good.

that was a long time ago - do you think today's sleeve sizes look like that?

What does one have to do with the other?
You don't think they scale the horn to the size of the helmet?

ImageUnder the arm is tighter but that doesn't really impact the horns going up the side of the jersey. Seems like there is plenty of room to do the horns right to me.

I really don't know. It wouldn't surprise me at all if they had one size of Rams horns decals and just fit them onto whatever helmet was using them.

That's not how I would do it or the way that makes sense to me but in this cost cutting, corner cutting world I wouldn't be surprised if they just made due with the ones that they use on the full sized helmets. Is there much of a difference in the actual area of the helmets between kids sizes and adults?

Well, if the horn sticker was the same size for adult and kids size, and if that made the horns look wider, I would imagine then the horn wouldn't fit the side of the helmet either
