An interesting note, the flag on the right side of the red helmet with motion lines goes in the opposite direction. You can see it around the 1:04 mark of this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvDW4xOzRYI&t=106s
You can also see it on this mini helmet. https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/dallas-texans-nfl-arena-football-full-1927066319
The white helmet does not have the reverse flag and I am still checking to see if the 1993 helmet does or does not.

The 1991 helmet with motion lines does not have the helmet stripes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvDW4xOzRYI&t=106s
Also, you have the "see not 1 below" under the 1991 helmet. It should be under the white 1990 helmet.

The motion stripes were removed for the 1992 season as seen in these newspaper photos from 1992. Also you can see the flag on the right side logo is reversed so it flows towards that back of the helmet on both sides

The last photo from 1993 shows the right side flag is still reversed,

The 1990 white helmet was the only year the right side flag was not reversed.

Here is an image of the reverse flag logo.
