Geno Smith had taken enough hits by the time CBS caught him ripping off his helmet on the New York Jets’ sideline. Aaron Glenn looked about as happy as his quarterback. Then came the music. CBS sent the game to commercial with a slow-motion look at both men set to “Outstanding.”

The Kansas City Chiefs beat the Jets 35-12 on Sunday, handing New York its fourth straight loss. For some of the people still watching, the most entertaining thing the Jets did all afternoon was give CBS something to work with on the way to an ad break.

CBS Gives Geno Smith and Aaron Glenn the ‘Outstanding’ Treatment

The Gap Band’s 1982 track is plenty upbeat on its own. On sports feeds, though, it’s become a running joke, the soundtrack for highlight edits of players well past their best. Put that song over a quarterback who’s had it and a coach watching the game get away from him, and viewers are going to wonder who in the truck has been scrolling the same feed they have.

“The level of detail. This is why they call CBS the Tiffany Network,”one viewer wrote.

“Someone in the CBS production room has a funny sense of humor and is way too online for this to be the song cutting to commercial showing Glenn and Geno’s frustration lmao,”another viewer wrote.

Another viewerput it more simply. “They are chronically online just like us.”

The clip also landed with people who were a little too worn out to appreciate the production work. “I can’t do this anymore,”one fan wrote.

One fan said, “Choosing that version of it is wild work.”

Another added, “It’s no coincidence. That’s for sure.”

Geno Smith Explains His Frustration After the Jets’ Loss

Smith said after the game that he was frustrated by the offense’s inability to get it done and that he’d start by looking at what he could do better.

It was the second time in three weeks that a Jets sideline moment got people talking. The cameras had also caughtGarrett Wilson venting during the loss to Miami. Wilson was inactive against Kansas City.

The Jets moved the ball early on Sunday. They crossed midfield on five first-half possessions and outgained the Chiefs 171-134 before halftime. All they had to show for it were four Jason Sanders field goals.

After the break, New York punted three times and turned it over on downs twice. Kansas City scored three touchdowns in the second half while the Jets stayed stuck at 12.

Smith finished 18-of-32 for 165 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and took five sacks. He has a 78.3 PFN QB Impact Score after Week 9, which ranks 14th in the league.

The number that best explained the afternoon was New York’s 2-for-12 mark on third down. The Jets couldn’t keep drives going, and every trip back to the sideline gave CBS another chance to catch the frustration.

The 2-7 Jets host Buffalo on Sunday, with CBS carrying that one, too. Glenn and Smith could use an early touchdown and a lead to protect. At the very least, that would give the crew a reason to pick a different song.
