‘All-time embarrassment’ – Fans react as CBS Sports plays ‘Outstanding’ over New York Jets montage
The New York Jets suffered yet another humiliating defeat, this time at the hands of the Kansas City Chiefs, but it was CBS that got to throw the most dirt on their name. As many expected, the Jets were comprehensively beaten by the Chiefs, with the final scoreline reading 35-12.
The New York Jets faced a devastating 35-12 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, extending a streak of poor performances under head coach Aaron Glenn's second season. CBS Sports, during their broadcast, added insult to injury by playing Charlie Wilson's song 'Outstanding' during a montage of Glenn and quarterback Geno Smith displaying visible frustration.
The song has recently gained infamy as an anthem for aging players who are no longer at the pinnacle of their careers. Fans expressed their disbelief and humiliation at the network's choice, with one remarking, "It means you're washed up." Other fans criticized Glenn's coaching, suggesting he may be worse than his predecessor, Adam Gase.
Despite the overwhelming criticism, one fan showed empathy, stating, "Go ahead and pick on the little guy while he is down." The Jets now stand at 2-7, with no immediate signs of improvement. However, there is a glimmer of hope as the team could secure three first-round picks in the 2027 NFL Draft, potentially revitalizing their offensive unit and providing a much-needed direction for the future.
