Sunday’s game between the Jets and Cowboys didn’t produce many highlights.

New York entered the game winless and looking to give its home crowd something to cheer for against a Dallas team that had also been underperforming. Instead, the Cowboys were running away with a 23–3 by halftime.

But despite the rough outcome, there was one joyous moment the game produced with a little help from the skycam. With the Jets threatening to score in the first half, Justin Fields fired a pass that bounced off the helmet of a defender and deflected straight into the skycam, producing a delightful bit of footage for fans at home.

Someone get James Cameron on the phone. We’re doing NFL football in 4DX Imax now.
