Twitter wars are always interesting viewing. Especially when they involve official NFL team accounts.
The Denver Broncos won again Sunday and touted their 51-point outbreak (though failed to mention the 48 they allowed) with a tweet that any journalist or fan could have pointed out, and might have.
The #Broncos' 51 points in yesterday's win are as many points as the Jaguars have scored all season.A few notes here ... The 5-0 Broncos played the Dallas Cowboys Sunday. The 0-5 Jacksonville Jaguars played the St. Louis Rams the same day. One thing had nothing to do with another.

However, the Fighting Gus Bradleys are traveling to Denver in Week 6 for what is one of the highest lines Vegas ever has witnessed in recent times. Nothing like kicking the cats' cage a little. The Jaguars' Twittermeister hissed back.
Stay classy, Denver. RT @DenverBroncos: The #Broncos' 51 points in yesterday's win are as many points as the Jaguars have scored all season.To which the Broncos retorted with a Lebowski-esque "calmer than you are" approach.

No shots, just stats. RT @jaguars: Stay classy, Denver. MT @DenverBroncos: #Broncos' 51 pts Sun. are as many as JAX has scored all season. — Denver Broncos (@DenverBroncos) October 7, 2013This won't have a single impact on Sunday's game, but it's interesting to watch unfold. So far, neither account has deleted their tweets. Maybe they realize that this battle could be far more competitive than Sunday's contest will be. In that case, we thank you.
