The Broncos scored 51 points in a win against the Cowboys on Sunday. The Jaguars have score 51 total points this season. Those are the facts. Facts that the Jaguars apparently aren’t too fond of.
The Broncos’ Twitter account started tweeting out stats about the team’s prolific offense on Monday morning, including a slight at the team’s upcoming opponent: the Jaguars. One tweet noted the stark contrast on offense between the two teams, including the embarrassing points statistic listed above. That didn’t go over so hot with the Jags, which decided to paraphrase Ron Burgundy in response.
The #Broncos' 51 points in yesterday's win are as many points as the Jaguars have scored all season.

Classy or not, the Broncos are just offering up the facts. Sorry Jaguars. Sometimes the truth hurts.

The Broncos weren’t wrong with their tweet, but they also probably didn’t need to rub salt in the wound of their winless opponent. After all, they are favored by a NFL-record 28 points this weekend.
