With Taylor Gabriel having a monster day for the Atlanta Falcons, the team’s official Twitter went savage on the Cleveland Browns over their former player.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Taylor Gabriel had the game of his life against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 12. He absolutely burned the Arizona secondary twice on the same play call on the day for long touchdowns that highlighted his elite speed. The Cleveland Browns cast-off was showing out in a big way. And as a cast-off of the Browns, the Falcons couldn’t help but unleash a savage troll job on Twitter.

Following the second touchdown from Gabriel, Atlanta went up 31-13 over the Cardinals and we’re obviously feeling themselves a bit—and rightfully so. However, that doesn’t mean they had to call out the Browns how they did.

Yet, here is what the Atlanta Falcons official Twitter account had to say simply and brutally:

Had they just said “Thanks!” and tagged the Browns, most people would’ve understood what they meant. However, the inclusion of the excerpt from Wikipedia is just a new level of savagery. They went all out to rub it in the faces of the winless Browns.

In fairness, though, it’s kind of hard not to feel like maybe the Browns deserve to be trolled a bit over letting Gabriel go. Though receiver is arguably the best position group on their roster, it’s absurd to let a player with obvious speed and talent like Gabriel go for nothing early in the season. That’s how you end up 0-11 going into Week 12 and facing a winless season.
