Broncos Troll Tom Brady Following Sunday Night Football Win

By Ryan Mayer, CBS Local Sports

The Broncos handed the Patriots their first loss of the season last night after CJ Anderson romped 48 yards in overtime to win the game 30-24.  Patriots QB Tom Brady had himself a fine game, throwing for 280 yards and 3 TD's, but in the end it wasn't enough to get New England the win.  Unfortunately for Brady, he (or whoever runs his Facebook account) had posted a photo shopped image to his page of himself riding a Bronco prior to the game.

That would seem to imply that Brady was expecting to "tame" the Broncos and pick up a victory.  Seeing as that didn't happen, the Broncos responded with a more appropriate photo shop on their official Facebook account.

The team's Facebook account wasn't the only one to be reveling in Denver's victory.  Former Broncos tight end and NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe took to Twitter to express his enjoyment in the victory.

Sharpe proceeded to get into the fun by retweeting his favorite photo shop of the night.

The groundwork has been laid for plenty of fun to be had if these two teams meet in the playoffs come January. The Broncos head to San Diego for an AFC West match-up with the Chargers on Sunday.
