Divisional matchups across the NFL brought out petty posts on social media.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers dominated the New Orleans Saints. The Indianapolis Colts narrowly beat the Tennessee Titans. And on Thursday, the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Seattle Seahawks on the road.
Here are the top trolls for Week 6.
The Buccaneers left no room for doubt in their win over the Saints.
Tampa Bay outscored New Orleans 27-0 in the second half and compiled 594 total yards of offense. Baker Mayfield threw for 325 yards plus four touchdowns and three interceptions — the Buccaneers are the third team since 2000 to score 50 points despite throwing three interceptions, per ESPN Research.
Tampa Bay had a simple troll aimed at its division rivals, referencing a lyric from Atlanta rapper Bankroll Fresh to show Buccaneers fans taking over the Caesars Superdome. They also posted a video of Mayfield shushing the home crowd.

With Joe Flacco back under center, the Colts got their third win in four games and first in divisional action.
The Titans had a chance to win the game, receiving the ball with 22 seconds left. But their lateral attempt came up short. Flacco threw for 189 yards and two touchdowns, while Will Levis had just 95 passing yards with a touchdown, and they had one interception apiece.
Indianapolis opted for a “Music City” theme to its troll at Tennessee.

The Houston Texans spoiled Drake Maye‘s first career start, jumping out to a 14-0 lead and never looking back.
The New England Patriots quarterback threw for 243 yards and three touchdowns but also had two interceptions and a lost fumble in his debut. C.J. Stroud had 192 passing yards plus three touchdowns.
Houston trolled New England multiple times, including a twist on a famous scene from “Good Will Hunting,” which takes place in Boston. The Texans also captioned their post with former Patriots coach Bill Belichick’s “do your job” phrase.

Sunday matchup or not, the 49ers still made sure to poke fun at the Seahawks after their win.
San Francisco put together 483 total yards of offense and forced three turnovers in a complete game. The result puts both teams at 3-3 and tied for first in the NFC West.
The 49ers poked fun at the Seahawks’ home, “Lumen Field,” in their postgame troll.
