Atlanta Falcons linebacker Sean Weatherspoon is confident his team is going to beat the New Orleans Saints on Sunday to remain in the hunt for the NFC South division crown. Weatherspoon has not played this season after he suffered a torn Achilles over the summer, but he’s still willing to take on trash-talking Saints fans on Twitter.
On Thursday, Weatherspoon warned New Orleans fans that the Falcons are planning to bring their brooms to the Superdome.
The Aints are way too sorry to have our names in their mouth! Our team will be bringing a broom to the bayou!

Weatherspoon also made a weird comment about the Falcons not letting him talk to the media.
They won't let me talk to the media but they don't know my Twitter password! Been apart of this division for 5 yrs, won the division twice!

That last tweet was for you Aints fans that act like they have just kicked our ass since 2010! GOMD!

I’m not really sure why a player who is on IR would be so anxious to talk to the media, but I digress. Weatherspoon’s smack-talk war with “Aints” fans probably represents a perfect example of why the team would rather have him keep to himself, although we have seen much better trash talking on Twitter than that.
The Falcons beat the Saints in a thrilling 37-34 overtime game in Week 1. With Julio Jones looking like a game-time decision, things could be a bit more difficult this time around.
