Colts' Sergio Brown claims that he shut down Rob Gronkowski

Sometimes it's best to know when to cut your losses. Case in point? Indianapolis Colts' safety Sergio Brown.

New England Patriots' tight end Rob Gronkowski had a pretty colorful quote following a matchup with Brown on Sunday: "I threw him out of the club," Gronk said.

Then, Brown fired back on Twitter, sending off a round of tweets that he later deleted:

"Take the attention off the fact that I put straps on that boy!" one of Browns tweets read, which is pretty inaccurate on Brown's part. Gronkowski caught four passes for 71 yards and a touchdown, where he beat five Colts defenders to the end zone in a lopsided 42-20 victory.

Gronkowski also destroyed Brown on a block that led to one of Jonas Gray's four touchdowns:

Better luck next time, Sergio.
