When it comes to elite trash-talkers in the NFL, Las Vegas Raiders star edge rusher Maxx Crosby is one of the best in the business, something he showed during the Week 5 game against the Denver Broncos.
While Broncos quarterback Bo Nix was calling things out at the line of scrimmage before one play during the game, Crosby could be heard yelling at the rookie signal-caller to speak louder so his offensive line could hear him.
Thankfully, we could clearly hear what Crosby was saying, and it made for a hilarious moment (warning: video contains NSFW language).
"Bo, I need more f------ base in your voice," Crosby yelled. "Bo, speak up! They don't f------ know!"

As football fans were in tears over Crosby's epic troll job, it was the Broncos who got the last laugh. After falling behind 10-0, Denver scored 34 unanswered points to ultimately grab a blowout 34-18 win. The victory also snapped the Raiders' eight-game winning streak over the Broncos.
Nix played a heck of a game, also, completing 19-of-27 passes for 206 yards and two touchdowns to no interceptions. He also added one rushing score. Meanwhile, the Raiders saw a putrid performance from Gardner Minshew, which led to him getting benched.
As for Crosby, who was questionable heading into the game before suiting up, he finished with three tackles, two sacks, two tackles for loss and two QB hits in the losing effort. It looks like his ankle is doing just fine.
The Raiders will look to get back on the winning track in a Week 6 matchup versus the Pittsburgh Steelers, while the Broncos will look to push their winning streak to four games in a divisional game against the Los Angeles Chargers at home.
