VATICAN CITY - Social Media is blowing up from NFL fans after a tweet was posted by Pope Francis.

Five new Saints were said to be canonized in the Vatican City, and the Pope took to twitter to recognize them, unintentionally tagging the New Orleans Saints using the hashtag "the Saints". 

Today we give thanks to the Lord for our new #Saints. They walked by faith and now we invoke their intercession.

The tweet generated a bunch of hilarious responses from NFL and Saints fans alike.

What do You think about the Eagles?
