Originally posted on Athlon Sports | By Nick Meyer | Last updated Feb 9, 2025 12:31 PM ET

The Philadelphia Eagles finished the regular season and playoffs with a record of 17-3, a half game off of their opponent Kansas City's 17-2 mark.

The Chiefs were listed as 1.5 point favorites leading up to Sunday's 6:30 p.m. kickoff at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, and offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland's unit is a big reason why.

On Sunday, Eagles Pro Bowl right tackle Lane Johnson sent short but sweet message to fans on X in hopes of firing up his team prior to their long-awaited matchup with coach Andy Reid's back-to-back Super Bowl champions at Super Bowl LIX.

"Let's hunt!!" Johnson said with a face emoji blowing steam out of its nostrils.

The message was viewed over 100,000 times as of just after noon on Sunday as expectations for the big game began to reach a fever pitch.

"Go get it Lane!" one fan said in the comments section.

"It's going to be an amazing day! Time to create a legacy!!! #PavetheLane," another fan added.

The Eagles' last Super Bowl victory came in 2018 as quarterback Nick Foles passed for 373 yards and three touchdowns, besting Tom Brady and New England 41-33 amid Brady's 505 yard, three touchdown game.

Johnson's statement fired up Eagles fans as they began responding on X.

He's one of three Pro Bowl offensive linemen on Philadelphia's roster, which many fans believe could be the difference in a possible win over Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs on Sunday evening.

"Let's finish this! Pave the Lane! Go Birds!" another fan added.

"Let's (expletive) hunt! Go Birds!" another fan said.
