Dallas Cowboys fans are not happy with one of their players on the team.
Cowboys standout linebacker Micah Parsons praised Eagles’ Lane Johnson on Twitter but seemingly took it a little too far when he told him to go out in the Super Bowl and win it all for the NFC East division.
“Love you big bro! Keep going! Not many like you! Definitely not playing like you healthy or with a torn groin! Go win a bowl for our division!”
This is a big problem because there is no fan base in the NFL that has ever celebrated when a team from their division wins a Super Bowl. This is not college where fans of the SEC will boast about the conference after Alabama won so many National Titles.

As you can see, nobody in the NFC East likes what Parsons is saying here. You do not root for a rival to win it all.
On Sunday, as the Eagles pounded the San Francisco 49ers, 31-8, in the NFC Championship Game to earn a trip to Super Bowl LVII to meet the Kansas City Chiefs. Johnson hasn’t given up a sack in two seasons, and he kept his streak going against the 49ers. After Sunday, Johnson hasn’t allowed a sack in nine postseason games.
Johnson, who was named to the NFLPA and AP first-team All-Pro teams, will need to be just as good in two weeks if the Eagles want to defeat the Chiefs.
