Raiders Fans Were Calling for Josh McDaniels’ Firing After Ugly Loss to Bears

The Raiders' 30-12 loss on Sunday to a Bears team with undrafted rookie quarterback Tyson Bagent under center ranks as arguably the worst result of the Josh McDaniels era. Not surprisingly, fans went from being frustrated with the head coach to calling for his job following the loss, which moved Las Vegas to 3-4 on the season.

McDaniels opted to start Brian Hoyer at quarterback in place of the injured Jimmy Garoppolo, doing so over rookie Aidan O'Connell, which already had fans frustrated. But the team was outgained 323 to 235 in total yards and the Raiders were unable to find the end zone until there was 1:10 left in the fourth quarter.

The fire McDaniels social media posts began pouring in even before the game ended.

If Josh McDaniels is still our Head Coach next week then obviously our team has “Commitment To Losing”#FireJoshMcDaniels

This is the 24th game of the Josh McDaniels era in Las Vegas. They are no better than what he inherited, and it isn't even close, they are worse.

I think we can all agree on this… #RaiderNation

Josh McDaniels deserves to be fired ASAP.

Coach, last year you lost to a high school football coach. This year, you lost to an undrafted division II quarterback from a college that I didn't know existed.

It's the first Bears home win in over a year and they were 1-5.
