Raiders owner Mark Davis did not hold back against a group of angry fans calling for him to fire coach Josh McDaniels after the franchise’s 24–17 loss on Sunday to the Chargers.
On Sunday, Chargers linebacker Khalil Mack registered a franchise single-game record with six sacks on Raiders rookie quarterback Aidan O’Connell, who stepped in with Jimmy Garoppolo out with a concussion. Los Angeles, which led 17–0 at halftime, made key plays in the final minutes of the game to hold on and secure its second win of the season.
As a result, fans were not happy. In a video posted on TikTok, Davis was overheard yelling at the pack of angry fans to “smarten up” while at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Prior to Sunday’s loss, fans became disgruntled with McDaniels after the Raiders’ loss to the Steelers in Week 3 because he elected for Las Vegas to kick a field goal while trailing Pittsburgh 23–15 with 2:25 to play in regulation.
