Fired Patriots Ex Coach Josh McDaniels 'Broke' After 'Vicious' Raiders Team Meeting
In New England, there are still echoes of what Josh McDaniels has accomplished as a coach.
The problems apparently continued throughout that day, NFL Network adding,"Then at practice a couple of hours later, he was described as 'not himself.' He was distant, he let plays happen instead of correcting. Players felt he was there in body but not in spirit ... It broke him."McDaniels finishes his time with the Raiders with a 9-16 record in less than two full seasons.
When Patriots quarterback Jones entered the NFL as a rookie in 2021, his offensive coordinator working under head coach Bill Belichick was McDaniels; obviously, something worked - so much so that there is now natural speculation that the coach might eventually resurface as an assistant in New England.
But when he shows up here or anywhere with his resume, it can be assumed that Raiders players won't be listed as references.From star receiver Davante Adams: “It was time, obviously, one way or the other for some type of change. Just to bring a little juice in and revitalize the team a little bit. ... There is a definitive shift now where we can say things are different and we have an opportunity to change it.
From star defensive end Maxx Crosby:"It’s already hard enough to go out there and do what we do, so if you’re walking into the building not enjoying it, it’s going to be even harder.”Copyright ABG-SI LLC. SPORTS ILLUSTRATED is a registered trademark of ABG-SI LLC. All Rights Reserved.
