A new conspiracy theory is out in the NFL. The Las Vegas Raiders have decided to fire HC Josh McDaniels, GM Dave Ziegler, and OC Mick Lombardi. According to Skip Bayless, the NFL legend Tom Brady has played a crucial role in that happening. This has generated a lot of buzz among the fans, and everyone is wondering how.

Is Tom Brady the reason behind the firings?

According to Skip Bayless, Tom Brady had a direct impact on Mark Davis, the owner of the Raiders. The analyst mentioned that Davis possibly wanted to get Tom Brady’s input on how the team has been doing in the last two seasons. “Do you think Tom Brady had some input into this decision? I’m going to guess some input,” stated Bayless.

“I don’t think Mark Davis would do this going completely solo on it. I think he would bounce it off Tom just to get Tom’s [opinion].” The Raiders had put a lot of expectations on the McDaniels, Ziegler, and Lombardi for the team to perform well, but those standards were not met.

The Raiders would prioritize listening to and valuing Tom Brady’s opinions, given his seven Super Bowl wins and status as the best player in the NFL. And surprisingly, Skip Bayless had predicted this 5 months ago.

Skip Bayless’s prediction

The analyst had predicted that Tom Brady could potentially be a major setback for the Raiders’ Head Coach in the 2023 season. Bayless had stated that Brady’s ownership could give a lot of headaches to Josh McDaniels. He also suggested that Brady would sack the HC entirely if he did not present an outstanding season.

“Is Brady’s ownership stake a good thing for Josh because obviously he had a lot of success with Josh. I’m sure he loves him. But if I know [No. 12] the way I think I do, it if it’s not working on the field, the [minority] owner will say ‘next,” Bayless stated.

Now, Bayless’s prediction has come true, and the Raiders owner has fired not just McDaniels but also the GM and the Offensive Coordinator. What do you think about it?
