Josh McDaniels was fired after leading the Las Vegas Raiders to a 3-5 start the previous season. Antonio Pierce took over temporarily as a result, and he guided the squad to a 5–4 victory. Pierce earned the position on a full-time basis thanks to his late-season surge.
However, the Raiders are 2-7 going into Week 10 of the NFL schedule this year, and Coach Pierce’s job is in hot water. We already heard from a number of Raiders who fought for Coach Piece, but it seems like things are shifting in Vegas.

Expectations for the Las Vegas Raiders this season were already low since they were unable to locate a stronger quarterback after moving on from Jimmy Garoppolo. However, regardless of the external opinion, it is difficult to lose five straight games. Anger grows as the losses pile up.
Weeks ago, when they traded Davante Adams to the Jets, Las Vegas began to raise the white flag. Even if it could be the smartest course of action going forward, the Raiders who were unable to leave Vegas are still working hard to win. Maxx Crosby and others expressed their worries at a team meeting as part of their recent attempt to alter the Raiders’ destiny.
During a players-and-staff meeting on Monday, a number of Raiders players, including team captain Maxx Crosby, publicly discussed what they saw to be weekly inefficiencies and shortcomings inside the organization, according to sources who spoke to CBS Sports. The squad gathered with the staff following Monday’s coaches’ meeting, and everyone was free to voice their opinions. A few themes surfaced, based on the available materials. Players complained about the ineffective timetable. In addition to “wasting time” and lacking order, there was also “lack of discipline and accountability.”

The conference concluded “uncomfortably for all parties,” according to one insider.
It’s obvious that everyone associated with the 2024 Raiders is sick of losing on gameday, even if we may not know what was said.
