The decision to fire the coach and GM came one day after the Raiders lost 26-14 on “Monday Night Football.”
The team has faced the most embarrassing defeats in franchise history under the McDaniels-Ziegler duo.
The biggest collapse in the history of the franchise was blowing a 20-0 halftime lead against Arizona.
As of now, the Raiders have No. 31-ranked total offense in yards per game, No. 32 in rushing yards per game and rank No. 30 in points scored per game (15.8).
