Patriots fans react to Raiders firing Josh McDaniels as head coach

The NFL world is waking up to the shocking news that the Las Vegas Raiders have fired both coach Josh McDaniels and general manager Dave Ziegler late Tuesday night.

It was a short-lived run for McDaniels in his second head coaching tenure. Just like his run with the Denver Broncos, he failed to make it a full two seasons with a team.

The Raiders were coming off back-to-back losses to the Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions and likely on the verge of another disappointing season with a 3-5 record. They finished third in the AFC West division last season with a pitiful 6-11 record.

McDaniels clearly has deep ties within the Patriots organization, and there will immediately be thoughts of him potentially returning in some capacity to either coach or serve as a senior offensive adviser in New England.

We’ve pulled together some of the best reactions regarding the Patriots and McDaniels from social media.
