The Raiders MUST Fix This BIGGER Issue Before Week 3

What happened to the Raiders? Two weeks into the season, the team sits at 1–1, but the cracks are already beginning to show as they prepare for a pivotal Week Three clash against the Washington Commanders. Monday night’s loss to the Chargers wasn’t just another defeat—it was a spotlight on everything that’s holding this team back. The defense fought hard, limiting Los Angeles to just 20 points despite being put in impossible situations. But the offense? It sputtered, stumbled, and collapsed under pressure, leaving fans and analysts with more questions than answers.
Yet strangely, the biggest headline from the night wasn’t about missed assignments or turnovers. Instead, it was Tom Brady, perched in the coaching booth with a headset on, sparking a storm of speculation across the NFL world. Cameras caught him alongside the staff, and suddenly the story shifted. Was Brady secretly helping with game planning? Was he providing Chip Kelly and the Raiders coaching staff with tips? ESPN fanned the flames, reporting that Brady meets with Kelly two or three times a week to break down film and game plans. The controversy exploded, because Brady isn’t just any NFL figure—he’s both a minority owner of the Raiders and the newest $375 million star analyst for Fox.
That combination created a conflict of perception. As a broadcaster, Brady can access teams around the league, sit in production meetings, and pick apart film with coaches. As a minority owner, he can sit in the booth with his own team during games. It’s all technically legal, but does it give the Raiders an advantage? Some say yes. Others dismiss it as overblown noise.
Raiders head coach Pete Carroll quickly shut down the whispers, insisting Brady hasn’t broken any rules and follows the NFL’s strict guidelines for minority owners. The league itself backed him up, releasing a statement that while Brady can’t attend practices or private production meetings, he’s permitted to sit in the booth as long as he uses league-issued equipment. Even Adam Schefter weighed in, saying the outrage was misplaced and that Brady knows where the professional line is.
But others, like Chris Canty, pushed back. Legal or not, Brady’s presence changes things. His football IQ, his constant conversations with coaches, and his proximity to decision-makers give the Raiders a resource no other team enjoys. Whether he’s actively influencing plays or just observing, the perception of favoritism lingers.
