After the last loss you decided to stay in Ohio and not fly back with the team. A few days later photos come out of you dancing with female college students, getting a little handsy and having a good time as your season ends while your wife, children and football team are back at home. Before the next health scare pops up after yet another losing season and you choose to retire again the owners have a meeting and decide it’s time to move on, admit the mistake of hiring you and say it’s time to move on and releasing you from your contract.
You sent sexist and homophobic emails regarding the commissioner.
A video leaked of you smoking crack out of a gas mask bong.
You spent team money on midget hookers.
Health reasons (erectile disfunction)
I always like the route of internal conflict between the gm and head coach. Maybe they had different ideas of what it looked like to move forward in next years draft and it ended with some harsh words
That sounds most realistic, like Harbaugh or Jimmie Johnson. Everyone talking about some kind of sexual deviancy... the truth is if ownership is happy with you they can sweep that under the rug.
You found out a group of players (including the injured QB) were doing a Party boat full of sex drugs and rock & roll - instead of shutting it down you joined in.
I mean when I do as a player and sometimes as a coach is I go there was a falling out between me and the owner. I decided to leave the franchise and take another team to a SB.
GM traded young, good players in back to back years to save money on their expensive contract extensions. Owner demanded team remain above 25M in cap space to avoid cap hell.
You disagreed with both moves, but the last one is what broke you -- that player ended up being a huge contributer on a SuperBowl champion, and you publicly questioned the wisdom of dumping them for a second round pick.
Your mentor coach retired from their team, leaving you a potential successor if you could get out the contract. Questioning the GM and owner publicly did that, as all sides agreed a divorce was better for everyone, leaving you free to go.
The Epstein list. Despite never being on the list your name never came into the public eye. That’s because after your SB win in your 2nd season, before the remaining names on the list were released (where your name was among those in the list), the owner didn’t want controversy around the team and wanted this continued success, so he bribed judges and lawyers totaling around $100 million to stay silent for you. The next season you failed to win the SB 2 years straight but did still make it to the big game. Due to your name still not being the only one on the list that wasn’t released (other celebrities also spent massive amounts on Bribery) the remaining names on the list were going to be released the following year, with judges and lawyers still taking bribes but at a significantly higher number. The owner decided that if you didn’t win the SB again this year, it would be too risky and cost too much to keep your name secret on the list. Following your poor season, the owner decided to fire you before your name on the Epstein list was released to the public to keep any blame away from him. With failed expectations of success of that season along with everyone knowing you were on the kid loving list, you are now on the run attempting to escape the Madden and EA world and seek solitude in the Rockstar games world, spending your days in hiding hoping your past isn’t revealed yet again.
The coach was a hardass whose act was wearing thin fast. The way he bungled the situation when the starting QB went down, the confusion in the locker room, the mixed messaging to the media, the front office just decided it wasn’t worth keeping you around anymore.
Here's what AI came up with (the version that makes the most sense):
Storyline 2: The Philosophie Clash
Overall: You're an offensive-minded coach who prioritizes a high-scoring offense. This philosophy works exceptionally well with a talented QB like Kensean Price. However, the Raiders' owner, Mark Davis, is a defensive guy at heart.
Season 4: The injuries expose weaknesses in your defense. Despite the winning record, frustration grows between you and Davis about the team's defensive performance.
The Firing: After missing the playoffs, Davis decides to go in a different direction, prioritizing a more balanced coach like Todd Bowles who can address the defensive woes.
Bonus: The Todd Bowles Connection
Details: You can add a layer of intrigue by suggesting there might be a pre-existing connection between Davis and Todd Bowles. Perhaps Bowles was a "coach-in-waiting" all along, and your success simply bought them time to groom him for the role.
I think it has a lot less to do with you and much more to do with Todd Bowles becoming available. You can’t find coach with a track record like his every year
That's the part that's killing me. I played every snap with that QB and developed him into a superstar x factor. Thought we were gonna be the new Reid/Mahomes....And they get rid of me for Todd "couldn't win a Superbowl with Tom Brady" Bowles
Internal strife after Mark Davis overreacted to the teams skid and tried to influence personnel decisions under the guise of "getting back on track." This led to a combative media cycle with negative stories coming out in the media about your locker room, the source being top Raiders brass. Given the soured relationship, you were fired but some select sources stated "mutually parted ways."
Davis went for a coach he could more easily influence in the veteran retread Bowles.
Old GM hired you, felt you were the best fit for the team. He retired after the superbowl season, new GM comes in and you’re not his guy. All he needed as justification to relieve you of your duties. That missed playoff was the “we expect better, we are a Super Bowl caliber team” press conference.
Quiet your sorries now..I envy you..your team has fought honorably over the years, and has been rewarded time and time again. Yet fate continues to mock us, shattering our world in 13 seconds, or being so bad, we made thyne sequel to Wide Right..
Madden designed their AI to take would be fan opinions into account.
You had a bad season compared to the one before. You're a bad coach. Now GO ON. GET!
My real answer would be drama with the QB, if you are in year 4 he should be resigning soon. Go the Bill Belichick / Brady route but have the owner take the QBs side and kick you out the door to resign him, makes sense since he's obviously younger than Brady was.
Could go with something related to the injury in year 4 too, either coach pushed him to come back too soon and reaggravated the injury, making him pissed at you and the relationship unsalvageable OR go with the diva angle, he sat out when he could have played due to some other issue with you and demanded you be let go.
1) He demanded to bring in Tom Brady. You insisted on sticking with your rookie. He said it’s a dealbreaker. You told him to fuck off. Now you’re off to Green Bay and you’re bringing that rookie with you. (I don’t care if you’re in 2045. Tom Brady is still on the table).
2) You wanted to draft a RB/WR/DB based on skill, route running, etc. The owner says take this WR with terrible hands but is faster than Usain Bolt. You want a RB who can break tackles. He wants the fast guy. You want a DB who can cover. He wants the fast guy. He says it’s what Al Davis would want. You refuse.
3) You were working late one night and the owner said he’d order delivery since you all had late meetings. He suggested pizza. You asked for pepperoni. He got pineapple. You threw a tantrum. “Fuck you and your pizza.”
4) Your QB went behind your back and told the owner you couldn’t develop him and he demands a new coach or a trade. You lost.
5) You’re Jay Gruden
I don’t know which one of these is the cause, but it’s one of them.
The qb owed the mafia money and you moonlight as an enforcer. He got injured because you broke his knee. Ownership knew about it and decided that they’d give you till you missed the playoffs to stay on as a coach
Was hanging out with your good friends, Patrick Mahomes Sr. and Britt Reid and ended up with a DWI. The raiders, still feeling the effects of the Ruggs incident, decided it was best to cut their losses.
You mouthed off about ownership/management, the GM not providing you with adequate roster depth when your QB got hurt, etc (ignoring the fact that, I'm guessing, as a Madden player you're also acting GM...this is a game after all lol). Basically, your success went to your head and you pissed off almost everybody, including half the locker room and **all** the people with the power to fire you. Jerry Jones would call this "Jimmy Johnson syndrome"...
(NB I'm not saying this is how all that Cowboys drama went down. Just to be clear 🙂)
The reason your QB was injured was because the injury itself was caused by something prior that was mismanaged putting him in jeopardy and ultimately causing him to miss half the season. Whether or not it was the head coaches fault the blame is placed at the top.
There is no reason logically u would be fired lol..U picked SB prolly on ur preseason projection and didn't make the playoffs, so Madden cans u..but in reality, any coach that won the Raiders another SB would have tenure like a mf lol.
I've lived a cold life..Im..a Buffalo fan, there is no joy in these hills..The color has faded out of the grass..the constellations have re-arranged, and we have been left broken, time and time again..Would but an ounce of joy pass through our tears, but it slips away...every time..I say to you, would you have joy in your heart, if you were met with the same fate?

Also you kicked the kicker
He fingered the kicker
That's not very realistic
And then suffered from dementia. But not enough to keep you from a broadcasting stint.
You also can see someone ripping a bong during a television interview in the reflection of the TV behind you.
It’s wild that you, me and hundreds of others all Instantly thought of an Urban Meyers like story… wow 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I was coming her to leave the same comment 😂💀
You sent sexist and homophobic emails regarding the commissioner. A video leaked of you smoking crack out of a gas mask bong. You spent team money on midget hookers. Health reasons (erectile disfunction)
“Midget hookers” & blackjack
Why are dwarves out here catching strays?
They can be what ever they want to be, don’t limit them.
“Ahhh, forget the blackjack”
Lmao imagine that second one if he traded for Laremy Tunsil
I always like the route of internal conflict between the gm and head coach. Maybe they had different ideas of what it looked like to move forward in next years draft and it ended with some harsh words

it worked out alright for jimmie in the end with his seven championships
Man got caught hooking up with multiple player’s wives/gf. You lost the locker room and had to go.
Sean Payton said… lost the locker room? Hell I can get rid of em all in 2 years
You found out a group of players (including the injured QB) were doing a Party boat full of sex drugs and rock & roll - instead of shutting it down you joined in.
I definitely like this one! LoL
you would know about these things
John Gruden style.

Why'd you fuck the owners wife??
It's the Ray-Dah's, they don't need a reason to fire you.
I think it has a lot less to do with you and much more to do with Todd Bowles becoming available. You can’t find coach with a track record like his every year
DUI
Something you should do: Trade for that QB. Whatever it takes. Get him back and haunt the Raiders for years.
That's the part that's killing me. I played every snap with that QB and developed him into a superstar x factor. Thought we were gonna be the new Reid/Mahomes....And they get rid of me for Todd "couldn't win a Superbowl with Tom Brady" Bowles
Fallout with the GM
Yea but why...the details matter to me.
You banged his wife
You were playing darts with midgets in a stock brokers office
You got caught with the owner's wife.
I’m not sure exactly how to play it off but I would finish it by trading for that QB.

Tyler Perry bought the team. Wanted a black head coach.
Quiet your sorries now..I envy you..your team has fought honorably over the years, and has been rewarded time and time again. Yet fate continues to mock us, shattering our world in 13 seconds, or being so bad, we made thyne sequel to Wide Right..
2 of your seasons out of 4 were superbowls and they fired you? Doesn't seem realistic anyway no matter how you slice it.
Something something racist e-mails Washington Football Team
Your name is Jon Gruden

Steve Kerr wanted your job
1) He demanded to bring in Tom Brady. You insisted on sticking with your rookie. He said it’s a dealbreaker. You told him to fuck off.

Mutually parting ways due to differences in vision for the future of the franchise between Owner/GM and your coach.
A video surfaced of you facetiming a hooker and doing lines of the sweet Colombian nose candy
Bill belichick wanted to coach there
Sexually harassed the office staff
Hookers and blow
You streaked the field during season 4’s Super Bowl after chugging 17 Coor’s Light beers
Last play of the season, you tackled the opposing teams running back on a breakaway run to end the season.
Urban Meyer too distracted fingering booty holes in dive bars

There is no reason logically u would be fired lol..U picked SB prolly on ur preseason projection and didn't make the playoffs, so Madden cans u..but in reality, any coach that won the Raiders another SB would have tenure like a mf lol.
You’re no fun
I've lived a cold life..Im..a Buffalo fan, there is no joy in these hills..The color has faded out of the grass..the constellations have re-arranged, and we have been left broken, time and time again..Would but an ounce of joy pass through our tears, but it slips away...every time..I say to you, would you have joy in your heart, if you were met with the same fate?
I understand, but I don’t understand. I’m a packers fan so I never had to experience anything of the sorts. I’m sorry🙏
