The Las Vegas Raiders need a quarterback, and who knows what to look for in a quarterback more than Tom Brady, the greatest quarterback to ever play the game. The Raiders need a franchise guy, or a player good enough to get them to and through the postseason at the toughest position in all of sports. Brady is trying to help them do that.

Now this isn't an article about how great Tom Brady is. But, having Tom Brady as a minority owner is one of the best things the Raiders could have done, it's just a shame it took the league this long to let it go through. And, we have already seen a bit of it play out. We have already seen some of the magic happen. Let me just put it this way: Ben Johnson, the Chicago Bears head coach, wouldn't have even entertained the idea of going to the Raiders had it not been for Brady.

And you can probably say the same thing about the Raiders and their chances at landing Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. Had he not been in communication as a rep for the Raiders, Stafford wouldn't even have interest, or certainly not as much interest as he does now.

And, we are definitely seeing that play out with a bit of "Fate", too.

Raiders' Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford meet in Montana on pure fate

If you really think Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford just happened to run into each other at a ski resort in Montana — of all places — at the exact same time, I’ve got a bridge to sell you.

According to Jordan Schultz, an NFL insider, Brady and Stafford met in Montana and talked about potentially joining forces. But, according to NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport, the two did not plan to meet, or even have an extensive convo about joining forces. Rapoport explained that the two ran into each other at a ski resort in Montana.

Yes, because people just run into one another at ski resorts in Montana very often.

Either way, it was fate, if we're going that route, that the Raiders have on their side, with a touch of Tom Brady. No matter what side is correct, it sounds like Stafford is very interested in playing with the Raiders. That could instantly solve their QB issue.
