From the article

The hot start for Cousins and the Raiders has faded in recent weeks. Three straight weeks of three touchdowns for Cousins, a 3-0 record, and being one of the surprise teams in the NFL has turned into back-to-back losses, three total touchdowns for Cousins, and Fernando Mendoza seeing his first NFL action in the blowout loss to the depleted-in-the-secondary Patriots.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Cousins' fade from hot start to QB19 makes him a bye-week fill-in, not a starter.

Cousins' hot start (3 TDs per week, 3-0 record) has faded to back-to-back losses with only 3 total TDs; Fernando Mendoza saw first NFL action in blowout loss to Patriots; upcoming schedule vs. Bills and Rams offers little reprieve, with 49ers, Seahawks, and Broncos on schedule by Week 11 pointing to continued struggles; ranked QB19 in Roster Rate, making him more of a bye-week option than stable weekly starter.
