From the episode

the eventual secession to Fernando Mendoza from Kirk Cousins. Now, Cousins is playing great. If they're sitting at three and five, they lose the next two. That'd be five losses in a row. No matter how well Cousins is playing, do you transition to Mendoza at that point?

Mendoza awaits potential QB transition if Raiders lose next two games.

Fernando Mendoza is positioned as the eventual successor to Kirk Cousins in the Raiders' quarterback plan. The source suggests that if the Raiders lose their next two games and fall to 3-5 (five losses in a row), the team may transition to Mendoza regardless of Cousins' strong play; conversely, if the Raiders win and reach 5-3, Cousins likely keeps the starting role.
