But what if MS is trying to prove to DS that Cousins is better and can lead this team? If Cousins does well and the team wins.... do we keep MS for the final year, drop the read option, and start Cousins?

Absolutely not. Not at this point. And anyway, if MS was trying to prove that particular point, he would have started Cousins at the beginning of the year and not after all of this. This is a big "f-you" from Shanahan to Snyder. This has nothing to do with protecting anybody.
