So -- assume that Cousins starts the Giants game with a couple of picks and we get in a hole quickly. What does Gruden do? Starting 0-3 and 0-2 in the division would be pretty disasterous, and I wonder if Gruden would make a change.

To be clear, not advocating that. I still think that Kirk gives us the best chance to win, even though he's been shaky. But his body language has been just dreadful -- the guy looks defeated. Aaron Rodgers didn't have a good game the other night, and although you could see it really bothered him, he didn't have his head down or seem to withdraw. (I know, Cousins isn't to be confused with Rodgers -- but it's the mental toughness that is concerning; Gruden already shut him down once before for too many picks).
