From the article

Kirk Cousins is averaging 265.5 passing yards and 2.4 TD passes a game this season. The Raiders simply cannot run the ball, which is a big reason why Cousins is averaging 35.4 pass attempts per game. Cousins faces a 49ers defense that has been something of a pass funnel, with opponents throwing on the Niners on 59.5% of their offensive snaps – the 10th-highest rate in the league. Cousins is a high-end QB2 and a fine streaming option for Week 9.
