At a -3-point disadvantage, the Panthers are underdogs in this week's game, suggesting more of a reliance on throwing than their normal approach.The leading projections forecast the Panthers to be the 9th-most pass-heavy team in the NFL near the goal line (context-neutralized) right now with a 59.7% red zone pass rate.When it comes to pocket protection (and the positive impact it has on all passing attack metrics), the offensive line of the Carolina Panthers ranks as the 10th-best in the league this year.The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense has yielded the 8th-most passing touchdowns in the NFL: 1.71 per game this year.When it comes to linebackers in pass coverage, Tampa Bay's collection of LBs has been easily exploitable this year, projecting as the 4th-worst in football.
