The Panthers are a heavy 7-point underdog in this week's game, likely leading to an extreme passing game script.The model projects the Panthers to be the 6th-most pass-heavy offense in the league near the end zone (in a neutral context) at the moment with a 60.2% red zone pass rate.Taking on a measly 1.7% of his offense's red zone carries this year (23rd percentile when it comes to quarterbacks), Bryce Young's immobility makes him no threat as a ball-carrier near the end zone.The Carolina offensive line profiles as the 10th-best in the league this year in pass protection, which has a positive impact on all air attack statistics across the board.This year, the shaky Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense has been gouged for a monstrous 1.75 passing touchdowns per game to opposing offenses: the 6th-biggest rate in football.
