The model projects Josh Jacobs to be a much bigger part of his offense's pass game near the goal line this week (7.5% projected Red Zone Target Share) than he has been this year (0.0% in games he has played). When it comes to the defensive ends' role in defending against the run, Carolina's unit has been exceptional this year, projecting as the 2nd-best in football.

This game's line suggests an extreme throwing game script for the Panthers, who are enormous -13-point underdogs.

The Carolina Panthers have called the 6th-most plays in football this year, averaging a colossal 59.9 plays per game. Opposing quarterbacks have averaged 41.7 pass attempts per game against the Packers defense this year: 2nd-most in the NFL.

Romeo Doubs's 59.8 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced stat that weighs high-value offensive usage) has been substantially higher this season than it was last season at 48.6.
