Panthers @ Packers (-3.5)

Carolina is desperate trying to overcompensate for their lack of pass rush with the blitz. The problem is that Jordan Love has been masterful in navigating around the blitz with quick/leading throws. Missing Jaelon Phillips and Bobby Brown has left this defensive line bereft of serious pass rushing talent.

Meanwhile, Carolina's offensive line has been lousy at pass protection. The left tackle Rasheed Walker has once again emerged as a serious point of weakness.

And for some reason, Bryce Young isn't trusting himself enough to throw into tight coverage and small windows. He's double-cocking the ball and second guessing himself. His mentality is to be questioned here.

When this pocket crushes down quickly on Bryce Young, it compromises his vision. His best throws have arguably come outside the pocket.

This Carolina offense has been predictable. First downs are almost always running plays. Where are the short routes and the quick throws? Where are the hot reads outside of Chuba Hubbard? What is Dave Canales and Brad Idzik doing here to make life easier for Bryce Young? Especially when they should be aware of how mentally fragile he is.
