- The Carolina Panthers safeties profile as the 7th-best collection of safeties in football this year when it comes to pass rush.
- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive line has afforded their quarterback just 2.30 seconds before the pass (2nd-worst in the league since the start of last season), which has a harmful impact on all air attack stats across the board.
- The Carolina Panthers defensive front has gotten pressure on opposing quarterbacks just 2.31 seconds after the snap (on average), grading out as the fastest in the league since the start of last season.
