- The Panthers are a 3.5-point underdog in this game, likely leading to a passing game script.
- THE BLITZ projects this game to see the 4th-smallest volume of plays run out of all the games this week at 127.3 plays, accounting for the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
- The Carolina Panthers have called the 2nd-least plays in the NFL this year, averaging a mere 53.4 plays per game.
