From the article

STACKED’s take
Young faces elite Lions pass rush with Panthers' injured O-line; his deep-ball tendency under pressure is exploitable.
Panthers quarterback Bryce Young currently faces the second-highest pressure rate among qualifying quarterbacks at 43.5% with the fifth-quickest average time to pressure of 2.56 seconds. The Lions' defensive pass rush ranks in the top-10 in pressure rate at 39% with the second-quickest average time to pressure of 2.46 seconds. While under pressure, Young's completion percentage sits at 49%, boosted by a 5.01% completion percentage over expected. Critically, under pressure his air yards per attempt is 14.3 while just 7.8 when not pressured—indicating he extends plays vertically when feeling heat. The Panthers' offensive line is banged up with starting tackle Ikem Ekwonu on reserve/PUP, guard Damien Lewis not practicing with an elbow, and rookie first-round pick Monroe Freeling limited in practice in concussion protocol. The Lions' pass rush, particularly Aidan Hutchinson and Alim McNeill, should win their individual matchups relatively consistently. This is a make-or-break opportunity for the Lions, who are in the top five in explosive passing plays allowed this season.
