Behind Jared Goff, this remains a top-10 passing attack that's on the border of a top-five unit. The one thing they have been missing thus far is explosive plays. Goff has faced a pressure rate of 32.2% (seventh lowest), has a sack rate of 6.0% (15th), while the offense line ranks second in pass-block win rate (60%)

Goff leads efficient top-10 passing attack with stellar protection against Panthers' depleted secondary.

Goff has led a top-10 passing attack that ranks third in passer rating (116.1), sixth in dropback EPA (0.286), and fifth in success rate (53.2%) through three weeks. The Lions' pass protection has been stellar with Goff facing a 32.2% pressure rate (seventh lowest) and 6.0% sack rate (15th). Against the Panthers' weakened secondary missing both starting cornerbacks (Mike Jackson and Jaycee Horn on IR), Goff is positioned for a favorable matchup, particularly with Amon-Ra St. Brown expected to exploit zone coverage over the middle against less-experienced cornerbacks.
