13, with the Panthers pulling off a 31-28 upset as 10-point home underdogs, the same layout as this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina led the league with 8 outright wins as an underdog this year.<\/p>\n<p>There are reasons that we will cover here in greater detail that will make it hard for Carolina to run back the same result.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the short story is that Carolina pulled off that upset thanks to timely turnovers and ball control, winning the high-variance plays.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams averaged 7.4 yards per play in that matchup (their fourth-highest of the season).<\/p>\n<p>The Rams only faced 5 third downs all game.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams had only 1 penalty.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams scored a touchdown on four of their five possessions without a turnover.<\/p>\n<p>But the Panthers won the turnover battle 3-0.<\/p>\n<p>Turnovers are always massive, but those three were significant swings in the game.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina had a pick-6 for a score, a deflected interception in their own end zone, and a strip sack with the Rams in position to attempt a potential game-tying field goal.<\/p>\n<p>Those three plays resulted in an EPA of -16.1 for the Rams, the most significant turnover swing for the Panthers in a game this season and the worst for the Rams this season.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina was 7 of 15 on third downs (46.7%), the second-most conversions for them in a game this season.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina was also 3 of 3 on fourth downs, two of which were touchdowns from outside of the red zone.<\/p>\n<p>The Carolina offensive touchdowns in that game were from 35, 33, and 43 yards out.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the long scoring plays, Carolina had the ball for 35:16 of the clock, and their most significant time of possession margin (10:32) in a game this season.<\/p>\n<p>That is the top-down recipe for pulling off a huge upset.<\/p>\n<p>Despite that upset already on the board, this game is lined up the same way for a reason.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams enter the playoffs as the league's highest-scoring offense and with the second-highest point differential (+172).<\/p>\n<p>Carolina is 23rd in point differential (-69), the only team in the postseason this year with a negative scoring margin.<\/p>\n<p>The only other teams to ever have a worse point differential and make the postseason were the 2004 Rams (-73), 2011 Broncos (-81), and 2010 Seahawks (-97).<\/p>\n<p>The silver lining is that all three of those teams won in the Wild Card Round, with the <strong>Tim<\/strong> <strong>Tebow<\/strong>-to-<strong>Demaryius<\/strong> <strong>Thomas<\/strong> overtime touchdown and the Beast Quake run among the most infamous plays in modern playoff history.<\/p>\n<p>To give Carolina some credit, they are at least battle-tested.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina has a slight rest advantage, and although this is not a 10 a.m. PT kickoff, it is a west coast team coming across country, which could be a variable in another attempt to pull off an upset.<\/p>\n<p>If the Rams have another area of concern, it is special teams.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams are 31st in EPA on special teams this season (-50.0).<\/p>\n<p>Even since the release of <strong>Joshua Karty<\/strong>, they are 29th (-18.1).<\/p>\n<h2>Quarterback<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Matthew Stafford: <\/strong>Stafford enters the postseason leading the NFL in passing yardage (4,707) and passing touchdowns (46).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sean<\/strong> <strong>McVay<\/strong> altered his offense this season to adjust to the current defensive climate.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford played a career-high 59.6% of his snaps under center this year, which led the league.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford took 250 dropbacks under center.<\/p>\n<p>The next closest quarterback was at 189.<\/p>\n<p>As a byproduct of playing more under center, Stafford used play action on a career-high 36.7% of his pass attempts, which also led the league.<\/p>\n<p>On his under-center dropbacks, Stafford used play action 86.1% of the time.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford threw 20 touchdowns to 1 interception on those dropbacks.<\/p>\n<p>Keep a pin in that, because this is an area where we could see McVay calibrate for the rematch.<\/p>\n<p>When these teams met in Week 13, Stafford was efficient.<\/p>\n<p>He still threw for 8.7 yards per pass attempt and a pair of touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>The Panthers are a unique defense in that they do not generate much pressure or have a wealth of stars, yet they did limit passing production.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina allowed 11.6 passing points per game this season, which was eighth in the league.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina only pressured Stafford on 13.3% of his dropbacks, his second-lowest pressure rate in a game this season.<\/p>\n<p>The Panthers were 31st in pressure rate (29.6%) and 27th in sack rate (5.6%) during the regular season.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford averaged 9.2 yards per pass attempt without pressure in the first matchup.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams moved the ball all game as noted, but 3 turnovers were his undoing, all of which cost the Rams significantly.<\/p>\n<p>Credit <strong>Ejiro Evero<\/strong> (who coached under McVay) for getting enough disruptive plays in a game where Carolina was down multiple defensive starters in the secondary.<\/p>\n<p>We also saw this offense struggle against <strong>Raheem Morris<\/strong> a few weeks ago, another coach who was with McVay and understands this offense and Stafford.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina was without <strong>Jaycee Horn<\/strong> and <strong>Tre\u2019Von Moehrig<\/strong> in that game.<\/p>\n<p>Where Evero and this Carolina defense found their success was by limiting that production on those play-action and under-center passes, something we have covered this season.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina is a defense that disguises their coverages from pre-snap to post-snap at a high rate, which changes the picture for passers turning their back to the defense.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina has done a good job against these meta-breaking offenses.<\/p>\n<p>They limited <strong>Sam<\/strong> <strong>Darnold<\/strong> to 5.4 yards per pass attempt.<\/p>\n<p>They held <strong>Borck<\/strong> <strong>Purdy<\/strong> to 6.0 Y\/A with 3 interceptions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Jordan<\/strong> <strong>Love<\/strong> had 7.4 yards per attempt, but 0 touchdowns and an interception.<\/p>\n<p>This season, Carolina allowed a league-low 5.6 yards per pass attempt on play-action passes.<\/p>\n<p>On non-play-action passes, they allowed 7.8 Y\/A, which was 29th.<\/p>\n<p>That was the same story in this game in Week 13.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford had a 57.1% play-action rate in the first matchup, his highest rate of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Using play action that week, Stafford was 10 of 16 (62.5%), but for only 83 yards (5.2 Y\/A).<\/p>\n<p>On his non-play-action passes, Stafford was 8 of 12 (66.7%) for 160 yards (13.3 Y\/A).<\/p>\n<p>Will this be an area where McVay adjusts in the rematch and plays more of a traditional dropback game?<\/p>\n<p>The flipside of that first game plan was that the Rams also did not play much heavy personnel, which has been their bread and butter this season.<\/p>\n<p>In that first game, the Rams were in 13 personnel 17.6% of the time, their second-lowest rate in a game over their final 11.<\/p>\n<p>Their average rate of 13 personnel over that span was 44.9%.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford was only 3 of 4 for 20 yards (5.0 Y\/A) out of 13 personnel in that game.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams were in 11 personnel for 80.4% of their snaps in the Week 13 matchup.<\/p>\n<p>The next-highest rate of 11 personnel for the Rams over that 11-game span was 70.9%.<\/p>\n<p>Stafford threw his 2 interceptions out of 11 personnel that game, but he also averaged 9.3 yards per pass attempt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bryce Young:<\/strong> Young did not stuff the stat sheet this season, completing 63.2% of his passes (22nd) for 6.2 yards per pass attempt (29th), 9.8 yards per completion (30th), and a 4.7% touchdown rate.<\/p>\n<p>He threw for 200 yards in only four games this season.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina ran an ultra-conservative game plan this season, throwing the ball 4% below expectations.<\/p>\n<p>That was 29th in the league.<\/p>\n<p>When these teams played in Week 13, Carolina threw the ball 20.4% below expectations, their lowest rate of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Young was hyper-efficient against the Rams, completing 15 of 20 passes (75%) for 206 yards (10.3 Y\/A) and 3 touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>That was the highest yards per pass attempt of his career.<\/p>\n<p>Young only threw the ball 4 times on first down plays.<\/p>\n<p>He was 7 of 10 for 44 yards (4.4 Y\/A) on first and second down plays as 8 of 10 of 162 yards (16.2 Y\/A) with 3 touchdowns on third and fourth down.<\/p>\n<p>His 3 touchdowns were a 35-yard pass to <strong>Chuba<\/strong> <strong>Hubbard<\/strong> on 3rd and 8, a\u00a033-yard touchdown to <strong>Jalen<\/strong> <strong>Coker<\/strong> on a 4th and 3, and a\u00a043-yard touchdown to <strong>Tetairoa McMillan<\/strong> on a 4th and 2.<\/p>\n<p>Carolina has struggled to run the football, and that is a tough recipe to replicate since much of the passing production allowed by the Rams has come via volume versus efficiency.<\/p>\n<p>The Rams have been a good pass defense overall, allowing 6.7 yards per pass attempt (10th) and 10.5 yards per completion (9th) along with a 4.3% touchdown rate.<\/p>\n<p>Opponents were able to get their fantasy points against the Rams via volume since they faced 34.8 pass attempts per game (6th most).<\/p>\n<p>Where Carolina did have success in the first matchup was when the Rams failed to get home with pressure.<\/p>\n<p>From a clean pocket in Week 13, Young was 14 of 17 (82.4%) for 198 yards (11.6 Y\/A) with 3 touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p>Under pressure, Young was 1 of 3 for 8 yards with 2 sacks.<\/p>\n\t<div class='sfa-image-adds' style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n\t\t<a
