Young (QB8) faces a litmus test against Green Bay's solid pass defense.

Young is QB8 in fantasy points per game despite last week's poor performance (51.8% completion, 163 passing yards, 6.4 YPA, 69.6% catchable throw rate, two interceptions). Overall, Young ranks 13th in YPA, 19th in passing success rate, 26th in catchable throw rate, and 12th in hero throw rate among 34 qualifying passers. This week against Green Bay's solid pass defense (12th-fewest YPA allowed since Week 3, 4th-lowest passing TD rate, 7th-lowest CPOE, 12th-lowest pressure rate), the source frames this as a litmus test to see if Young has turned into a pumpkin or can bounce back.
