Carolina's defense was #18 in the NFL last season in yards allowed, points, and versus the pass. The 16 interceptions their QBs threw were tied for the fourth-most in the NFL, and it will probably be worse in 2021 with a rotation of Sam Darnold, P.J. Walker, and Will Grier. Interceptions set the other team up often with excellent field position for field goals and TDs. This opener is indoors in Indianapolis at Lucas Oil Stadium. Indy coach Frank Reich's preseason home games have been scores of 20-19, 23-17, 27-17, and 21-18. Take the OVER.
