The Baltimore Ravens will take to the road to play the Carolina Panthers. These teams have some high-profile stars, but they did not see any action in Game 1. The fact that the preseason is just three games this season, Game 2 should be like Game 3 used to be often referred to as the dress rehearsal, with starters playing more minutes than any other game. There should be some series led by Lamar Jackson for Baltimore, as well as the debut of Christian McCaffrey for the Panthers. The Panthers managed 21 points last week without much from starters on offense, and they should be able to put up some points here. I also think with Jackson taking some snaps, the Baltimore offense should be able to put some points up, as well. While the points should be flowing here, the rest of the game in my eyes favors Carolina, and getting better than a field goal in an NFL preseason game is a lot. Carolina should score plenty, and the back door will be open here as well. Go with Carolina and the OVER in this one.
