Carolina Panthers vs Eagles top prop bets to make for NFL Week 5 game
By Dean Jones
Chuba Hubbard – Carolina Panthers RB
- Hubbard anytime TD and Carolina Panthers to win (+135)
This all comes down to whether the Carolina Panthers activate Christian McCaffrey for the contest. Although it does appear likely with the running back’s status as doubtful and Matt Rhule’s preference to err on the side of caution with his best offensive player.
That means another big opportunity awaits Chuba Hubbard. The fourth-round pick is growing steadily in stature with every passing week and this could be the game we get a breakout performance from the Oklahoma State product.
As stated previously, the Philadelphia Eagles are terrible against the run. They’re currently ranked No. 32 in the league when it comes to rushing yards allowed with 150.2 yards-per-game conceded, which will be music to Hubbard’s ears if McCaffrey misses out as expected.
Carolina has found life difficult in pass protection this season. However, they seem to be creating enough holes in run support and if the same occurs in Week 5, expect Hubbard to have the best day of his professional career.
There’s been far more good than bad where Hubbard is concerned during his initial transition and with more responsibility on his shoulders last week. The running back finding the end-zone and Carolina winning looks like a tremendous bit of value to us.
