The Carolina Panthers had not won a road game all season when they visited a 7-5 Seattle Seahawks team still battling for an NFC West title. But the Panthers took it to the Seahawks early and then leaned on their running game late, specifically backup running back Chuba Hubbard, to earn a big-time win.
After starting in 10 games as a rookie, mostly due to the injury of former Carolina All-Pro running back Christian McCaffrey, Hubbard has started just once in his second season after the Panthers signed veteran D’Onta Foreman, but Hubbard had a season-high on Sunday.
