Chuba Hubbard comes in with a rushing yards prop of 49.5 for this week’s game. Betting the over offers a payout of -124, which translates to implied odds of 55%, while the under pays out at -108 (52%).

In 12 games, Chuba Hubbard has rushed the ball 143 times for 557 yards. Currently, he ranks 28th among running backs in rushing yards gained. Look for Hubbard to get plenty of carries and take advantage of a good matchup against the Saints defense. I like the over on his rushing yards prop.

Saints VS. Panthers Predictions

Since the lines have opened, the Saints have moved from -6.5 point favorites to their current line of -5.

On the spread, I’m taking Carolina at +5. I’m expecting the Carolina rushing attack to take advantage of a New Orleans defense that struggled to defend the run in their most recent game. Lock in Carolina +5.
