The full read
Chuba Hubbard ran well and rarely against the Buccaneers: 7 carries for 33 yards and +2.2 expected points added (EPA), plus 4 catches on 5 targets for 27 yards, in Carolina's 43-13 loss at home. EPA is what a play was worth given down, distance and field position. Four of his 7 carries (57%) gained positive EPA.
His longest run never counted. Down 10-0 early in the second, second and 3 at the Tampa Bay 49, he went 30 yards to the 19, and Tommy Tremble's holding penalty brought it back; two snaps later the drive ended in a strip-sack touchdown. His best carry that stood came in the third, down 36-6: a direct snap on third and 5 at the Tampa Bay 48, 5 yards up the middle, +1.37 EPA. He also converted third and 1 twice, for 6 yards in the first and 8 in the second.
The rate beat his season and the workload did not. Through Week 6 he had 89 carries for 426 yards, 4 touchdowns and +0.09 EPA a carry, with 48% positive; here it was +0.31. He carried 28 times in Philadelphia last week.
