The Kansas City Chiefs are set to face the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium in Week 11 action on November 24.
This matchup is expected to result in an easy win for the 9-1 Chiefs, who are looking to bounce back after their first regular season loss. The 3-7 Panthers have struggled all season and would need to mount a heroic effort to hand Kansas City its second defeat.
On Chiefs Wire, we are conducting a thought experiment. We’ll call this game of hypotheticals ‘Gimme Him.’
Let’s imagine that the Chiefs could make a trade for any one of Carolina’s most valuable players for nothing in return.
Which Panther would make the most impact for Kansas City through the rest of the season?
Carolina’s offense focuses heavily on the ground game, which has given running back Chuba Hubbard an opportunity to make a name for himself as one of the NFL’s most reliable rushers. Hubbard has carried the ball 161 times this season for 818 yards.
While Kansas City already has stellar running backs and the Chiefs are often more inclined to let Patrick Mahomes throw the ball than rely on their run game, having a breakout rusher like Hubbard could be a great asset for Andy Reid’s offense.
When Kansas City visits Carolina this weekend the defense must keep Hubbard’s yardage limited.
