Who Should I Start? Chuba Hubbard or Isaiah Spiller

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard carried the ball 23 times for 83 yards and added two catches for nine yards in a 9-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 18. Hubbard easily led the team in rushing in the regular-season finale as Miles Sanders saw just three touches in the loss. Hubbard ultimately turned in a successful season as he wrestled the starting role away from Sanders mid-season and never looked back. His role heading into next season remains up in the air, however, as the Panthers are likely to have a new head coach and general manager in place.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Isaiah Spiller could have a big role again in a Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. Spiller led the Chargers backfield in Week 15, picking up 50 yards on 16 carries. It was hard to tell what the real plan was as the Chargers had no chance as early as the first quarter, but Spiller did end up getting fed the ball. With the Chargers having nothing to play for and just trying to close out the season, they may stick with Spiller to see what they have for next season, especially since Austin Ekeler will be a free agent.
