Both the Packers and Panthers are described as pass-first teams, though the running game may play a significant role in this matchup. The Panthers have relied heavily on their primary running back, Chuba Hubbard, who has amassed 459 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 96 carries this season. He is also a notable receiver, with two touchdown catches and ranking as the fifth most targeted player on the roster. Hubbard is averaging about five yards per carry.
The Packers' rushing game has seen contributions from multiple players, with Marshawn Lloyd serving as the primary back in the absence of Josh Jacobs, who is reportedly dealing with off-field issues. Lloyd has accounted for a third of the team's rushes. Across the team, ten different players have carried the ball, with only three rushing touchdowns. Lloyd has two of these touchdowns, with quarterback Jordan Love scoring the other. With Jacobs returning to the lineup, the Packers' backfield is expected to become more dynamic. The Panthers' run defense is ranked as the worst in the league, suggesting a potential for a strong performance from Jacobs.
Despite their passing ambitions, both teams' running games, led by Hubbard for the Panthers and Jacobs for the Packers, could be key to controlling possession and field position in the game. Below is a comparison of the running backs' statistics:
| | Carries | Yards | Touchdowns | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Chuba Hubbard | 96 | 459 | 4 | | Marshawn Lloyd | 54 | 142 | 2 |
