Capper Penguin's NFL Sunday Player Picks: Browns @ Texans - 12/4

Capper Penguin is targeting an in-form RB1 for this NFL matchup, check it out below.

Nick Chubb and the Browns are traveling to Houston Texas to take on a struggling Texans team who are going to be without Brandin Cooks. They are favored by 8 points and should have no problem getting ahead early forcing Chubb to run out the clock in the second half vs the worst rushing defense in the league. The Texans allow a league high 168.6 rushing yards per game and the Browns rush over 154 yards per game with Nick Chubb going for over 12 receiving yards in his last 5/6 games.

The past few running backs have covered this line easily barring Jeff Wilson who barely saw any touches as Tua shredded HOU in the air. Nick Chubb has covered this line in 6/10 games this season, but 3/4 of the losses were because the Browns were playing behind all game. With the highly favorable chance that they win (and definitely shouldn't get blown out) Nick Chubb should cover this rushing receiving line easily vs a terrible run defense.
