Welcome to the new and improved Betting with Bearman. I hope you enjoyed the new look and the new platform for the relaunch, which includes a website, so make sure to bookmark www.bearmanbets.com.

News: I'll be co-hosting College Football Today on SportsGrid every Saturday morning 10a-12p

Happy Friday! I'd like to welcome all the new subscribers, as we had a record month of sign-ups! Hope you all enjoy the newsletter!

We took the "L" last night with Josh Jacobs Rush + Rec prop. We got the snaps and targets we needed with 27 total touches, but he only had 52 total yards. But we have a lot on the card this week to bounce back with.

Today, we have a full NFL Week 8 and CFB Week 9 card, with some Friday action tonight and a full board for Saturday and Sunday. We also take a look at the start of the 2026-27 NBA Cup with two picks below.

Los Angeles Chargers at Los Angeles Rams (-7, 43.5)

  • I am going to keep going under on Chargers games as long as McDaniel and Herbert can't figure this out. Who knows, maybe they found an offense during the bye week, but they haven't just been bad; they've been historically bad.
    • League-worst 15.0 PPG
    • 28th in yards (287.2)
    • 31st in yards per play (4.4)
    • 28th in passing (168.2)
    • Last in EPA/play by a lot (-0.209)
  • Only 12.7% of Chargers drives have ended in TDs — worst in the NFL.
  • They are also last in points per drive (1.25) and have yet to have a lead at halftime this season.
