And just like that we are in October. Week 5 of the NFL season is underway after the thriller last night in Los Angeles and Week 6 of the CFB renews the Miami-Florida State rivalry as ranked teams.

Postseason baseball is in full swing, with eight teams left fighting for the World Series title.

Make sure you listen to the Betting with Bearman podcast this week as we welcome Joe DeLeon, from the Ruffino and Joe show, to Betting with Bearman to preview all the big games in college football this weekend, including the big Miami-FSU tilt in Tallahassee.

NFL Week 5 Action

We got off to a good start last night, hitting the Christian McCaffrey over 6.5 catches prop. We missed on the Same Game Parlay, not seeing the Niners offensive explosion coming.

Miami Dolphins at Carolina Panthers (-1.5, 45.5)

If you are going to dive in, might as well dive in with this beautiful game.

Yes, the Dolphins showed signs of life on Monday night vs. the Jets, scoring three TDs, two to the secret weapon Darren Waller. But that was vs. the Jets and they still only had 300 total yards in the game. More importantly, they lost Tyreek Hill, which was the main reason they were moving the ball for the first 2.5 quarters. Waller had the TDs, but Hill had 6 catches, helping move the ball and setting up two of the scores.

The Dolphins scored a TD on the possession after Hill left, then went 3-and-out twice before scoring a FG late. I have major concerns on this offense without Hill.

As for the Panthers, we have taken their game under each of the last 3 weeks, hitting on two and then missing last week, when they somehow allowed 42 points to the Patriots. 35 was on the defense, but still awful.

The offense continues to be terrible, 28th in the league at 18.3 PPG, 24th in yards, 26th in rushing, 21st in passing. They score 30 on the Falcons with only 224 total yards (that’s how bad the Falcons were). Starting RB Chuba Hubbard is likely to miss this week’s game and although Rico Dowdle should have a field day against the poor Dolphins defense, he’s also someone who has had 20+ carries only five times in his career.

As bad as the Dolphins defense is, and they are bad, the Panthers don’t have many weapons to exploit it. If anything, they will run like the Jets did in the first half last night and chew up the clock, which the Dolphins will also do with runs and short passes.
