Lamar Jackson and John Harbaugh emerged victorious on Monday night in the Harbaugh Bowl.

Jackson, John and the Ravens impressed fans with a decisive win over Justin Herbert, Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers, defeating them 30-23 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.

A great win for the team and a big victory for the older Harbaugh brother.

Baltimore improved to 8-4 on the season, while Los Angeles dropped to 7-4. The victory pushed Baltimore half a game ahead of the Chargers in the playoff race, claiming the No. 1 Wild Card spot from them.

The Ravens dominated the second half, out-scoring the Chargers 16-10 after holding just a one point lead at halftime.

Jackson completed 16-of-20 passes for 177 yards, adding three touchdowns, including a 10-yard rushing score. Running back Derrick Henry added 24 carries for 140 yards.

Henry was surpassed by Saquon Barkley in total rushing yards last nigh with 1,392, as Barkley set an Eagles single-game record with 255 rushing yards against the Los Angeles Rams.

After tonight’s game, the Ravens’ running back sits in second place with 1,362 total rushing yards.

On the other side of the ball, Herbert completed 21-of-36 passes for 218 yards, with one rushing touchdown.

The Ravens and Jackson earned fans’ approval on Monday night as they sit narrowly in second place in the AFC North, trailing the 8-3 Pittsburgh Steelers.

Final: Ravens 30, Chargers 23.
John Harbaugh remains undefeated over his brother Jim. Lamar Jackson has another memorable Monday Night. And the Ravens (8-4) move to within a half-game of the Steelers (8-3) for first place in the AFC North.

Lamar Jackson has outplayed every QB he face this season even the ones he lost to

I cannot think of a single time during the Lamar Jackson era that he didn’t get a win when it was needed.

If there is any dramatic improvement from Lamar Jackson this year compared to previous years it’s sack avoidance. He’s been damn near impossible to sack this season.

What are your takeaways from the Ravens’ Week 12 win over the Chargers?

That’s a MASSIVE win before a clash with Philly
Big bounceback from the offense and the defense has looked much better.
Big kudos to the OL. Lamar was protected and they grinded on short downs.#RavensFlock

Derrick Henry was held out of the end zone for the first time this season but piled up 140 rushing yards and got the Ravens offense going.

On Sunday, the Ravens will aim for the No. 1 spot in the AFC North as they host the 9-2 Philadelphia Eagles and Barkley.
