MVP Jackson leads Ravens to victory at Chargers

Quarterback Lamar Jackson starred as the Baltimore Ravens secured a 30-23 victory against the Los Angeles Chargers in the latest edition of the ‘Harbaugh Bowl’.

Jackson got the Ravens on the board when he ran for a touchdown before throwing for two more.

This is the third time siblings John and Jim Harbaugh, who coach the Ravens and Chargers, respectively, have met in the NFL, with the former undefeated.

“This is a big win. Proud of our guys,” John Harbaugh said.

“I just told him (Jim) you’re a great coach and you have a great team and I love you.”

In the previous two meetings, John led the Ravens to victory over Jim’s San Francisco 49ers in a 2011 regular season game before delivering on the big stage in the 2013 Super Bowl.

“It’s pretty cool that I’m a part of history,” Jackson said of the win.

“We finished the game the right way. We started slow – we have to fix that and I believe we will be where we want to be.”

Jackson, the 2023 NFL Most Valuable Player, threw for 177 yards, while running back Derrick Henry ran for 140 yards to lead Baltimore’s offense.

“We just got in sync, hit the ground running, made plays, followed what we know,” Jackson said.

“Henry gets a carry and went for what he knows. That man, he can’t be stopped.”
