Ravens vs Chargers: Lamar Jackson takes on Justin Herbert in AFC showdown – latest updates, crazy plays, and game analysis!

In Week 12, the Baltimore Ravens (8-3) and the Los Angeles Chargers are set to face off in Sunday’s “Sunday Night Football.” The two teams are going in opposite directions, the Ravens have won five of their last six games, and the Chargers have lost consecutive games to fall to the bottom of the AFC West.

Quarterback Lamar Jackson has been a driving force behind the Ravens’ streak, throwing seven touchdowns and just one interception in the five wins. The Ravens’ offense has scored at least 31 points in five straight games. Meanwhile, Chargers head coach Brandon Staley is under pressure to turn things around as his team’s defense has struggled, ranking second to last in the league and last against the pass.

Both teams will be without key players due to injuries, as Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is likely out for the season with an ankle injury, while the Chargers’ star edge rusher Joey Bosa is also on injured reserve with a foot injury.

The Ravens-Chargers game is available to stream on NBC and Peacock. In the first quarter, the Chargers took a 3-0 lead after a 39-yard field goal. Rams head coach Jason Garrett, not Cris Collinsworth, is calling the game alongside Mike Tirico.

Ravens tight end Mark Andrews may be out for the season after suffering an ankle injury, according to coach John Harbaugh. An MRI revealed a cracked fibula and ankle ligament injury. However, there is a possibility he may return later in the season depending on his recovery.

The Ravens are favored to win the game, with some sources predicting scores in the range of 29-23 to 34-30. The comparisons to the Baltimore Ravens’ 2000 defense have been noted in light of the stellar performance of the Ravens’ dual-threat quarterback Lamar Jackson.
