Quarterback Lamar Jackson starred as the Baltimore Ravens sealed 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 in a touchdown before throwing for two more.

It marks 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,” said John Harbaugh.

“I just told him (Jim) that 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 appearing on the big stage of the 2013 Super Bowl.

“It’s pretty cool to be a part of history,” Jackson said of the win.

“We finished the game the right way. We started slowly, 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 on the same page, hit the ground running, made the plays and went with what we know,” Jackson said.

‘Henry gets one shot and goes for what he knows. There’s no stopping that man.’
