In the biggest game on the Week 12 schedule, the Los Angeles Chargers (7-3) welcome the Baltimore Ravens (7-4) to SoFi Stadium for Monday Night Football. Who wins the battle of the Harbaugh brothers?

This game could play a pivotal role in how the AFC playoff race stacks up. Currently, the Chargers sit at No. 5 in the AFC playoff race and the Ravens are right behind them at No. 6. The Ravens have won four of the last five meetings between these two teams and have the reigning NFL MVP, Lamar Jackson, on the roster.

The Chargers are coming off a thrilling victory over the Cincinnati Bengals last Sunday night and are looking to build momentum for a playoff run in Jim Harbaugh's first year with the team. How do the experts see this one shaking out?

Vinnie Iyer, The Sporting News: Ravens 24, Chargers 20

Iyer: "The Second HarBowl is finally upon us 12 seasons after the first one, and let's hope the sequel can live up to the Ravens-49ers thriller from Super Bowl 47. John Harbaugh's Ravens hope that Lamar Jackson can rebound vs. the Chargers, the team that thwarted him in his first playoff game. They also need the defense to stay on point vs. Justin Herbert, as Jim Harbaugh's offense can toggle between run-heavy and pass-happy, making both work. In the end, Jackson will help his team make a few more big plays than Herbert to steal another lower-scoring classic."

Bill Bender, The Sporting News: Chargers 23, Ravens 22

Bender: "The long-awaited sequel to the Harbaugh Bowl is here. Chargers defensive coordinator Jesse Minter, who was an assistant with the Ravens from 2017-20, has the task of slowing down the tandem of Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry. Justin Herbert has been efficient at home. He averages 212.6 passing yards per game with seven TDs and no interceptions. This will be the best game of the week, and Jim Harbaugh gets the win against John this time."

Marcus Mosher, The 33rd Team: Chargers 28, Ravens 24

Mosher: "This might be the best game of the weekend, and it happens on Monday Night Football with John and Jim Harbaugh facing each other once again.

Both teams are fighting for playoff seeding, and the Baltimore Ravens still have an outside chance of winning the division. Baltimore's defense can be exposed through the air, and this sets up a big Justin Herbert performance. Take the Los Angeles Chargers not only to cover the three-point spread but also to win at home and continue to rack up the wins in the AFC."
