The 3rd edition of the Harbaugh Bowl also goes to the elder brother. John Harbaugh‘s Ravens won the game against Jim Harbaugh‘s Chargers by 30-23. There were some blunders by the Chargers’ star Quentin Johnston which cost them the game.

The Chargers coach talked to the reporters after the game and said on the blunders, “I think we all have some things we wish we played, coached better. That’s how I feel. That’s my reaction.” Raves HC understands that mistakes can happen. He is 0-3 now against his elder brother. Now they will be eager to work on them in the practice.

Quentin Johnston had 5 targets and 3 drops in the week 12 game but didn’t have any receptions or touchdowns. They were overpowered in the physical aspect of the game as the Ravens defense kept coming at them. There were many firsts for the Chargers.

The Ravens had 212 rushing yards. Jim Harbaugh slacked on Monday as it was the first time a rival team scored 200+ rushing yards against a team coached by him in the NFL. They also had 4 drops in the game, the most by them in this season. Though John Harbaugh praised his brother before the game and said, “He’s a great coach, he’s a great man, a great leader.”

Both brothers shared a happy moment on the sidelines before the kickoff. But the result made everyone in the Chargers locker room unhappy.

After Jim Harbaugh, Baker Mayfield blames the entire locker room

The quarterback Baker Mayfield didn’t blame Johnston alone for his mistakes and said, “That’s the tough part of the NFL. He’s a playmaker. He’s done an incredible job all year. It’s on all of us. It’s on me, not just him. He’s a fighter. You trust him. I’m gonna keep throwing him the ball.” That’s wonderful.

Lamar Jackson was ahead of him. He had 16 of 22 (73% completion rate) in 177 yards with 2 touchdowns while Mayfield only had 21 of 36 (58% completion rate) in 218 yards without any TD. But nothing is lost if we look at the bigger picture.

Jim Harbaugh’s team is still in a pretty good spot. With 7 wins and 4 losses, they are 2nd in the AFC West. The locker room would be ready for the week 13 matchup against the Falcons on December 1. In their conference, they slipped to the 6th position as the Ravens climbed above them. It’s high time.
