A pair of second-place AFC teams wrap up the Week 12 slate on Monday night as the Baltimore Ravens visit the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Ravens find themselves looking up at the Pittsburgh Steelers after being shut down by their AFC North rivals 18-16 in Week 11. Quarterback Lamar Jackson was held to 207 yards passing with a touchdown and a pick, while running back Derrick Henry mustered 65 yards.
The Chargers have surprisingly entered the conversation for the top spot in the AFC West, entering Week 12 just two games back of the Kansas City Chiefs.
They are currently on a four-game heater, recently outlasting the Cincinnati Bengals with a 34-27 victory. Quarterback Justin Herbert posted 352 total yards and two touchdowns in the win.
His numbers have been mediocre this season. He ranks 17th in passing yards and 14th in touchdowns this season, but he has been able to take care of the ball with 13 touchdowns compared to just one interception.
It has been Los Angeles’ defense, though, which has provided the foundation for the impressive start. Its 145 points allowed ranks No. 1 in the league — 25 points fewer than second-place Minnesota as of Sunday morning.
