Jim and John Harbaugh are set to face off tonight in Los Angeles for the third time as NFL head coaches. John currently holds a 2-0 edge in their sibling rivalry, including a memorable Super Bowl victory.

The Ravens are coming off a tough loss to division rival Pittsburgh, while Jim’s Chargers are riding a four-game win streak and outperforming preseason expectations. Let’s break down the side, total, and a long-shot prop for tonight’s Monday Night Brothers Bowl.

The Side: Ravens -2.5 (-118)

This isn’t a "must-win" game for the Ravens, but it’s as close as it gets as they sit tied for 6th in the AFC. Baltimore is a road favorite, traveling across the country—a scenario that typically doesn’t bode well for teams.

That said, I like the Ravens here laying less than a field goal. In their seven victories this season, the Ravens have an average margin of victory of seven points. Only one of those wins was decided by fewer than three points. If Baltimore is going to secure the W tonight, history suggests they’ll do so comfortably.

The Total: Under 51 (-112)

Expect Baltimore to focus on establishing the run on the road, while Jim’s Chargers will aim to keep the Ravens’ explosive offense off the field.

Here’s the key stat: Only one of the Chargers’ ten games this season has exceeded 50 points. Both teams favor a run-heavy approach, which should result in a slower pace and limited possessions. All signs point to a low-scoring prime-time matchup.

Long-Shot Prop: Derrick Henry 2 TDs (+255)

Derrick Henry enters tonight’s game with an impressive 13 touchdowns on the season. Scoring once feels like a lock, but can he hit paydirt twice?
If Baltimore leans into the ground game as expected, Henry should get plenty of opportunities to shine. At +255, this is a worthwhile long-shot prop to consider.

Final Thoughts

The Harbaugh Bowl offers a compelling storyline, and tonight’s matchup should deliver a mix of grit, strategy, and sibling rivalry. Whether you're betting on the side, total, or sprinkling in some fun with a long-shot prop, there’s plenty of action to enjoy under the Monday night lights.
