Monday Night Football Picks, Odds and Props Week 12 Ravens-Chargers

Preview and prediction for Ravens vs Chargers on MNF

Fairway's Football Forecast Week 12 underdog picks went 2-2 ATS with a pair of outright winners as the ridiculous Raiders found a few more ways to fk-up a game and scoring chances inside the opponents 5-yard line. Two elite quarterbacks and brothers as head coaches lead the Monday Night Football feature on Nov. 25 when the Baltimore Ravens (7-4) tackle the Los Angeles Chargers (7-3) at SoFi Stadium.

The Ravens-Chargers matchup is the only one in Week 12 between teams with winning records. 

- Baltimore Ravens (-2.5) at Los Angeles Chargers, O/U 50 points

I'm passing on the side but Opinion/Lean Chargers way. However, I bet Over the game total and will be interested in more live betting action at leading online sportsbooks including BetOnline.

More big upsets and underdog winners in NFL Week 12 including our pick on the Titans (+8), who won outright at Houston. The Cowboys (+10.5) win at Washington was another big knockout in NFL survivor pools.

Ravens-Ravens-Chargers Star QB's

Prop bets offer better opportunities to win, and especially player props if you're able to interpret data, target matchups and find the best odds and numbers. My weekly winners on player props in Forbes have been popular picks, and I've chipped-in selective prime time props at Off Shore Gaming Association including Week 9 Monday Night Football. 

Lamar Jackson and Justin Herbert will be most popular player props to attack in the featured Monday Night Football matchup. Let's fire on Herbert over 258.5 passing yards. He's passing at an elite rate since Week 7 as his early-season ankle injury has healed. 

- BAL QB Lamar Jackson passing yards: Over/Under 235.5, rushing 43.5
- LAC QB Justin Herbert passing yards: O/U 258.5, rushing 20.5 

The Ravens defense ranks No. 28 in opponent dropback EPA while allowing a league worst 284 passing yards per game. Herbert has passed for at least 279 yards in four of his last five games as the team and OC Greg Roman has balanced the attack more with their healthier, gifted passer. Recall Roman was the Ravens offensive coordinator prior to taking the Chargers OC position, and he's very familiar with the Ravens' personnel and defensive schemes. 

A lookahead to Thanksgiving and Week 13 and the final weekend of November. Updating the Chargers (Pk, -1) are at Atlanta Sunday with the Falcons off a bye week. The Ravens (-2.5 / 3) host the flying Eagles Sunday in a tough spot and Philly is going to get more support regardless of the MNF Ravens-Chargers result. Eagles were +3.5 ahead of the start of season, and situationally and fundamentally with form the Eagles are an advance bet and teaser.

We'll shoot to have another December to remember in the NFL following last season's 14-1 ATS run on underdog picks. 

You can bet on it.
