Lamar Jackson's impressive performance against the New York Giants, including five touchdown passes and 65 rushing yards, came after a motivational talk from his mother. Jackson's ability to combine passing and rushing has him in the MVP conversation, though he faces tough competition from Josh Allen.

As the Ravens prepare for a crucial game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, coach John Harbaugh emphasizes the importance of focusing on winning this game to keep their division hopes alive.

In Week 13, several standout performances occurred, including Leonard Williams' revenge game against the New York Giants and T.J. Watt's contributions to the Steelers' victory over the Bengals. As teams prepare for Week 14, fantasy managers are advised to consider new waiver wire options, particularly linebackers and defensive players.

Notable players to watch include Neville Hewitt of the Houston Texans, Ezekiel Turner of the Detroit Lions, and Malik Harrison of the Baltimore Ravens. Each has stepped up due to injuries on their respective teams. Meanwhile, defensive ends like Nick Herbig of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Will McDonald IV of the New York Jets are making significant impacts.

As the season progresses, fantasy players should keep an eye on emerging talents and potential streaming options to bolster their rosters.

The Baltimore Ravens faced a significant challenge without star linebacker Roquan Smith in their recent game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Smith, a key player in their defense, typically plays the majority of snaps, leaving little opportunity for others to shine.

With Smith sidelined, Malik Harrison stepped up impressively, leading the team with 13 tackles. Veteran Chris Board also made an impact, showcasing his skills with four tackles and crucial plays. Coach John Harbaugh acknowledged Board's talent and hinted at more opportunities for him moving forward.

As Smith prepares to return, there are questions about how the defensive lineup will adjust, particularly regarding Board's potential increased role.

Baltimore Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith will miss the upcoming game against the Los Angeles Chargers due to a hamstring injury sustained in the previous week. This marks the first game Smith has missed due to injury in over two seasons.

Defensive coordinator Zach Orr emphasized the need for a collective effort to fill the void left by Smith, who is a leading tackler and a two-time All-Pro. Trenton Simpson, Malik Harrison, and Chris Board are expected to step up in his absence.

The highly anticipated Harbaugh Bowl is set as the Baltimore Ravens face the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football, a crucial game for AFC playoff positioning.

Head coaches John and Jim Harbaugh will meet for the third time, with John holding a 2-0 record against his brother. The Ravens, coming off a tough loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, will look to bounce back against a Chargers team riding a three-game winning streak.

Key players to watch include Lamar Jackson, who may need to utilize his running ability against a strong Chargers defense, and cornerback Tre'Davious White, who could see increased playing time following a solid debut. Additionally, the Ravens may need to adjust their defense in the absence of All-Pro linebacker Roquan Smith, with Trenton Simpson likely stepping up.
