INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Rookie Zay Flowers had a touchdown reception and ran for another as the Ravens clinched the victory late in the fourth quarter, and the Ravens defense caused four turnovers in a 20-10 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday night for the best record in the AFC.
Lamar Jackson threw for 177 yards and ran for 39 on 11 carries, becoming the fourth quarterback in NFL history to surpass 5,000 yards rushing and the fastest to do so. Jackson has played 82 games, 22 fewer than it took Michael Vick to reach that number.
The Chargers held off the Ravens’ attack in the second half, but Flowers put the game out of reach when he took the ball on a reversible third-and-two and ran 37 yards for the game-winning touchdown with 1:36 left. .
Baltimore (9-3) goes into its bye week with a half-game lead over Kansas City, Jacksonville and Miami with the best record in the American Conference.
Justin Herbert was 29 of 44 for 217 yards with a touchdown and an interception for the Chargers (4-7), who have lost three in a row and are last in the AFC West. Keenan Allen had 14 catches for 106 yards.
