Jim Harbaugh Downplays Chargers Matchup vs. Brother John, Ravens: 'It is What it is'

The Harbaugh brothers' teams will be playing Monday evening as John's Baltimore Ravens visit Jim's Los Angeles Chargers.

When asked about facing off against his brother Wednesday, Jim Harbaugh noted he didn't want to make the game about them.

"I'm sure he doesn't want to make it about him," Harbaugh said, per Nick Shook of NFL.com. "I don't want to make it about me. It is what it is. Big game, for sure. Two teams having at it."

The brothers have faced each other twice before when Jim Harbaugh coached the San Francisco 49ers (2011-2014), most notably in Super Bowl XLVII, when Baltimore won 34-31 in Feb.
