Dave Portnoy raged over Justin Herbert's quarterback skills after an embarrassing performance in the Chargers' wild-card loss to Houston on Saturday night.
After being favored to win in H Town, Herbert threw four interceptions, leading the Texans to a 32-12 victory, eliminating the Chargers.
In addition to the interceptions, Herbert was sacked four times, prompting Portnoy to record and publish an angry rant about X.
“I'm so sick of Justin Herbert, of people sucking his dick,” exclaimed the Barstool Sports boss. “Make it look like this kid is a young quarterback.”
'Go back to whatever I said, it sucks. I don't care what tools you have. What's the crush on this damn guy? It was bad in Oregon, the team got worse,” he continued.
“He was supposed to be the No. 1 pick in the draft (and) he fell because people looked at him and (said), 'Hey, this guy might suck.'

Portnoy then criticized Herbert and his team for blowing their early lead as they collapsed under Houston's defense.
'You know what sucks? Running when it's six and nothing… You're dominating the game, you fumble in the plus-40, you run 20 yards, you stop, you throw 40 yards downfield across your body and you run double coverage.'
“Leave the Texans off the mat, not that it matters because you're throwing pick sixes every five seconds,” Portnoy added.
“But at some point the media has to stop sucking Justin Herbert's dick, I'm sick of it.” “It sucks,” he continued.
While his frustrations and disbelief were clear, Portnoy admitted to betting on the Chargers to win, which may have contributed to his disappointed reaction.
“Yeah, I'm betting a ton on the Chargers today,” Portnoy admitted. “I'm embarrassed because I also have the Texans to win the Super Bowl, so I'm a loser-loser.”
'Hahaha, laugh at me for betting on Justin Herbert. He is soft. So what if you have good hair? He has bad skin. I don't like.'
Los Angeles' campaign ended after an 11-6 season that saw them finish second in the AFC West.
In his fifth NFL season, Herbert completed 332 of 504 passes for 3,870 yards and 23 touchdowns. He was sacked 41 times, the most in his career.
