Rams DB clowns Justin Herbert for 'throwing deli meat'

Lake didn't hold back in his criticism of Herbert

Justin Herbert's 2026 season has been a nightmare for the Los Angeles Chargers. The team remains winless, and Herbert has struggled mightily offensively, throwing at least one interception in every game, including two losses to the Rams. The most recent interception came in spectacular fashion, courtesy of Rams safety Quentin Lake.

After his remarkable return, Lake praised his play on the St. Brown Podcast, calling Herbert's throws "deli meat" and claiming he was "seeing ghosts." It was a savage critique of Herbert's performance, which has been absolutely abysmal, ranking dead last in passer rating and leading the league in interceptions with ten. Despite the offensive woes, the Chargers hope for a turnaround against the Houston Texans on Sunday, aiming to end their losing streak.
