Witherspoon has had plenty of chances. Like another poster said here. A few games he plays good, then most other games he's getting torched. That go ahead was ridiculous. Like he didn't give a damn. He's gotta be gone. There's no question about it.

Sorry going zero coverage and forcing your big corner to guard their fast route runner by himself and not generate pressure was the problem.

Not failing to keep up with that WR for 6 seconds was not what failed that play.

Witherspoon was playing outside leverage on the far side of the field. We should assume that was what was called. Unfortunately, that puts him a step behind the fastest receiver on the field on a route that runs all the way to the far side of the field. I doubt there are any CBs in the league that could have caught up to Lockett on that route. There is a time you just have to hand it to the opponent for having just the right play call at that time.

For my .02...Witherspoon will be back next year. Once he got healthy this season, he played very well.
