Should the safety had back him up? Sure...but doesn’t change Ramsey getting burned!

He was playing trail-man-underneath coverage like he was supposed to on that play.  He was there to take away and out, in, or comeback route and the safety was supposed to have any route that went deep. The route went deep. 

The safety blew it by cheating too close to the LOS and way too close to the sideline and couldn't recover. 

The only thing we don't know is whether or not Ramsey should have jammed the receiver at the line or not to give the safety some help.  Coaches will often not call for a jam there because they want the trail defender to have a clean shot at jumping the route if the ball is thrown underneath. Just depends if the DC is trying to bait a pickable pass or not.
