The 49ers got some up-and-down performances in a back-and-forth game Saturday night.

Witherspoon had a rough go of it Saturday night. He was picked on in coverage on the Rams’ third-quarter touchdown drive and allowed receptions of 29 and 22 yards as LA cruised down the field for a touchdown. The TD came with Witherspoon in coverage on Cooper Kupp, who got wide open on a crossing route for an easy score. Witherspoon was also the closest defender on the Rams’ first touchdown and couldn’t wrestle the throw away from Brandin Cooks after arriving late. The corner also had a play where he lost contain on the outside and let running back Todd Gurley bounce one to the edge for an eight-yard gain early in the fourth quarter. Witherspoon is having a good third season, but he didn’t have his best night Saturday.
