If you watch that play, King's problem is he has zero technique. He's running half sideways down the field, like he's trying to look into the backfield as well to see if the ball is coming his way. He drifts way to the inside like he's protecting a move in and gets at least a yard or two away from Miller, which gives the speedster an unimpeded straight shot down the sideline where King has zero help. Then King runs half-cockeyed, which puts him further behind. What King really doesn't have besides a brain and speed is hip swivel. None. He's a lineman in a DB body.

That's always been his rap.  Since college.  Always struggles with slot type quicks.  His deep speed wasn't supposed to be a problem but it looks like everyone on the D and on the sideline thought that pass was going to go somewhere from 5 to 10 yards down field to get them into FG range.  That's why he was peeking inside and took himself completely out of the play.

You know a play is jaw droppingly bad when an announcer yells out half laughing "Oh my god!" in disbelief that the D/DB let that play happen.
