fell off
Declined in amount
Fell off describes a decline in quality, popularity, or performance.
Someone who fell off was once successful or respected but has since deteriorated: That rapper really fell off after his second album.
The phrase implies a noticeable drop from a previous high point.
In its literal sense, to fall off is simply to become detached or drop from a surface: The handle fell off.
