Coleman first game

This is what we are going to need out of him this year.  He's going to have a rough go of it at times until he learns how to get off of press consistently.  He's obviously not going to run by or run away from anyone, so he needs to impact the game in other ways and making a tightly contested catch in a big moment for a big play is how he can help us until he learns the nuances of the game.

Happy he had a good first game.  That said, he still will have to answer the question about creating space.

 

Also it was a push off

 

It was a skilled and intelligent pushoff though.

He understands to make the motion quick and violent, before the top of the route while the ref is shielded and doing it without extending his arm.

Very effective and will typically go uncalled.

Love that catch along the sideline playing basketball...

 

Wish Allen would have given him a chance on the next fade ball to the end zone. Seems like he had box out position on the DB

The throw was OK; it was just outstanding corner play and nothing more.

Meh, it was too far and too line drivey...should have been shorter and more loopy.

 

Allen threw a fade ball, would have preferred a back shoulder jump ball to allow Coleman to use his basketball skillset and size to box out.

Definitely not a bust yet. He legit looks like a basketball player out there - I don’t really know what this means or how it translates, just an observation. I feel he can box out any DB in the league

That high point throw to the boundary is a tool that Josh hasn’t been able to use his entire career.  

 

That was one of the first points I made after seeing Coleman's game for the first time.

He gives Allen options to do things that he's never had in this league before.

He could effectively make Josh a better player in the same way that Josh could make Coleman better.

Definitely felt like he'd have had a better chance but Josh got a little too excited, it's one of his weaknesses. 🤷‍♂️ But he also Mario hops defenders.
