I rip on Keon as much as anyone, but it's interesting to look at the list of TD receptions this season.  

 

Keon has 4 TD's,  tied with Puka Nacua, Keenan Allen, Nico Collins, Marvin Harrison Jr,... to name a few.

 

Some others with 3 TD's,  Diggs, CeeDee Lamb, DeVonta Smith, Shakir, Jordan Addison, LaPorta, etc..

 

He also is tied with Shakir with 23 1st downs having 23 less targets.

The kid and I emphasize "kid" needs to get his head straight and he can still make a serviceable WR.

I'm sorry Alpha but this is as basic as it gets for a WR:

 

 

 

That isn't what happened. See the video above. He's just running into open space, there is nothing remotely high level about this other than what Allen does to manufacture a TD from an otherwise broken play.

 

If I'm supposed to take this TD as a big positive step forward for Coleman, sorry but I don't. He has a very long way to go. Every time Allen looked downfield he wasn't finding any of his WRs open and Coleman is a big part of that problem. He also had another drop on a routine quick slant catch. Good to see Coleman back in the lineup but let's be honest about the performance.

Ask yourself Happy, why didn't Josh throw the pass to Knox who was also wide open????

Below, from today's ESPN's "NFL Week 14 latest buzz, questions, news and fantasy tips." 

I like this, always having believed that McDermott truly cares about his players and invests himself in helping them grow as humans.

 

"Keon Coleman's fourth-and-goal touchdown catch Sunday in Pittsburgh held a little more importance than a run-of-the-mill score. The Buffalo receiver had gone through the proverbial ringer. The Bills sat him down in back-to-back weeks due to punctuality issues at the team facility. He was benched for Week 11 vs. Tampa Bay, and though he worked to get back in the lineup the following week in Houston, that was a Thursday night game, so the team stuck with its same offense on a quick turnaround. "It's a professionalism thing -- but he's going to be OK," a team source told me that week. "We need him."

More pointedly, the Bills need receivers who can beat coverage consistently. While Coleman isn't a speedster, he has the size and body control to make contested catches. He's still learning how to operate in a Josh Allen offense where second-reaction routes can be just as important as the original route due to Allen's scrambling. The Bills did not consider cutting Coleman through his midseason issue, I'm told, and it looks like they are sticking with him after he played 33 snaps Sunday. Let's see if he can build on that.

not bad company!

 

What I gather from that is, he’s pretty darn good in the red zone.
