Even if Allen misses Coleman deep, he's not running wide open like Worthy. You understand that, right? Coleman "wins" deep, it's still usually a 50/50 ball. If Worthy wins deep, it's typically not contested barring a bad throw.

No, I’m saying I recognize that you’re being extremely gracious in extending Worthy the benefit of the doubt and failing to give Coleman the same treatment.
For one thing, we can’t just assume Worthy would have made all of the catches he was overthrown this season. He was 42nd in targets this season, 55th is catches, yet tied for 13th in drops. It’s not like the dude is prime Larry Fitzgerald with the hands. He’s also clearly got an issue with getting his feet down in bounds.
In addition to that, you have no idea how many yards were potentially left on the field for Coleman. You’re just ignoring that aspect completely because it doesn’t fit your narrative (a narrative you basically created out of thin air by the way).
