If you look at pretty much all of their other results, you'll find that this pollster has had a consistent Republican bias. PPP, while it is a Democratic pollster, has not had the same systemic bias, except in a few key races.
As for the coattail effect, well, if Heck, Toomey, and Ayotte all go down, that's some pretty solid evidence for coattails. One specific race with a strong Democratic challenger and a very generic incumbent doesn't exactly disprove what's been a very obvious trend over the past two decades.
