Yes,sounds to me like coil pack may be bad,if you are getting fuel.Should have strong blue spark.

Pull a plug wire,stick screwdriver in it stick close to something metal that will ground ,have some one else,turn truck over,look for good blue hard spark,and for your safety stay away from moving parts that could hit you.

Should be on fuel rail,if you test and get fuel,you might want to check your crank sensor,might not be giving correct postion of crank therefore not sending correct amount of fuel pressure to your injectors.
