REPLY: I think it depends on the circumstances. If the QB immediately stands up from the snapper and throws out to the wing, it needs to be the wing's call whether it was backward or forward because the referee is back too far to see properly. If the QB drops back, and then throws, it needs to be the R's call since the drop back is probably also accompanied by some receivers heading downfield and taking the wings' attentions with them. Now for the $64K question...in the former case, which wing should have primary responsibility for the call? Comments??
