This is more of a question than a statement, but...As a wingman, isn't the mechanic to take one side step, MAYBE 2 to let the play go by you before you trail? 3-4 yards behind a running play seems a lot to me. Taking one side step would put the wingman in a semi-good position to make a ruling on a forward/backward pass. If he throws a flag, I agree that the umpire should be consulted to see if he had different.
