Being A Back Judge Questions

This past season was a first for me and my crew in that we had five officials. Personally, I was dissatisfied with the back judge, not personally, but from how the position was being covered even using two different officials. Don't know if my level of expectation was too high or if the effort was too low.

Therefore, I would like input from back judges or others to my questions.

1) On a run up the middle what do you look for?

2) How deep a cushion do you keep between the deepest receiver and you?

3) If the runner goes into a side zone how to you position yourself to cover and what do you look for?

4) When the runner goes out of bounds do you go to the sideline to assist the wingman?
