Chuck,

The members of my association tend to work the pass/crash mechanic opposite of what you have said - "If you've got the a$$, you've got the pass." This generally leaves the Lead to make the crash call - we justify this principle by saying that the Lead has a better view of whether the defender is properly set or moving laterally into the path of the passer.

Will you explain your reasoning for
Quote:
Lead stays with pass, Trail takes the crash.
It makes some good sense in that the pass is generally deeper into the Lead's primary area. Please expand.

In all honesty I don't know that we are regimented enough to really stick with the stated mechanic - it does however have a nice rhyming pattern that we enjoy saying.
