If you're in position to look at the defenders head movement then you probably shouldn't need this clue to call it correctly. And yes, the defender can flop backwards and still get the charge if there's sufficient contact.

It's not a 100% indicator, but the laws of physics govern the flop/charge one.

Due to inertia, the head will stay still upon chest contact, at least until the neck (hopefully) pulls the head back. If it all goes together, it's because the muscles are pulling the neck back.
