Forward or Backward Pass?

Y'all (Fed folks) have the WING make this decision? Isn't R in the best position to make that call? (And aren't the wings concentrating on a LOT of things other than the location of the QB when he throws it?)

5 Man mechanics we have been trained that the quick 'pop pass', where the QB takes the snap under center and stands up or takes a step and then makes the quick pass to a wide receiver, it is the wing's call on forward or backward. After the QB takes his second step backwards, ruling on forward/backwards becomes the Referee's to live or die with.
