I define a back as inside the tackles and off the line. A receiver outside the tackles and off the line is the responsibility of the wings. I don't want wings looking into the backfield, prior to or after the snap. Wings have the following responsibilities: "snap-tackle-end" which means look for action prior to the snap, read the tackle for pass/run and look for the block on the end to make sure it is clean. Then, they either go downfield for a pass situation or stay home and watch blockers in front of the ball as the play comes to them.

They do not go running reckless abandon down field on every pass. Usually the running backs are going to the short flat for passes. You will have to pick them up to know where they are. And their movement before the snap is key. Now if they are not looking at them, they might miss a play that involves them. Wings also have some responsibility for the forward/backward pass coverage. We are not going to agree on this. Unless your state has completely different mechanics, nothing you are saying about keys and coverage area that is true. Peace

You are giving the Offense a huge advantage. If he doesn't know the play, then why would you bail him out. It's not our job to give the benefit of the doubt.

Let me say this, I have taken this philosophy with me for years and I have never had anyone really make a big deal out of it. Also we give the benefit of the doubt on a lot of plays to not award cheap penalties or to not award points that might not be earned. Once again, if it works for you do it. I am just not a mind reader to know when and why players always move. This is why this is a judgment call no matter how many ways we dissect it. Peace

That's why they have PRACTICE! PRACTICE?? To get the plays right. If he doesn't know the plays, he shoulddn't be in there.

A back is allowed to move and then reset as long as he does commit a false start, it isn't illegal motion or an illegal shift. Whether his movement is a false start or not is a judgment call. As you can see from this discussion there is a lot of disagreement on this and there has been as long as I've been officiating. I don't think you can claim one view is right and the other is wrong in this type of play. Sometimes it's a FS and sometimes it isn't. |
